    Joe and Abraham are no names over in the US. Neither has ever sniffed a PPV. If they were fighting today, Pavlik vs Calzaghe would be on regular HBO as neither is a PPV draw in the least. This fight makes dollars and sense. Calzaghe is doing the same by fighting Roy. The winners of these two fights will fight. And one of the losers will fight the Dawson/Tarver winner. Thats how the fight game goes.

        I would like to see Bernard win, but I really don't think he will.

            At least, it will be closer to the second fight with Taylor, I think. Bernard may even be more evasive. Doubt there will be a KO, either way.

              7 or 8 years ago I could see Hopkins taking Kelly to school pretty good. At this point, hes so far past his prime that its getting frustrating for his biggest fans.
              Pavlik UD. Hopkins just doesnt have enough steam to throw the punches he needs to win big fights anymore. Still has great defense and dirty tactics, but its just not enough.

                I think I'd want to see Roy vs Bernard rematch. I think the loss isn't sitting well with him Pavlik vs Tarver would be a nice fight as well I think. Two straight up punchers.

                  Calzaghe has already ruined Hopkins so Pavlik should be able to finish him off if he's nearly as good as the posters here claim he is. Kelly need to get back to MW after Hop and deal with Abraham and then Kessler if he's successful.
