Pavlik Vs Calzaghe Poll

[El Kabong]

But it's a totally different fight, look at Lacy and Kessler when they came to Joe, Joe was more on his game and better able to do what he wanted to do. Hopkins made Joe chase him and it was harder for him to win in a convincing manner.


Kelly knows only one way to fight and honestly he's going to be beaten sooner rather than later the only reason he's a champion is because JT didn't box him good enough and didn't have the stamina to keep him off....I don't forsee Calzaghe having those issues. Sure Kelly has tons of power and is a beast but IMO he's also unpolished in his approach and Joe would take advantage of that.


Kelly will also not have a huge size advantage as well, sure he's taller but Joe will be just as heavy

That would have been exactly my prediction before last night. I know stylistically they're very different, but Calzaghe needs to go back and concentrate on speed only, if he tries to plant his fight without going straight back out again he will be in trouble against Pavlik, and Kelly will keep coming for the full twelve.

Jc needs to be at his ABSOLUTE best, with full concentration, to beat pavlik IMO, I just get the feeling he believes his own hype too much since Kessler, he wasn't sharp at all last night.
