I think if Bhop gets knocked out, and that's a big if, the demand will be too great to ignore...I think then there will be a true mandate!!
They are only a couple of year apart age-wise, and both have great records, and people who follow boxing, seem to want it:hey
ya money talks, and calzaghe seems to want it more then legacy now (choosing jones over pavlik) but if pavlik floors b-hop, i jst cant see calzaghe fighting the 10 yr younger KO artist and risk the biggest thing he has goin for his legacy..... that 0 in a certain column!! but as i said, money talks.....
I don't think the Champ's ego will allow this chapter to go unfinished...I understand that he holds the undefeated record very dear to him, but I tend to think that he has more character than that. Again, this is just hypothetical...we will have to see if Pavlik can even get past old Popkins!!
