Enzo Calzaghe on Hopkins vs Pavlik.

"He beat me, but he's nothing special"


Lol! He battered the hell out of me for three lopsided rounds, but he's nothing special.

Yeah really. Is this the best they can bring. Give him Abraham , Strum , Hopkins , Kessler , Calzaghe. I think he beats them all.

I find Enzo rather boring. He looks like Splinter from the Ninja Turtles and he's just a horn blower. I could perfectly imagine him being 2 feet tall in the 1400s as the little guy who walks in front of the King in the Castle constantly shouting ALL HAIL THE KING at the top of his lungs dressed with a little trumpet. Really, he's so incredibly annoying, not just this but everything about him is just very, very annoying.

He might beat them but he's beating the Gary Lockett's of this World and lining up fights with people like John Duddy and Felix Trinidad.

Fight Abraham he's a middleweight champion and has a legitimate claim to being the best in the division but Pavlik and Arum hardly mention him - Why is that?

He has a mandatory lined up next. Making this fight now is immposible. It will happen though by the next couple of fights. Pavlik will crush him inside of 8. Trust me. He will put Arthur into a defensive shell and pummel him.

Arthur always fights behind a defensive shell and then boom gets you with the counter. Thats Abrahams style of fighting - Pavlik won't force him to do what he does anyway.

Abraham has the better defense of the two easily and hits just as hard as Kelly. One has a dodgy chin and that is Pavlik.

Great defense and power beats limited defense and shaky chin most times.

In saying that I will be cheering on Kelly and believe he can win but I won't expect it to be easy for one minute.

Pavlik a dodgy chin? Are u serious? What cos he took a knee against Taylor after taking 4 or 5 bombs? Pavlik's chin is one of the best i've sen, he walked straight thru Mirandas bombs.

Took a knee against Taylor? You make it sound like he elected to do it when in reality he was hammered to the floor and allover the place. Took a knee haha thats absurd.
Miranda was well weight drained and it has been well documented. Anyone who'd seen Miranda punch before could see he didn't have the usual snap too his shots.

Guess you must have missed the Zuniga fight. Put it this way Calzaghe has depleated Uranium in his jaw and has been down 3x in a 19yr pro Career. Pavlik has been down against smaller men 3x in his 7yr pro career.

Ya shizz.

Edison Miranda was on the back foot against Kelly Pavlik and couldn't get any real power into his shots because he isn't good fighter on the back foot thats why most of his punches were arm punches i wouldn't say Kelly Pavlik has a dodgy chin i think his chin is solid enough but it isn't granite either he has been hurt and put down quite a few times in his career.

Gary must not hold himslef in a high regard obviously .

I can see where Enzo is coming from though when he says Hopkins has different plans. Pav looked pretty straight forward vs Taylor the 2nd time and Joe who has a brilliant boxing brain and workrate barely got past Hop. I think Nard may steal the fight with Pav by a bout a round or two just on experience.

I cannot see it. I see his only ticket to winning is by knockout early or cutting Pavlik up, which he can do. If he does not, Pavlik will get into the fight, throw his usual million punches and simply outwork him. How much Pavlik lands will not matter. If you got a guy that is 4X as busy and who fights full three minute rounds, it will be hard to out point him.

Joe throws alot more punches than Pav . He even landed over 100 more on Hopkins according to the stats yet still alot of people thought Hopkins won

Not much more, especially when it comes to meaningful punches. The reason Hopkins kept it close, was because Joe gave him a lot of respect early and Hopkins got some rounds and that knockdown in. After the 6th round, I mean Hopkins was not doing much of anything. An occasional punch and lots of posing.
