McKart is crafty yes, but Joe is more so. There are a lot of intangibles in this fight. I would not write off Joe yet.

No one has said that joe is counted out of the fight, i havent seen it?

I think it will be a great fight. Very exciting. Its one of those fights where anything can happen.

When i look at the first pavlik v taylor fight though, i cant help but think it will be a simmilar pace. Im not saying that either joe or kelly would be knocked down. But if you look at taylor in the opening rounds and what damage he caused to pavlik, i cant help but think that calzaghe will do something simmilar. The trouble for kely is that joe doesnt get tired like jermaine does lol. Although perhaps joe is starting to lose his pace/stamina a bit and maybe this fight will prove it?

Who knows? Still, what an exciting fight this promises to be, 2 guys who will really battle it out for the belts. Unlike the calzaghe v hopkins fight where there will be shed loads of dirty tactics, cheating and holding going on, i can see this one being a really exciting boxing match!
