Kelly Pavlik Reports Threat

This is when you know your famous. 

Kelly The Ghost Pavlik reported a serious threat to the Boardman police on Monday stating that a former business partner directed some serious words toward the middleweight champ of the world. Someone from Pavlik's camp claims to have a voice recording of the gentlemen expressing that he would shoot Pavlik in the hands so he wouldn't be able to fight anymore (among other things).  

The alleged threatener is Anthony Scandy who was previously associated with Pavlik in a quasi-manager/partner role.  He is in the process of suing Kelly for money that he believes should be coming his way from the first Jermain Taylor bout. 

Its seems death threats and lawsuits are synonymous with boxing, so none of this is considered to be too far out of the ordinary.  However, Pavlik did say that the reason he reported this particular incident to the police was due to the fact that this Scandy character actually has the means (and stupidity) to actually do something like he suggested.

Scandy better hope his picture doesn't get released to the working class Pavlikers of Youngstown anytime in the near future, becuase if he sets foot in the buckeye state, he will be the one fearing for his life.
