    thanks for not answering my question, Getting KOed in a fight isn`t a good example of how good someones chin is.

    A good chin takes punishment over 12 rounds.

      calz has established himself as an excellent, well kept secret of a boxer. even though i see a comfortable margin for calz on the cards, i wouldn't count pavlik out, the kid has TRUE grit and skills to boot.

        I'd feel sorry for Pavlik who'd have no ears after the fight (Calzaghe would box them off!)

          Kessler v Pavlik is the one I wanna see. The big dane won a lot of fans on Nov 3 and I was one of them.

          I think Calzaghe would beat Pavlik on points fairly clearly assuming he doesn't get daft and then only if his chin doesn't fold. I give Taylor a decent chance of beating Pavlik in the rematch as well. I certainly don't think it's a done deal.

            oh so do you really think that Calzaghe would take Pavlik's right hand flush for 12 rounds? don't be silly. you are actually being ignorant about Taylor. he showed a great hard chin up to the point he was stopped. it was an accumulation of punches that did it to him. if Calzaghe would have taken as many flush right hands as Taylor did, he would have been out too. give me a fighter that Calzaghe has fought that brings non stop heat and throw recking ball power punches that says knockout on every shot? there is nobody! im not saying that Pavlik would win but Calzaghe has never faced an opponent that keeps coming foward and never takes a step back. i don't usually do this but
