    Joe Calzaghe was hurt, but not out Cold. One more power uppercut, in my opinion would of blasted out Joe Calzaghe.

    But Chris Eubank did not throw another punch, he was psycholgically affected by the Michael Watson fight.

    I aint sure about that mr kool, even if he had dropped him i am pretty sure calzaghe would have just gotten back up, eubank was a good puncher but he wasn't exactly benn or jackson.

    Pavlik must coninue to Ko guys at this level and defend, the guy has power and is decieving, the last hook vs Taylor reminded me of Marciano's finishing left in the Walcott fight after the famous right...Kid has real potential but its still too early in his carreer to compare him to Monzon,Hagler,Ketchel Etc.

    the real story was
    eubank lost the first round and fought very conservative only pot shotting and trying to counter calzaghe....then in the last 2 rounds his team said search for him...so out goes chris and bang an uppercut and some left hooks smacked right onto joes' jaw and he was rocked more stunned then anything. and calzaghe threw back just as much and eubank came back again to the end of the bell...that was it in reality he was far from being stopped or koed or even manfredoed but he was caught by a good counterpuncher and came back to win the last round which he could of given up.

    It's too hard to objectively rank such an subjective item, like an attribute. But, you could make a good argument that Pavlik is the hardest hitter in the middleweight division today. He's definitely the hardest hitter Miranda and Taylor have ever faced, and that should mean something.

    The fight was a ****ing War, Joe Calzaghe's hardest fights ever, he even said so himself years later. Chris Euabnk took that fight at short notice aswell, he got allot of respect because it was one of his best performances.

    I still stand by my belief that Pavlik's power is a bit overrated. For example, he does not have top 3 all time middleweight power.

    His KO ability have just as much to do with:
    - Stamina/Workrate
    - Ability to tell when someone is hurt
    - Skill at not letting people who are hurt clinch
    - Jab (which makes people not see the right hand)
    - Accuracy

    Am I the only guy who noticed a pause before answering when Taylor and Miranda were asked if Pavlik had power?
