Calzaghe wouldnt even put a dent in Pavlik... Kelly 6'3 75 in reach with demonic power, great jab, granite chin, gigantic heart, stamina, Humble and down to earth as they come with solid handsagainst Joe Calzaghe 5'11 72in reach pitter patting pussy slap power, and twig fingers... Oh and by the way all you Calzaghe worshipers do you remember the one punch that Joe runs into frequently and has trouble against
? THE STRAIGHT RIGHT
Joe dosent have enough power to keep Kelly off of him, kelly will walk him down and have Joe tits up by the 7th... Guaranteed accepting every singleand
bet along with sig bets
Joe needs to shut the fuk up and worry about Kessler
ahahaaa
Did I miss something here?
Isn't Calzaghe just congratulating Kelly and inviting him to take Taylors ringside seat?

Isn't he just doing what's expected?Originally Posted by JT Rock
Remember Taylor-Calzaghe has been linked for ages. Taylor said he was going ringside for Kessler-Calzaghe. Taylor vs Kess/Calz would have been a massive fight, but obviously Pavliks ruined that so he can take Taylor's place...and make for much better fights to boot.

I can understand sometimes when joe gets shit, he does talk sometimes when he shouldn't (i feel its a build up of years of frustration tbh, now hes got the fame he can speak alot) but i agree when the people across the pond hit back about it, i can see where Jt comes from when he show boats, its no secret im a huge calzaghe fan, but watcha fight with me and when he drops his hands or fucks about (like the bika fight) i was on my feet in my local screaming at him to cut the shit it, it pisses me off as much as anyone...
But when a guy is simply giving another fighter props, and just extending the hand for a possible future fight that just about no one would argue with, and love to see, to see him get shit for that is just mind blowing
----
Ice i give you props often for your posts, i liek to read alot of them, but you really seem to look back at alot of what calzaghe done, and the fighters he fought in hindsight, and when you comment on them about being no threat and other things your trying to answer a question that has already been answered...
I'm with you on the fact shieka was not the next tyson, and alot of the guys calzaghe whooped were maybe exposed, or later proven to be nothing special, but you can't boxrec records and say he was nothing, i mean yeah shieka lost, but he was like 23, 24 and fresh off beating johnson? not bad for a kid, i don't know why he lost when he did, weather there was something legit about it or maybe something distrupting him - but i'm 99% sure even if you download the british verison of the fight it says in there something about him being billied as SMw tyson and a big ass threat, along with alot of others joe beat.
Right ok you say hindsight is a wonderful thing ok now im going to turn that back on you and say who was Glen Johnson at that time ?? he got dominated by Hopkins lost to Sosa lost to Ottke got outboxed by Syd Vanderpool infact when he fought Sheika in his last 10 fights he had 6 losses and Sheika only just about scraped through against Johnson and he did not impress against Johnson.Originally Posted by Preme
in fairness johnosn as done sweet Fa since either, but is still known... your agruing with me over something that i didn't say or claim, i'm not syaing shieka was the next tyon or should of been, but he was being said to be a threat and the smw future tyson...Originally Posted by ICE COLD BOXING
and going down the same path as sheika's loss, look at joppy - got his ass handed to him by tito in 5 rounds, yet 2 years later losses to hopkins on points, but when people talk about hopkins they bring up joppy as if he is a good scalp to have have...
Nope not me Preme i don't think Hopkins Middleweight reign is much.Originally Posted by Preme
One problem for Joe in terms of quality of opposition is that since the 168 division was created it has traditionally been very thin in terms of top fighters. Guys like Roy Jones Jr. and James Toney would make brief detours in the divison on their way up the scales, but overall the division has never been deep in talent. That was not something in his control. Joe has fought most of the guys who were said to be the top challengers or tough tests; if it turned out they weren't as good as advertised, that isn't his fault. Now, if you want to put forth the argument that he should have moved up to 175 in order to prove himself against better competition, that's fine.
That's kind of interesting; I'd be curious to know your opinion of Hagler's reign over the divison. The reason I ask is because they are very similar. Like Hopkins, Hagler's biggest victory was over a former welterweight (Hearns and Trinidad) known for his big punch. Like Hopkins, the quality of opposition during the reign was questionable. If you look at Hagler's 12 successful defenses, other than Hearns only Antuofermo and Duran (fighting 25 pounds above his best weight and 5 years outside his prime) were former champions and only Obelmejias would ever become a champion (he eventually won the WBA 168 championship from Chong Pal Park and lost it in his first defense). Was Hagler's reign "much" to you?Originally Posted by ICE COLD BOXING
To me, they were both impressive reigns; they did not duck anyone and fought every top challenger to come along. It wasn't their fault that they were head and shoulders better than anyone else in their division.
