    So, is this really Boo? :lol: No, this guy cuts Joe more slack. He misses that Kelly DID mention Joe after Lockett. So take 4 points off of his "truth meter" reading. :deal

    whatever. All these Pavlik fans going out of their way to convince people that Calzaghe is scared is really getting old. Pavlik wants to prove he's better than CAlzaghe he can do it by fighting Kessler, Abraham, Bute, Dawson, etc. Beating a 36 year old with his mind set on retiring won't mean much to me.

    Until further notice Calzaghe > Pavlik.

    What clowns these Calzaghe fans are. Surely Calzaghe wasn't ducking anyone and fighting no hopers like Gary Lock, I mean Evans Ashira when Johnson and Jones came calling SEVERAL YEARS AGO.

    Cameron Dunkin has also gone on record saying CAlzaghe is NOT ducking Pavlik

    From ESPN.com

    "Calzaghe is a terrific fighter. He's not afraid of anybody, including Kelly Pavlik. It's just business."

    Also Jones vs CAlzaghe has been in the works since before Calzaghe fought Hopkins

    Came calling!? Warren offered Jones $5m to come over and fight Joe, Jones declined(quite rightly IMO). No offer came back.

    i highly doubt this happened either. as far as i'm aware no effort was made on either side to make the fight happen. warren and calzaghe are the two who should have pushed harder for it being the smaller name etc. looking for the big fish but there was no ducking going on between joe and roy.

    you're an idiot. You probably thought Hopkins would knock Calzaghe out, and before that you probably thought Lacy would knock Calzaghe out. And now you probably think Pavlik would knock Calzaghe out.

    Also, Calzaghe beating Hopkins didn't mean much to me. I expected it. Hopkins is 43. You're the idiot who thought Hopkins would win.

    I agree no-one should mention ducking, i didnt. Obviously you cant prove any offer coz i wasnt there, But i read the warren interview where he says it and ive heard Roy say why should i have gone to Wales. I said IMO roy was quite right not to go to Wales as he was the far bigger name. I agree all the effort had to come from the Calzaghe camp if they wanted the fight that bad. I was responding to someones post saying Joe ignored them when they came calling.

    Good to hear from you. JC has been trying to throw his fans some cover and has been running his mouth about Pavlik. Trying to say he offered to fight Pavlik twice before and Pavlik turned him down so it was Pavlik ducking HIM. Well, Pavlik's camp finally answered and you see the answer in the article linked too. Never happened. We had reasoned that it didnt' make sense as Joe told it. Now we have back up. But now Joe is saying there is ducking going on which makes it interesting, because the word duck is now in play from Joe himself. Guy just doesn't know when NOT to keep his mouth shut. Good stuff really. :)
