And the best fighter on Pavliks resume is Jermain Taylor. The same Taylor who was given the two fights with Hopkins and scored a draw with Wright where lots of people thought he lost and had two horrible performances against natural junior middleweights and you could argue he lost to cory spinks. Not exactly a great fighter is he.

Pavliks resume is overated.

I don't see why people think Hopkins getting Ko'd is a possibility.

Pavlik may have good power at 160 but as his second fight with Taylor showed it doesn't carry plus the fact he is a slow accumulation puncher and Hopkins is hard as fuck to hit Cleanly. Pavlik will not land enough to put Hopkins in any trouble.

Pavlik fighting Hopkins is the biggest mistake he has ever made.

Him fighting Calzaghe would be another mistake.

Calzaghe just has the perfect style to beat him and i'm surprised people actually give him a chance against joe.
Calzaghe is open to the right hand, he has proved that in the past. Kelly has a lethal right hand, he has proved that in the past.

Hopkins knocked Calzaghe down with a right. Kelly Pavlik hits 10 x more harder than Hopkins. So if Hopkins can put Joe on his ass it's a scary thought what Pavlik could do.
The Hopkins knockdown was more to Calzaghe being off balance and not seeing the punch. Hopkins has one of the sneakiest most accurate right hand in the sport.

What Calzaghe did to Kessler would be what he would do to Pavlik. Pavlik would have success with his right hand early but then Calzaghe adapts to it and takes over the fight.

By the way Pavlik does not hit 10x harder than bhop

Thats stupid talk .
