Calzaghe Vs Pavlik?????

[C-Lo]

This has been an ongoing debate for quite some time now. It's only a matter of time before the Calzaghe fans see this and talk their boy up.

Pavlik wins this one. Joe hasn't seen anyone like him yet.

I said Calzaghe by points before the Lockett fight and I'm definitely not going to let that mismatch influence my thoughts on any fight.

It would be a rough fight for Joe (especially if he's slowed down more) but I assume he'd do enough to win a pretty close decision. He'll get hit some but he can probably take it as long as he's not getting raked consistently every round. Pavlik's a big puncher but against the top guys its taken an accumulation of punches to eventually get the stoppage.

I may change my mind at some point. For now I'll stick with Calzaghe even though I'd be rooting for Pavlik.

I honesty think it would be a bloodbath. And send Joe packing.

I don't think he or Enzo wants this fight. I do though.

I just dont see Calzaghe amiking it to the end in one piece. He will be busted badly. Pavlik bats punches and seems like a more complete fighter after every fight. His defense has improved drastically since Miranda. He seems stronger and more accurate. His foot work is alot better and never seems off balance. He is complete. He posses a bigger threat than Jones and any one at 168. Or maybee any one at 175 besides Tarver. He can do it. I know he can and in the back of all of the the minds of the oppisition has the same feeling too. Make us proud as always Pavlik.

People dont take into account Pavlik is not only the biggest puncher Calzaghe will have met , hes 6'2 -6'3 , and Calzaghe does get hit alot with right hands , Hopkins - Mitchell - Reid , i dont want Pavlik to leave the MW division yet , but i think he can KO Joe .
Pavlik may not be a master boxer but he is so impressive , hes like a tank.
His jab is also excellent.

Pavlik KO 8
