——————————————————————————– IBF light heavyweight champion Clinton Woods says he has received an offer to face Joe Calzaghe. “I’d be a massive underdog, but I’d fancy my chances against him,” he told BBC Sport, “and for the British public, it’s far bigger than Calzaghe against Bernard Hopkins.” No comment from Calzaghe’s promoter Frank Warren, who has also been talking to Golden Boy about a Calzaghe-Hopkins clash. ——————————————————————————– The big Kelly Pavlik and Jermain Taylor rematch is headed to Las Vegas. The bout will take place February 16 at the MGM Grand Arena.
