Its funny how no one is willing to even wait and see what happens?

In his entire career, Pavlik has had one imprssive win, knocking taylor out in the first fight. Now don't get me wrong, i think calzaghe should fight him before he retires, i would be very very dissapointed if he doesn't.

But he hasn't retired yet. He stands to make an insane amount of money for fighting Roy jones Jr, a fight most would expect him to win.

Why risk blowing a huge pay day by fighting taking pavlik first and maybe not coming through with the win? Calzaghe isn't washed up, but he sure as hell isn't in his prime. So the natural is, Roy Jones, build up the Pavlik fight then retire.

The more people think they wont get the fight, the bigger it can be when it happens. Promoting 101.

No one seems to care Pavlik has a date set to fight Mora so fast though, that was done vry quick when there are fighters out there like AA, or a step up with Kessler on the cards.


Easy tiger, i am and always will be a fan of Joe Calzaghe.

I have been to a dozen of his fights over the last decade. If Joe fights Jones then Kelly Pavlik great but if Jones is his last fight i would be gutted. Like i said there is only one fight for Joes legacy wise and its Pavlik, Roy Jones is utterly shot and will be 40yo when they meet.

Its all about the $$ which is a shame Joe made enough 97-05 fighting old fighters and mandatories although i put half the blame on Warren.
