Very possible. I think Calzaghe would be the fav. going in. However Calzaghe isnt getting any younger and I think Pavlik is only getting better. Pavliks work rate would be just enough to pull the upset in a close fight. I think Calzaghe is starting to slip a little and its only going to get worse. But im glad/ hope this fight doesnt happen.
We should be talking about how Pavlik is going to beat Hopkins and Calzaghe will be making Jones learn how to lean on the ropes. Cant wait untill Calzaghe beats Jones around for 12 rounds.
Pavlik's only chance on beating Hopkins is just too throw more which isn't all that hard to do and in a close fight which it will be Pavlik will get the decision being that he is the undefeated rising star in the sport. why would they give it to a past it 43 year old veteran? This was a bad bad fight for pavlik to take as Hopkins will make him look really bad and he won't get any credit for the win unless he was somehow able to stop Hopkins which is near impossible.
I really like jones but at this stage he won't be able to handle Calzaghe's workrate.
he does not have a cast iron chin.. unless u missed the first fight with jermain taylor, he was wobbling around the ring for a full minute
and roy hits harder than jermain
margarito has a cast iron chin
haha, i was just about to say that.
There is little doubt that prime Jones would beat Pavlik at any weight, but the scenario would be different than Jones's fight with Woods. Pavlik has a knockout punch and a cast iron chin. Jones wouldn't even try to hurt Pavlik, he would just stick and move to another one of his boring points victories.

Alot of people won't admit this but it could go either way. If Pavlik catches him, thats it for Jones. With that said though I'd bet on Jones but its not a safe bet like many are stating.
I don't see how you can have Pavlik beating Calzaghe unless by the time they got a fight sorted Calzaghe was past it. Calzaghe loves fighters who come forward for him to counter on, not only that but Calzaghe doesn't tire ( his workrate is better than Pavliks) and he has a very tough chin. Pavliks style is pretty much tailor made for Calzaghe. Calzaghe wins a comfortable UD.

I would leans towards Pavlik but Calzaghe on points is very possible. I just see Pavlik as to much of everything for him at this point.

It what it comes to every thread. (insert any fighter in history) vs "prime" Jones. It has nothing to do with the other fighter but Jones always wins. Why? What did he do thats so great? You look back at his career and I dont see it. Boxing historains dont see it either.
But im saying to this to a kid with prolly more threads/posts about Jones than I have total. Jones in his Ava, Jones in his sig and YALL MUSTA FORGOT in his user title. lol. I think we all know whos mind is made up.
yeah godforbid i have him in my avatar and sig, that MUST mean i hang from this dudes nuts all day right?
because OTHERS do it... so i MUST....
quit stereotyping.... i have roy losing to half the fighters out there right now
Kelly clearly wants the fight. I don't think he would win, But he clearly wants to fight Calzaghe.

Some Pavlik fan actually thinks he would beat a Prime Jones :rofl:
NO! Pavlik cant beat prime Jones period. but Pavlik can beat joke-cal-slappy any time, then & now...
Calzaghe would beat Pavlik....but there's no way Pavlik is afraid of him. Even though he is so difficult to beat, no one is afraid of Joe Calzaghe. He's just not that type of fighter anyone would fear.
"Oh shit! The windmill of death!"

Do you need the points that bad to make a thread like this?
What does your sig mean?
you keep saying the same shit over and over... shit like "obviously youve made up your mind" "nobody could beat prime jones in your mind"
sure sounds to me like your the one whose made up their mind.

I thought Jones didn't look quite the same starting from the Harding fight, his footwork just looked that little bit slower.
That's about the time where I started being annoyed by him. He was too tentative against harding, Harmon, Gonzalez, etc....
