      Well he did hurt LACY with a million slaps, but that was an over hyped "MINI MIKE", but other than that.... Dudes looked like **** every fight since.... IMO he has never been impressive anyway... Lets see how he does with Jones... or should I say Lets see what Jones does to him...

        Yeah, he will be in the H.O.F while you keep calling him a chicken **** from your arm chair. Nobody has looked good beating hop. Jones looked about the best, and we all saw that fight. don't you hate it when a fan who never boxed talks slick about a figher they don't like lol. It's funny to read too.

            Of course the senile ***ish promoter wanted them to force Pav/Cal it would be a ridiculous pay day for him and another notch in his march towards defeating Golden Boy Promotions.

            Whether Calzaghe ducked Pavlik out of fear of losing is negligible, because Jones presents a pay day that will surpass every Joe's done in the past combined. I still think it's laughable to retire after barely beating Hopkins (Someone please give me a round in which Calzaghe landed a flush punch) and then beating Jones, who he should have fought years ago.

              Is Williams taller than Pavlik?

              Pavlik is like 6ft 2 1/2 and I heard Williams is actually 6ft 3 ish?

                Joe didn't want that Roy, he wants the Roy that got beat twice, badly.... Only time will tell before we see which one comes to the ring. I don't think its the one Joe's hoping and praying for.......

                    Jones is an all time great and arum needs to show more respect calzaghe is simply going where the money is, speaking of ducking winky has been calling pavlik out for the longest but you don't see bob clamoring to make that fight.

                    Bob can be very hypocritical at times I think even this slightly faded version of roy beats pavlik why not make that fight after jones beats joe, it will be a major payday for pavlik and it wont feel all that bad losing to an all time great.

                      I thought that too but I see Jones defeating Joe and moving up to heavy like he said he would do and like you said, Joe goes where the money is. So I see him fighting Pavlik. So with that I see Joe loosing his next to fights, Jones by a UD and Pavlik by a KO. Joe retires after his two defeats, Jones moves up to heavy and who knows what will happen, while Pavlik becomes a world champ at LHW. But that's just me and my wishful thinking...
