    Calzaghe is too skilful for Pavlik, and too fast. He will take away the range that Kelly needs to unload those punches, be very hard for Pavlik to hit and overwhelm him with shots from all angles. Basically, just watch the Kessler fight to se how Joe beats Kelly. Joe is just too good.
    Look at Cotto vs Margerito, Cotto is the better boxer, he's faster too - but once Margerito starts landing all that goes out the window. Saying Joe Calzaghe is elusive would be comical, he may have fast hands but that's only because he puts nothing behind them. The actual speed difference isn't big, Joe just throws shorter punches and allows him to throw them in volume, Pavlik hit's him even once and he's gonna feel it. On top of that, Calzaghe won't be hurting Pavlik any time soon.

    I will agree Hopkins makes anyone look bad (since that's the common theory), but standing and trading like Calzaghe will try to do with Pavlik is suicide. Pavlik punches 3 times harder than Kessler and throws twice as much.

      Football is a rough tough sport and you break bones instead of a finger nail like in rugby. I mean no offense when i say it either, but it is just completely gay for men with long hair and short shorts playing and smillilg over getting a ball and tickling each other when they finally get it.

          The difference is that Calzaghe is way better than Cotto, and Pavlik not as much of a beast as Margarito. Margs chin allows him to keep on coming. Pavlik won't be able to ignore Joe's shots in the same way. I wouldn't even be surprised if Joe turned out to be the stronger man. I agree that at some point, Joe will stand and trade with Pavlik, and I think you'll be surprised that Pavlik will not be able to hurt him and force him back. Even if Pavlik can hurt Joe, this will just make him tighten up his game and outbox Pavlik.

I know a lot of people who were.

            I know pavlik and he aint no jeff lacy!
            Almost the same response every time you mention Lacy to a Yank.

            "I actually KNEW he ******, so **** you!"

            My arse.

              Stop wearing 50 layers of padding and you'll have a point.

                Kessler has proven super middleweight power.

                Pavlik has fought once at Super Middleweight and couldnt KO Taylor.

                How that equates to him having 3 times more power than Kessler is beyond me.

                But most of your logic falls under this category.

                    But no matter how realistic you are, all they do is reply with "yeah but" or Joe is god and will not be defeated. Its like a broken record yet they don't get the hint that the BS STILL isn't working. So what do "THEY" result too? They turn to insulting American Sports lol classy!!!! You really do gotta love the Joe Calzaghe fans, they are a trip. Hey did anyone CHECK how many MEDALS "WE" (US) have won in the olympics lately..... a lot more than sum in here for SURE and were only half way!!!!! lol check the stats.....

                      you have never seen a Pavlik fight clearly. All those things you said would never work vs Pavlik.

                      also, If Hopkins can hurt Calzaghe, Pavlik most definitely can. I think you are comparing Pavlik to Kessler, they have nothing in common. Pavlik fights like a cleaner Margerito.
