Calzaghe v Pavlic what if?

[JamieFo]

Just wondering your opinion, neg rep thing means nothing to me.

Nobody is going to compare Pavlik to Lacy at this point.

They will never fight, Enzo is scared of Pavlik. But if they did, I see Pavlik knocking him out in mid-late rounds.

They say Enzo is a boxing brain, Hell I guess his ass is, He's keeping his boy out of harms way away from Pavlik.

How much respect can you give a LHW for fighting the MW champion of the world

Funny how Calzaghe stagnated in the SMW for years , now all of a sudden hes shouting out guys from lower weights , you missed the BUS joe ,

[Markusdarkus]

Calzaghe would dominate Pavlik.

[Tins06]

I dont think there is any "in the middle" guys left for pavlik or Joe is there.

Your either part of one groupie or the other.

If the thread becomes serius then i think it's more than likely that the loser of Joe VS Pavlik will be called a fraud for a long time to come.

I should stay away from this. I really should but I can't.

I genuinely think that Pavlik would knock Calzaghe out. That wouldn't make Calzaghe a fraud by any means but think he would simply fall victim to a fightering entering their prime while he would be on his way out. His skills peaked a few years ago at Lacy I think, you could see some deteriation in the Kessler fight, had to change his style a bit and use his mind to win the fight. Then in the Hopkins fight it's clear he's on the downslide, a great victory for him but he's clearly not the same guy who was giving Roy Jones type performances for a few fights there.

Pavlik on the other hand is increasing his athletic ability every fight and is really becoming a middle weight punching machine and I really doubt Calzaghe would be able to keep up with that. I think a boxer with a great game with their feet will give Pavlik problems. I don't think that's Joe at this point and Pavlik I think is good enough to cut the ring off and not get stuck behind Joe's jab. I think it would be Pavlik but that doesn't take anything away from Joe he would have been an aging fighter by the time that happened as he has clearly peaked.
