    October 18th is the target date. If Joe wants to go fight another old man in RJJ, let him. Kelly will then prob fight Rubio in September.

    Arum also stated that should KP vs JC happen,

    Pavlic should definitely take this fight now he's still young and has time to come back and clean up the Middleweight division.
    Arum is right it will be a monster, a classic in the making, I hope he's gonna put enough money on the table for Calzaghe because Frank warren is a tight ******* and could scupper the deal.

    Yeah, just like RJJ ducked Michalczweski saying the $$$ wasn't there & he wasn't going to Europe to fight. Good excuses.:yep

    You really think Pavlik would duck anyone?

    He is a throwback. He'd fight anyone.

    good excuse also by michalczweski offering peanuts and not wanting to fight outside europe, they were ducking each other vice versa

    You got me all wrong. I know Pavlik would duck no one. I made the RJJ comparison to illustrate what Joe C will use an an excuse not to fight KP.

    $$$

    BTW, Lockett went to the hospital after Pavlik rattled his brains complaining of vision problems. Hope he OK. I also read somewhere that Gary said KP hits like a truck.

    I updated a thread with this news this morning from the local rag. Also, someone in another thread quotes Joe in his autobiography as stating he will never fight Jones because of his losses.

    Plus, the best fights the best. These guys both think it's them. Collision course I hope.

    The same Joe that after beating Hopkins said that " Roy is legened and I will love to fight him " That Joe ??

    Whats Joe's #1 priority ? I think its $$ Who ever brings in the most $$ I think thats who he fights ..I can't imagine Kelly brings anything close to what a Roy Jones fight would bring even today !!

    Not sure about Arum, but Pavlik has stated without hesitation, that he wants Joe before he is "one day older". These guys are two top dogs. They are being held by the collar waiting to be released.:good
