Pavlick v Calzaghe - who wins?

[Sugar_Shaw]

Ok another question, if Calzaghe beats Kessler AND Pavlik is he p4p number 1 in the sport?

He'd be very close

But how is Pav gonna tee-off on his right hand against such a slick southpaw as JC ??

[ICB]

Actually a very simple reason why Pavlik CANNOT beat JC.

Its pretty clear from the Taylor fight that Pav's main and pretty much only weapon is his right hand, well thats gonna be F****** useless against a southpaw, especially one who has such excellent footwork and technical skills as JC. pavlik is all about his jab-right combo for power, against a lefty that aint gonna work to well. Pav would have to lunge to get the right around and that leaves him open for the counter, something JC is very good at, he loves come forward fighters.

Useless against Calzaghe ?? uhh bud Calzaghe gets caught with right hands all the time thats his weakness so i don't know what your on about he was decked with a right hand against Salem he was caught many times with right hands vs Reid and he was caught plenty of times vs Woodhall with right hands so your arguement there is totally wrong.

Anyone on how Pav can win when his prinmary offensive weapon his RH will be neutralised by JC's southpaw stace ??

[Bomp]

Calzaghe win by decision IMO. Would be a helluva fight.

[Preme]

both calzaghe and kessler would ruin pavlik, he has nothing but power... shit i new this would happen if he won, its always the same.

[jman]

I havent seen many calzaghe fights but the few I've seen, he has huge stamina and just punches and punches, I think it might be tuff for pav against him, not saying Pav couldnt win, but hed face a guy bigger, probably stronger , just as skilled, more experienced and who has just as much heart as pav does. I'd pull for pavlik and hope he would whip calzags arse cause hes my fellow american

[leftylee]

Pavlik late KO

[Mr140]

lets not touch this until we see the JC vs Kess fight think we are jumping the gun just a bit dont you think

[slk123]

I'd put Pavlik over JC
JC over Kessler
Kessler over Pavlik

I have become a huge believer in Calzhage. I was not always...before I thought he was a fluke that if he ever fought outside of England he would be exposed.

no more....the man is a phenom, a freak of nature. He just does not stop punching, he never tires and he is an efficient strong puncher. Age is the only thing that will beat him.

Calzaghe is not a strong puncher at all.

[THE THIRD MAN]

From what i saw of Pavlik against Taylor he should stay well clear of both Calzaghe and Kessler.

[Taeth]

Calzaghe or Kessler would destroy him.

From what i saw of Pavlik against Taylor he should stay well clear of both Calzaghe and Kessler.

Why's that ?? he beat a very talented fighter like Jermain Taylor in his prime who fought at his best.
