    I have never seen any proof of that. In fact the gate and PPV numbers would say otherwise. Other than Joe telling his local rag that he made $10 mill (coincidently? the number being floated as his guarantee to fight Pavlik) I have never been able to find any credible figure on what Calzaghe made for his fight against Jones.

    He took an easier fight for more money, not exactly a suprising decision given Calzaghe's previous antics. Calzaghe was a bit of a fraud but he would school Pavlik.

    Anyway, this isn't about who "ducked" who, it's about who you think would win if they fought two years ago, I'm guessing you picked Pavlik KO Hermit?

    if roy jones and pavlik met at 170-175. pavlik would lose that as well even tho roy is shot to pieces.

    this thread isnt about why the fight wasnt made, its who people think would win. comparing the performances and styles to make a decision, the only reason you are trying to change the topic into ducking is because you cant admit or shall I say wont admit that your boy is over rated and would have gotten his ass handed to him by joe

    :rofl

    Love the fact that there are 20 morons on this forum who think Pavlik would win this.
    I mean come on! Is there an easier hypothetical matchup to predict?
    Calzaghe by unseemly massacre.
