    Does joe really get respect if he beats pavlik? Seriously, he beat undefeated Jeff Lacy, and we all just looked at is as "Jeffy Lacy was a bum and joe exposed him" However, before the fight many people concicdered lacy the next great thing/current great thing - Wouldnt we do the same if he beats pavlik. People don't respect calzeghe and they never will. The guy can't be fighting into his 40s hoping people finally agree he's damned good

      Lets say he beats Jones fairly comfortably, but doesn't look brilliant, then goes on to beat Kelly Pavlik and looks excellent, like he did against Kessler, what will you say then? How will you rate him?
      Not likely to ever happen.

      Very very unrealistisc BUT yes he would be among greats

        My rating on Calzaghe wouldn't change as I expect him to beat both Jones and Pavlik (if the fight happens) decisively. The Pavlik win would be a nice name to have on his resume though.
