After beating up an old man on April 19th, Calzaghe names his dream opponent....

[PeROxiDE]

Joe Calzaghe has stated in a newspaper interview that after he beats Hopkins in Vegas, he wants to go out with one more big fight, namely the undefeated middleweight champion Kelly "The Ghost" Pavlik.

Taken from "The Sun" today:

"The Welsh Warrior wants to go out with a **** by beating 43-year-old Hopkins at light-heavyweight and then taking on another undefeated fighter in Kelly Pavlik for his swansong.


Pavlik first has a June 7 defence of his middleweight title against Calzaghe’s stablemate Gary Lockett in Atlantic City.


Calzaghe declared: “The biggest fight I want is Pavlik.


“He is the last one to get my juices going. He’s 33-0, I’m 44-0. It doesn’t come much better than that."

Read the whole interview here.

I hope this fight comes off, Calzaghe will absolutely humiliate Pavlik and, with PBF's recent opposition, it will propell him to P4P #1.

Arum wont let it happen. He has yet to milk Pavlik's full PPV potential.

Calzaghe is not NEARLY as good as he is made out to be. He is not getting past Hopkins first of all, but if he wants Pavlik after the loss im pretty sure everybody is gonna be picking Pavlik after they see who Calzaghe really is.

Pavlik KO7

Too bad Calzaghe is gonna get embarrased by Hopkins.

It could actually happen, something like this:
Calzaghe beats Hopkins easily and dominantly, but looks **** in a **** fight. Arum weighs it up and decides Pavlik stands a chance against Joe. Pavlik signs the contract then gets handed his first loss somewhat decisively.

Calzaghe is not NEARLY as good as he is made out to be. He is not getting past Hopkins first of all, but if he wants Pavlik after the loss im pretty sure everybody is gonna be picking Pavlik after they see who Calzaghe really is.
