I love Joe Calzaghe!

[LEGION]

Smash what has Calzaghe down to show he is way better then Pavlik i mean he in the eyes of alot of people lost to 43 year old Hopkins. Now i know Hopkins hard to look good against but come on if Pavlik does a better job on Hopkins then Calzaghe did then he has nothing then.

Well at the least Calzaghe has proven himself more at a higher weight; where we are really just now going to see what Pavlik can do up there. Pavlik will have some problems with Hopkins and as much as I hate to say it. I think Calzaghe; as long as he doesn't get into a war on the ropes with Pavlik; will most likely beat Kelly.

Taylor gave Pavlik alot more trouble at not only the higher weight in the rematch, but by better movement and not getting caught on the ropes; but Joe won't gas like Taylor has a tendency to do. Also I think Joe takes a better shot than people think, and though Kessler isn't a mega puncher; he did pop Joe several times and Joe didn't seem fazed in the least if I remember right.

Pavlik throws more punches but until he gets an opponent hurt and to the ropes they are all straight punches and I just don't see Joe hanging around waiting to let them land. IF Pavlik hurts Calzaghe and gets him to the ropes Calzaghe better run; as Pavlik is the best finisher today IMO; and that's when he's the most dangerous. But I don't see Kelly wearing him down enough unless it's very late in the fight possibly; and in the last couple of rounds if Joe feels he has it I don't see him giving Kelly any unneccesary oppurtunities. Joe by decision as much as it would hurt me to see.

Alot depends on how or more importantly if Pavlik beats Hopkins; and does anyone know what weight kelly and Joe would fight at? Assuming LHW correct?

I think it was more of a body shot that hurt Taylor and made him slow down in the later rounds i think but i could be wrong. Calzaghe weakness is the right as you can see in the Reid fight so all i while say is this if Pavlik does a number on Hopkins i think he may as well beat Calzaghe. I think his jab and right are going to land and in the later rounds i think hey may drop maybe even stop Calzaghe remeber Legion he not getting any younger maybe Pavlik can make the man look old atleast i hope.
