A few weeks ago, Kelly Pavlik and Jack Loew were driving on I-80 near the Ohio-Pennsylvania border when they stopped at a toll booth and were immediately recognized by the collector.

“She held up traffic until she found something for him to sign,” said Loew.

Since then, Pavlik has gone virtually unnoticed, holed up in training camp in rural California, Pa., where his life revolves around sleeping, eating and boxing, not necessarily in that order.

“There’s not much else to do,” said Pavlik.

Pavlik is three weeks away from his bout against Bryan Vera, a 164-pound bout scheduled for 10 rounds on the undercard of the Manny Pacquiao-Antonio Margarito fight Nov. 13 at Dallas Cowboys Stadium.
