Kelly Pavlik said that Joe Calzaghe is a fraud

[RichCCFC]

Calzaghe has had hand injuries all his career which is why it's so amazing he's still even here at close to 37 years old. Calzaghe has given up his power yet he can still compete at the very top of his game by using his other strengths and that's what I call an elite fighter. If you appreciate boxing and how hard the sport is, you would give Calzaghe his dues. He had a wrist injurey at the age of 14 which was supposed to end his career yet he came back a few years later and still dominated.

His diversity and ability to adapt tactically in each fight is his biggest attribute. It has enabled him to defeat top level fighters despite losing a great deal of his power from his hand injuries.

Sorry guy's where's ****ing source for this?

I might make up a few of my own threads.

Pavlik doesn't talk like that and it's bad on his character the lame monotomous GodofWar would make it up so. Kid needs checking into a home quick time, OCD only gets worse.

Pavliks redeeming himself from going along with a mandatory with a complete bum, and is fighting someone 2 weight divisions lower, mmmmm, nice. Just outlines how different the two are.

And whom would you like him to fight?

Fraud Fraud Fraud

GodOfWar still hasn't recovered from his hero's betrayal

[Johnny Rebel]

I have never once accused Joe from ducking Roy. All I hear is Roy wasn't prepared to fight Joe. The circumstances of the two just were not conducive to a fight. It is as simple as that.

Many on here accuse Joe of ducking "top" competition when he beat every ranked fighter in his division for a decade but never name these "top" fighters. The fighters they are most likely referring to are Jones, Toney and Hopkins, like the fights were makable except for Joe not wanting them. Calzaghe has proved that when giving the opportunity for big fights he makes them.

[Kris Silver]

And whom would you like him to fight?

I totally see why he's fighting Roy whom will challenge him on fronts others can't such as speed and tactics. In an ideal world if he's won, I'd love to see him go on to beat Pavlik if he hasn't lost by that point, and then Dawson. Were not in an ideal world though, and can't always have what we'd like. He's 37 nearly though for christs sake, and has long said he'd like to not keep going on too long.

I'd love to see Pavlik fight Abraham, for Joe to have had the Johnson and Hopkins fights years ago, and Mayweather stop pissing about and ducking Cotto. You don't see my crying and ranting on about it though, such is life...

Calzaghe also fractured the scaphoid bone in his wrist against Manfredo and was told his career was over, yet Joe fights through the pain and has some of his biggest wins since then. The scaphoid bone is one of the hardest bones to heal and when JC retires he will have to have surgery (bone graft) on the wrist for it to heal properly.
