And yet when was the last time you heard him call out Abraham? Point proven. Blame Arum all you like but Pavlik is every bit as reponsible for ducking Abraham.
i do blame arum for avoiding the fight BUT i still say the champ has more pull than he gets credit for. arum can block the abraham fight but kelly should have pushed for it
What makes me laugh is ...Joes fans say that BHop and Jones avoided JOE (which is bollocks because Joe wasnt even regarded a good champion till he beat LACY)...JOe goes out of his way to avoid a top P4P fighte rin his prime(Pavlik) Credit to Hopkins for beating Pavlik,,,,Hopkins took the big challenges when he had the opportunity.
Joe Calzaghe's history will be re written a thousand times on his way to the HOF. We should remember what REALLY happened now and document it because it will be skewed, for better and worse, is the next few years
You think Joe is good like Roy Jones and Bernard Hopkins he fight the shot version of this fighters.....He even got a knockdown from this Grandpa boxer! don't give us your illusion man!
calzaghe was very selective yes. pavlik at the time was way too much risk, not enough reward. did joe earn his right to retire? yes. but what he did during his career should be kept in perspective: a lot of safe defenses, a lot of **** talking at the end and not a lot of substance
You know what was even more pathetic? Abraham calling out De la Hoya after knocking out Miranda. atsch:rofl
haha, yes but i think david haye called out oscar to: the mexico vs britain rivalry could have yet another glorious chapter
