Who ya think will emerge from the Pavlik-Hopkins fight and the Calzaghe-Jones jr. match up? Personally even though imma fan of hopkins i don't think he'll win, his age is gonna start catching up with him like it always does every legend. But i do not think he'll get knocked out:-(, he never has:!:, but if he does, then it's time 2 hang em up:hi:. And Pavlik is a knockout artist:scaredas:, so it will be a very interesting fight 2 watch because Hopkins is Deadly on those counter-punches:bananaso he might be Dancing with the Stars in the ring, but if he does get hit, he'll be seeing stars:tired. On other subjects, this is a 2-way fight, one 4 Calzaghe in the fact that he will officialy be one of the top 2 or 3 best middleweights of all time because he will have beaten the best ones back 2 back:good. Also that he has never lost in his pro career which has streched out almost 15 years:shock::shock:. And 2 with Jones who has not been taken seriously since he lost three in a row, 2 by knockout:dead and beating Calzage would definetly put him in position 2 in a way revive his already hall of fame career.:happy
I think Calzaghe & Pavlik will emerge victorious. However, if Hopkins should beat Pavlik, then no praise will be high enough for B-Hop. Not in my view anyway. Hopkins is a rare breed, given that he's what, 43? & still fighting at top level, that's an achievement in itself. Show me another 43 year old sportman who's in as good shape as Bernard coz I don't think there is one? If Calzaghe & Pavlik both win, its logical for both to face each other, but well all know its not going to happen. I think that has more to do with Calzaghe than it does Pavlik. Calzaghe knows fighting Pavlik would do more for his legacy than facing Jones will. Can you imagine if Jones wins lol! If he lost, Calzaghe would not box again.
I have Pavlik by UD and Calzaghe by KO. Roy was knocked cold by Glen Johnson. If Glen can KO Roy so can Calzaghe. Roy has a Glass Jaw.
Welcome Joker.:good By the way,dont be shy about using emoticons.Thats what they're there for,so you dont need to hold back.
Pavlik by a tight ud, unless Hopkins gets old in the ring which is bound to happen someday then we may see a Pavlik stoppage. Calzaghe has to be the favourite. Most likely result is a close split decision for Joe. However he is slowing down and may well get caught with some big shots. If he does get caught badly then i expect Roy to jump on him and finish the fight.
Pavlik by TKO inside 10 rounds. That's no direspect to Hopkins. I just think we are going to see a classic example of a guy who took one to many fights against the wrong opponent. Calzaghe by a very WIDE decision or late TKO. Roy simply doesn't have enough left in the gas tank to deal with Joe's work rate, stamina, and chin.
