Chad Dawson right now but i don't think pavlik stand much of a chance because his hands and activity level are no where near where they need to be to beat Calzaghe and his defense although underated is still average and Calzaghe's fast hands will take advantage of that.
mgm in vegas
have fun!!!! just got back from the garden this weekend... going to fights is nothing like watching them thats for sure.. the energy is crazy... if floyd fights cotto... im goin
Pavlik. Calzaghe would befuddle him with his craft but Pavlik's got a good chin and wouldn't be discouraged from coming forward looking to land his bombs. We don't know how Dawson would react to being thrown of his game plan and his lapses in concentration would effect him, Joe wouldn't give him time to solve the Calzaghe riddle.
Chad Dawson would be hard, but his chin isn't granite, so I wouldn't wonder if he at least would get knocked down
Chad pretty much gets dropped everytime he gets cocky,both times he's been dropped it was because he got over confident and stuck his head out to his opponent waiting to be clipped,both of his KDs where flash,Calzaghes also been down 2 or 3 times,harder then Dawson
It would be a great fight,i think Dawson has the skillset to beat Calzaghe,he has the skillset to beat alot of the top fighters,hes very talented,it would be close,its between Dawson and Pavlik,Joe leaves his chin out,he couldent do that against Pavlik
Spent too long analysing Froch in my last post and forgot to say that Chad would be the most difficult IMO. He's 6'3 with fast hands, but again, may lack the beard
Froch I believe.
That Chad Dawson guy wouldn't be easy.
As I've said, I think Froch has BAGS of potential, once he has fought Inkin to challenge for a title, I'll feel more confident about backing him. That little wobble when Reid hit him with a lucky shot, niggles at the back of my mind - he didn't go down, but it just niggles me. No questioning his power and he's pretty quick, wish he wasn't so laissez faire with his defence though.
You know him don't you??
