Calzaghe with his A game decisions Pavlik handily...
Remember though Pavlik and Hopkins are opposites.

Ultra defensive compared with ultra offensive.

Win or lose Calzaghe will look better than he did against Hopkins... well sorta, he wont look good sparked out but I doubt that will happen

Calzaghe has a good chin and we all know I'm not a hater... Quite to the contrary I think Joe C is a great champ...

But make no mistake, he has NEVER fought anybody with the pop Kelly has...

People keep mentioning Kessler above. Kessler, although his record shows a 74% KO winning percentage, look who they're against... Used up war horses and tomato cans...

Kessler is actually a very well schooled technical boxer... More that then anything... He is not the power puncher people make him out to be...
And the bulk of Pavlik's KO's have not come against inferior comp?

Pavlik is a hard puncher, for sure, but he's KO'd a gassed Taylor. The only other fighter worth a mention is Miranda. Ancient old Howard Eastman had Miranda rocking all over the shop
