Man u guys need to get a life. you are all content just to talk about the same subject allday everyday. It's really quite sad. Rather than spending your life critising the achievements of someone else you shoud go out and achieve something yourselfs

Doesn't make sense that he wanted to fight Pavlik after Lacy, back then Pavlik wasn't very well known at all and didn't he already sign on to fight Kessler by the time Pavlik became champion?

yes sir.....Calz is talkin' pure ****! I guess after all the years of dealing with the boxing politics.....boxers have learned to sound like politicians!

That would have been the Bika fight, a tuneup against an opponent who would raise Calzaghe's American profile a bit. The way Pavlik was perceived back then I can very easily imagine his name coming into discussions for that fight.

and why would calzaghe be trying to fight pavlik after lacy? pavlik was a nobody in 06.

But acording to everyone state side calzaghe only fights nobodys ???

Pavlik wasn't really known back then so it doesn't make sense, it wouldn't have enhanced his profile in the States one bit. Pavlik had just beaten Zuniga at that point and hadn't even fought McKart yet. I don't even think Pavlik had fought on HBO or Showtime yet at that point.

Wouldn't that fight reinforce that statement? Know one could of seen Pavliks potential at that time.He was an underdog in both the Taylor and Miranda fights and didn't have one stand out name on his resume during that period.

It probably is lies.
