Calzaghe vs. Pavlik. Who wins?

[BattlingNelson]

It looks as if Joe Calzaghe might not fight Roy Jones Jr. in his last fight. Instead he is looking to get back to 168 lbs and fight middleweight champion Kelly Pavlik.

This is an interesting fight. It's volume vs. power, it's determination vs. determination. Who do you think would win?

[The Surgeon]

Zag wins for me coz he naturally bigger and is more versitile - As good as Pavlik is all he really does is walk in behind a solid 1 2, Joe will solve that

i think calzaghe will win a wide UD..
i hope im wrong..

my brain says calzaghe ud

Power vs Ring Smarts
Workrate vs Workrate

I'll take power over slap.

If the fight is signed I will bet with anyone that has Pavlik winning.

You picked Hopkins too

Some people just need to learn...

to be fair though I picked hopkins to win a very close fight. I also said that Hopkins would knock him down early.

So I wasn't off by much considering it was a Split Decision and Calzaghe did go down.

ill bet skills

What people are overlooking is that while Kelly isn't as naturally gifted as Joe, with the speed and athletic ability Joe has, Kelly has demonstrated an ability to overcome things like that (see both Taylor fights).

Nothing Joe could hit Kelly with coming in would discourage Kelly from coming forward, so it would make for a very interesting fight.

I wouldn't a tall be surprised to see Kelly put Joe on the canvas at some point, and if that happens Kelly would definitely start looking for a finish.

I want to see this fight.
