"Joe Calzaghe is Scared of Kelly Pavlik," Says Jack Loew - Boxing News
Thanks for the article, but from the perspective of the Calzaghe camp why face Pavlik when you can fight a known legend, that is knowingly past his prime and will knowingly bring more money? I would be super impressed with Calzaghe if he fights Pavlik, but realistically it's hard to picture Old man Joe taking any other option than Jones is well not likely.Quote:

Yeah, I bet edison dreams about a rematch with Kelly. Problem is, I just don't see him winning against Pavlik; though I'd love to see a rematch. I wouldn't mind seeing Pavlik get a fight with Abraham as well.Quote:

I like the way Kelly keeps quiet and his trainer does the trash talking. They both know in the same situation they'd take the money too.
EDIT; I actually do like the way they do that, I'm not being sarcastic.

Lol. You'll need a disclaimer for every post now:DQuote:

The Roy fight probably brings twice the money as a Pavlik fight. Its much less risky, he'd be silly not to take it. 20 years from now, people will forget that Jones was a shadow of what he was and a win over him could look good on Joe's resume. He should fight Jones and then Pavlik.
I'll have to set a signature saying something like "this post reflects my honestly held views and is in no way meant to be confrontational, controversial, sarcastic or offensive." :)Quote:

Enzo's knows how Joe fairs against Lockett, they are in the same camp for goodness sakes. It was the measuring stick and Enzo saw what he did...and there will be no Pavlik fight. Period.
Joe is not the best of the millennium that title belongs to the hated money May.
Why doesnt Joe just fight em both?
