Kelly Pavlik Speaks on Possibly Fighting Joe Calzaghe

[abadger]

It's not picking Calz over Pavlik that makes you a homer, you're just one of a few who are obsessed and always post about the guy. JC is a very good/great fighter and will be Pavlik's toughest chalelenge. I think I don't care for Joe because I don't like his akward style. He throws alot of looping punches and "slaps".

I post in all kinds of threads, but Calzaghe is my favourite fighter. If others don't like him its cool, but when people post ignorant things like "Pavlik KO Calzaghe", I do tend to respond. Fair enough, I think.

All Yanks are asleep or going/just go to work. Some rain is delaying me right now. So don't go and get too arrogant yet.

Arrogance is ingrained in the British. It is because we are so superior.

Stop making excuses.
You could say the same about football in the UK, biggest sport in the world.

Soccer players are generally stamina athletes but have little strength. On a side note, this has been the wettest decade in Missouri in five decades. It will not stop raining and I have been working almost sixty hours a week trying to get my landscaping done as well as my mowing. So enjoy sitting on your comfy couch.

That tends to come with having the largest empire for so long, it gets a bit like that here too.

That has the be the most random reply I've ever read to a discussion. What's stamina/strength of a footballer got to do with the topic we've just been discussing?

We don't have couches in Britain. We live in crude huts and sit on piles of rocks.

Brit fighters are entirely more overated than U.S. fighters, mainly b/c you can count the number of elite british fighters on one hand.

There lies the fundamental issue. You have one real chip in your shoulder kid, with it a blindness to the outside world.

You mention Lennox is good, how is Calzaghe being over hyped based on the records? He's not faced quite as top opposition, but he's also never lost and beaten some powerful top guys out of his prime, in the last few years. The British are behind Hatton in theyre droves whom is good, but not behind Calzaghe as much whom is better.

You like some idiots, love to claim America's best at all sports, you hilariously like to ignore a fundamental aspect of comparing, which is POPULATION ratio. That's right, it's like GDP if you will. Of course you have MORE top level athletes in the sports you choose to play in you idiot, you have more ppl. Your 1/20th of the world population. Even counting 3rd world countries and others not in a position to produce many athletes, you should have at least 1/20th of the worlds top athletes. Not counting 3rd world countries and others not able to produce athletes, is probably more like 1/18th.

You have even now, pretty much the most to invest, spend on sports, resources. Fact is other countries are more than competitive with you. Even the sports you don't recognise as much like Soccer, Rugby and more, you have many more being trained than many other countries yet you don't compete highly. So you actually with the best resources, train the most people, yet often don't produce 1/17th of the worlds top athletes in many sports. The irony is given some basic understanding of comparing such basic things, your so way of the mark your almost underlining your failing in many sports to even level, let alone beat other countries.

The UK has the p4p#3 in Calzaghe, and until recently #8 in Hatton whom is still top 20 like Haye. Calzaghes top of 2 weight divisions, unbeaten. Hatton only beaten by the p4p number one, and top of his division. David Haye is top of the Cruiser weights, a HW win and likely to climb the ranks highter than the USA there too. Enzo Mac also top 10 in CW division. Clinton Woods no. 8 in the LHW division. Carl Froch no. 6 in the SMW division, regarded by some as 2nd or 3rd only to Calzaghe or Kessler. Junior Witter no. 3, Gavin Rees no.5 in Jr WW division. Amir Khan 7th in the LW division. Nicky Cook no. 7 in the FWs.

List goe's on dude. And all are over rated? Fact is a country 1/6th the population size of the USA, the UK competes very closely with the USA. All your arrogant stuff proves is your own blissful ignorance, and bias of US fighters. abadger and others already presented facts elsewhere to expose you posts as utter rubbish, this is another. Go home you've lost.

Even the sports you don't recognise as much like Soccer, Rugby and more, you have loads more being trained than many other countris yet you don't compete highly.

I think Joe C would get the decision on him.
