Pavlik's trainer Jack Loew slams the Calzaghe camp.

[LondonBB]

That's a hell of a big leap to take from one good shot that caught Calzaghe off balance and with his guard down. Fact is, Hopkins couldn't have gone all out for eight whole rounds, that's precisely why he was looking to tie him up. Unfortunately, Ol' Father Time catches up with us all, and has done so with Hopkins a few years ago now.

Landing stats have showed a whole lot more landing from Calzaghe in all his recent fights, so I think you're mistaking connecting with causing damage. I still think Calzaghe's chin would take him through the distance, if not to victory against Pavlik.

Maybe.. but the point I make is Joe makes a hell of a lot of mistakes, and Hopkins made him pay for one, but unfortunately didn't bother fighting for the other 11 rounds. Joe does connect alot yeah, but how many of them do damage? I think there was 1 good punch that honestly hurt hopkins.

I would love to see this fight . I think this will be the first time Calzaghe will fight a true primed champion. I think Joe gets knocked out.

Id love to see the fight aswell.

But how do you know pavlik is in his prime? You can only say when a fighter is in their prime by looking back after their career ends and seeing their greatest victory/performance.

Calzaghe fought kessler...errrrrr, was he not in his prime?

Hopkins was pretty damn good seeing as he bashed up winky and battered the crap out of tarver, at 42 the guy had adapted his game to make him a very tricky fighter, the fact he beat winky and totally destroyed tarver goes to prove how good he was...but he then got beaten by the 'weak, no power slapper' called calzaghe.

Lacy not in his prime?

Reid not in his prime?

Pavlik is 26, most athletes wont be in their prime till they are 30, calzaghe is past his prime, hes 36 years old!

So, let me ask the question...if calzaghe beats pavlik is he still a 'weak, slapping, no power brawler'?

This goes exactly back to the original prediction i made as my very first post on this board:

Calzaghe ends up fight
1. hopkins
2. jones, or the winner of tarver v dawson
3. pavlik

For his final 3 fights.

My prediction was that calzaghe beats all 3 of them and has defeated the best fighters america has had to put against him.

He will retire after having beaten:

1 eubank
2 reid
3 lacy
4 kessler
5 hopkins
6 jones, tarver or dawson
7 pavlik

Yet...hahahahaa even after defeating those great opponents PROVING he is the better fighter...people will still call him a 'weak, slapping, no power brawler'.

HAHAHAHA LETS WAIT N SEE IF MY PREDICTION COMES TRUE

Youve gotta admit though...it is quite funny that if calzaghe does beat them all and my prediction comes true, then its quite funny that people will still insult him.

I guess that makes eubank, reid, lacy, kessler, hopkins, pavlik, jones ALL A PILE OF TOTAL UTTER SH*T!!!

If calzaghe beats pavlik, then surely i can be justfied to call pavlik a SH*T FIGHTER?

Seeing as calzaghe beat kessler, kessler is a SH*T FIGHTER?

Hopkins is a SH*T FIGHTER!

When jones gets beat, he is a SH*T FIGHTER!

Afterall, theyve either been beaten or will be beaten by the 'weak, slapping, no power, brawler'...therefore THEY ARE EVEN WORSE THAN THAT...=======PURE SH*T FIGHTERS!
