Joe Calzaghe called out Pavlik?

[Clegg]

nah, calzaghe is not to be trusted especially on his word because he said himself in his book that he would fight pavlik and not fight rjj, but now he won't fight pavlik and is fighting rjj. calzaghe is a blatant liar

Calzaghe didn't say that he'd fight Pavlik in his book.

Now who's a blatant liar?

[Addition]

Zag continues to contradict himself non stop so I understand why people find it hard to believe Calzaghe.

[T-97]

he said himself in his book that he would fight pavlik

His book never even mentioned Kelly Pavliks name.

To be honest, if anyones lying it's probably not either of the fighters. Joes not ****** enough to say something like this knowing it's untrue, he knows he'd get major **** for it and look bad. Infact still might. So he's only saying it cos it's likely true.

Pavlik took awhile to deny Calzaghes claims, and has Bob Arum? Nope. Arum didn't even tell Pavlik he was on serious negotiations with Warren to fight Calzaghe. Why would he tell him he turned him down twice a couple of years before? Pavliks probably right in what he's saying, but poor bloke just isn't kept in the loop about his potential opponents.

That's why we have the situation of one guy adamant he offered 2 fights and was turned down, and another guy adamant he didn't turn them down.

Their actually BOTH right.

Think about it.

Pavlik seems like he wouldn't lie, Calzaghe seems like a shady character. Plus, Calzaghe didn't make much sense because he basically said he would have fought Pavlik when Pavlik was a nobody... So, is Calzaghe making front of his own hand picked resume?

I'm not sure about the care part, but Calzaghe has clearly told lies before. From his book to now fighting Roy Jones for example. He has a history of making **** up. Just saying.....

When?

exactly but look who your talking to. I didn't bother with that. They ignore evidence of that kind of stuff.

Like you said PAV is NOT the guy to be like that. Joe and his father are known to be fools..

What evidence?????????

How was that lying?? When Calzaghe wrote his book, Roy Jones was still lying on the canvas after being Knocked the **** out twice. Pretty much everyone thought he was done.

How is saying he didnt wanna fight him at that point equate to "lying"?

[Dirk Diggler UK]

I love how when Cazlaghe says they offered Pavlik a fight, its immediately discredited

But when Pavlik says "oh no he didnt", everyone takes it as concrete evidence. Funny ****.

Yeah, act as if you fanboys don't treat Calzaghe's word as if it's the word of God.

I never said that what Calzaghe was saying was true. Personally Im not privvy to such information and neither is any **** on here. So how can we take one person's word over the other?

I can see it being a case of Calzaghe wanting a tune-up and picking Pavlik but Pavlik was never really asked about it and his team refused straight out cos they wanted to get him more experience. Thats just my opinion
