"Joe Calzaghe is Scared of Kelly Pavlik," Says Jack Loew

[AndyShitHot]

Oh my god, sometimes I can't believe that there are such idiots on this forum. Already talking about how Joe has ducked Pavlik. There has only been talk of Joe taking on Pavlik since he beat Hopkins and now he's ducking Pavlik when his next fight hasn't even been announced yet. Here's the news ****heads:

- RJJ is the bigger fight, whether you like it or not.
- Pavlik is a MW and wants to take on the LHW Champ, Shouldn't he move up to SMW and take on a top Contender at that weight class first.

I like Pavlik and would love to see this fight made but RJJ should come first in my opinion and Pavlik should continue to enhance his rep so he can meet Joe in 09, hopefully in Cardiff. However enhancing his rep doesn't mean continuing to fight garbage Middleweights.

Why would Joe Calzaghe be scared of Pavlik? Even if Joe ducked him to fight Roy jones it would be because of the money he would make from fighting Jones.

[hitman hatton]

its obvious Joe feels safer with Roy than Kelly. Jack always talks the truth, like it or not! Kelly has a way better chance of beating Joe than Roy and the whole forum knows this!!!!

i dnt blieve joe "feels safer" or is "scared" of pavlik...end of the day it comes to money and like many people have stated already, we all know joe would make **** loads more �s fightin roy jones,rather then pavlik.

joe said this might be his last fight...so he wants to go out with a biiiiggggg payday...dnt get me wrong id love to see pavlik vs joe bt end of the day its wot u bring to the table....roy just brings more $s with him and the past history of bein a great fighter during the 1990's along with joe

no matter wot u say every1 on here knows lockett was gona get his face smashed in lol dnt compare locket to calzaghe thats just silly

It could just be down to Joe wants to stay at light-heavy, and Pavlik wouldn't want more than super-middle

really?

As a boxing expert i think kelly pavlik would knock "sweet" Joe out in six
rounds or less! thats why hes fighting tune ups like roy jones...

So RJJ is a tune-up and Pavlik would knock him out in six...and you consider yourself to be a "boxing expert"....Might as well become a marbles expert buddy

Both parties have a point. RJJ is a legend in the sport and a fight with him brings that aura to the match. On the flipside, Kelly Pavlik is easily the P4P guy for Joe to take on if he wants top comp before he leaves the ring.

[ELPacman]

Loew is very much correct. Joe is scared of Pavlik after what he saw what happened to his stablemate. I felt like Enzo thought he had a really good shot with Lockett beating Pavlik. After seeing how 1 sided dominant it ended, he was in shock and definitely doesn't want his son in there. They used Lockett sorta as a measuring stick because I clearly remember Calzaghe mentioning afew times they were thinking of Pavlik because he only wants American fighters and it would have to be big, and what bigger than the undisputed champ? Well I guess that all means nothing now that Pavlik is still undefeated and has knocked out his buddy.

I agree with Jack Loew. However I dont think it was the lockett fight that scared them away. It was more the high risk of losing Joes 0 to a younger and stronger fighter. As for Pavlik cleaning up the division in 4 rounds, I think Jack is underestimating Arthur Abraham. While Pavlik would be the favorite in a Ghost vs AA match, I dont think he will finish it in 4 rounds or by a KO/TKO seeing as how AA survived 8 round with a broken Jaw and none other then power-punching Miranda trying to finish him off.

Good post for a

Who compared Lockett to Joe Calzaghe? Lockett is a legitimate bum while Calz is one of the biggest stars in the sport today and may go down as one its all-time greats depending on his future plans!

I NEVER compared that bum to Calz! thats something a dumb ass would do!
