    I wasn't being poster specific MK, nor for that matter was I specifically referring to a likely Calzaghe-Pavlik outcome. I was more agreeing to the general criticism of the trend of some to simply write of as 'exposed' any undefeated fighter who then loses'.

    It's really amazing with how little shame he is enhencing his status as biggest bandwagoner in boxing boards history... Those mythical match-up threads...

    You would think one would start to reflect after some years, but noooo... You can count on ridiculous threads like these popping up, whenever given the chance.

    People need to wait and see what The Sly One has to say on a big fight and then base their picks on what he says.

    wrong. a healthy pavlik could beat joe. unlike rjj, pavlik has courage and would gladly trade with joe even if it meant taking some slaps on the chin.

    This is false. Roy has as much Heart as the tin man.DLH quit one fight. Roy quit 2. He quit last night as well. He just wanted to survive. Oscar also moved up and fought bigger better guys. Roy moved up to fight Ruiz. Level of competition, conduct inside the ring, this is a false statement on your part. Roy is as balless as any ATG could be. How soon you homos forget the DISGRACEFUL effort Roy displayed against Tarver. That was ATG cowardice. Oscar quit against a guy who was much bigger, stronger and better. Roy quit toTarver.

    Well, with DLH, the quit job was basically part of a business agreement.

    Besides, I don't think DLH's really wanted to get in the ring in years.

    It's like Lennox Lewis, he was mentally retired as soon as Tyson didn't want a rematch.

    Golden Snatch only fights because HBO, et al, want him to because everybody makes money and it helps his promotional company.

    Who the hell knows why Jones, who said for years he wouldn't end up like he has, is still in the sport to give performances like he did Saturday night.

    It was sad watching him at the Calzaghe-Hopkins post-fight pretty much beg Calzaghe for the opportunity to get a beating like he got.

    including yourself.

    styles make fights.

    unlike rjj, pavlik has courage.

    pavlik WILL trade with joe unlike that coward, rjj, and hopkins for that matter who wouldn't trade with joe.
