Pavlik Would Have To Fight Calzaghe Near 175-Pounds

[Rkicards]

Pavlik is an underdog against Abraham? Who has Arthur beat besides Miranda? And how many titles has Miranda won again? If/when the fight comes off, I can guarantee you that Pavlik will be the favorite.

Well Abraham beat Miranda faster and convincingly than Pavlik did.

[Jim Jeffries]

Well Abraham beat Miranda faster and convincingly than Pavlik did.

Miranda stopped Howard Eastman in 7, whereas Eastman had gone the full 12 with Abraham 8 months earlier. That really didn't mean much in the end, did it? Holyfield stopped Douglas in 3, where Tyson struggled for 10 rounds 9 months prior, does that mean Holyfield hit harder or was better than Tyson?

Just to be clear, if you think Pavlik has any chance whatsoever of beating Calzaghe you are nuts.

Wow, what a persuasive argument. Bravo!

[VIVA MEXICO!!]

A possible fight between Undisputed super middleweight champ Joe Calzaghe and WBC/WBO middleweight champ Kelly Pavlik has gotten even further apart. Calzaghe's promoter Frank Warren has made it known that Pavlik would need to move up by nearly two-weight divisions to fight Calzaghe. He said the fight would have to take place at a catch-weight between 168 and 175. The probable weight being eyed is 170. [details]

this guy calzage is a coward. he saw the devestating effect of pavliks true middleweight power and he wants no part of it.

It's not worth it right now.

It's not worth it right now.

No it isn't. The guy's got one defense of his middleweight titles, and people want him to jump to LHW?

All this pound for pound nonsense gets in too many people's heads. Let guys fight the top contenders in their divisions. If you unify and/or defend ten times, then you look for a move up.

I know you don't like Kellerman, Kayjay, but I assume you agreed with what he said after the Lockett fight. Clean out the division, and make your own legacy.

Pav better not take that Cal fight, and try to come back and fight Abraham. You are overrating Pav, and using your Americaness lol to utter a nothing point. When you call a fighter like 40Cal scared, who should take you serious about anything concerning boxing?

boof! I didnt mean to hurt ya feelins homie! but its true fam, the boy Calz is scared of ghosts!!!

Oh c'mon... can we just say they both did very well against Miranda and not judge a potential fight on that ridiuclous basis. One could say that Kelly did better because he only lost one round where as Abrhaham lost two... You see how ridiculous this is?

No... that is ridiculous. You make fights people want to see. I don't want to see Pavlik against Lockett. or Pavlik against Rubio. I want to see Pavlik fight someone who he might lose to. That's a whole lot more fun than watching an execution. I understand Calzaghe fans feel differently. Pavlik fans want to see challenges not ************ gatherings.
