    There are 2 tremendous fights on the horizon.

    Jermain Taylor vs Kelly Pavlik (Middlewt. Title) Sept. 29, 2007

    and

    Joe Calzaghe vs Mikkel Kessler (Super Middlewt. Title) Nov. 3, 2007

    Which fight has the greater potential to be a classic that we'll all remember & talk about for years to come & why?

    If Pavlik knock out Taylor it will be huge.

    Calzaghe is damned, even if he beat Kessler he will not get respect
    for that same as he did not get from beating Lacy. Is Kessler beat Calzaghe
    people will come with plenty of recent examples of Calzaghe decline.

    Both fights are EXTREMELY HUGE! Both have their own identity & will represent a signature win for each victor.

    I am. It has been more than 4 years since the fight and people still talking about it.

    From your list though I am leaning towards JC vs. MK.

    Lacy was not a very good boxer. All power, no technique. It was a good win for Joe, but not a great win. Kessler dies not have that much vareity to his game. He's all just 1-2, 1-2, 1-2.

    But a very good 1-2 I might add.

    Lewis was out of shape. If he had trained hard for Vitali, it would have ended sooner. But Vit did a good job as long as it did last...against a fat LL.

    You wouldnt say this about Lacy before Calzaghe fight.

    If Kessler lose then it will be obvious how limited and lucky he was,
    if Calzaghe lose then it will be obvious he was way past his best and
    his recent oposition was "carefully selected" .. Calzaghe is damned!

    7-1 for Calzaghe vs Kessler so far. Looks like all the Euro Fight fans are stuffing the ballot box!:yep

    But I did say that about the overly muscular non-skilled haymaking winger.
