I think Kelly Pavlik is much more dangerous than Jeff Lacy was. I had seen a few of Jeff Lacy's fights before the Joe Calzaghe fight, and he looked like an average fighter against Omar Sheika, Syd Vanderpool, and he had never faced an elite fighter like Kelly Pavlik has. If Joe Calzaghe beat Kelly Pavlik i would give him all the credit in the world.
But then there would be a NEW young guy Calzaghe MUST beat. That's what happens with older fighters, Ice, there's always a new kid on the block - currently Pavlik.. before him Kessler.. before him Lacy.. we only learned (accept for the majority) the TRUTH about these guys after Calzaghe smashed them
Well to be honest i give him credit for the Mikkel Kessler win because Mikkel Kessler was a proven good fighter. But i don't really give him credit for the Jeff Lacy win because i never really thought much of Jeff Lacy, but if i was in Joe Calzaghe's shoes i would retire after the RJJ fight.

And you know you said theres always another new kid on the block ? well i think your answer right there is Chad Dawson. If he beats Antonio Tarver which i think he will, you can bet your life savings that fans will be demanding a Chad Dawson vs Joe Calzaghe showdown.
