Joe turned down the chance to fight Jones, will now accept to face Kelly Pavlik

[Left Hook Tua]

I agree, Jonesor Tarver would have been an easier option for Joe, this is by far the biggest test for him at the moment



me too!!!!!

he better win......

you know the anti-calzaghe will be out in force if joe loses.

[KESSLER]

Kelly, kill this punk.

[jberg]

its good wat hes doing. not winding down his career with any easy fight against RJJ. giving the people wat they want

[Yokoyo]

Kelly, kill this punk.

Kelly can't, it's not physically possible.

It's like getting Paulie Malignaggi and asking him to KO Mike Tyson.

[Motofan]

Im a bigger Pavlik fan then of Calzaghe, but I think Joe beats him. Hope Im wrong. I think it will be alot like the Kessler fight.

he better win......

LULZ ... i know ... funny really how many nuthuggers and haters there are out there!!!

[KESSLER]

Kelly can't, it's not physically possible.

Pavlik knocks his ass out.

[*2TOUGH*]

How ****** is this, Joe Calzaghe KILLS HIMSELF to make 168lbs... this is going to be one way traffic and Pavlik will beat Joe by KO. Frank Warren is a prick, he should have made the fight for 175lbs with Pavlik. Joe Calzaghe is blinded by $$$$ and cant see that he will lose due to his weight.

[ATFsven]

joe wins this with a pretty easy UD.
I aint a nuthugger and i am a big fan of both... but Joe is way too big, fast and agile for Pavlik

[The_Italian]

This just shows everyone that Calzaghe wants to fight "the best" out there.

Jones would be a much easier fight for him, maybe too easy.


This is a total 50/50 fight.

i agree. roy jones would have been a much easier fight.

he's going straight for the best...

its good to see fighters do such things, especially since he'd probably make a lot more money fighting jones and not have as big of a risk in terms of losing goes.

to fight pavlik he will get paid less (roy jones jr is a much bigger name) and has a MUCH higher chance at losing.

its good to see fighters make the right fights...
