    For Calzaghe to redeem himself and stand a chance of not going down in history as King Of The Bums, he needs to get off the crack, shape up and give his finale.
    Jean Pascal would be a good come back fight for him and incentive for Pascal as well.
    At LHW who takes this?

    there were some awful performances by calzaghe

    He was so use to fighting in his own comfort zone i think he got shocked when he got a couple of livewire opponents like the bika fight

    He accidentally picked a opponent that was decent and nearly lost the fight , there really were sum mediocre perfpormances by him

    Calazaghe was a fine fighter. He could have taken more chances earlier in his career, but he's been retired for a while now and it's time for people lay off and appreciate what he did do. He's not an atg top 10 type, but one of the two or three best fighters from Britain ever.

    Pascals explosivness and power may be a big problem early and Joe may even hit the deck

    but Pascal reminds me of Judah in the sense of after 4 or 5 he gases bad

    and he has a low out put

    I love both fighters

    I think Joe struggles early but just out works him from the mid rounds on to a clear UD

    That's the way I see it. In the early rounds, Pascal would be dynamite and hurt/drop/TKO Calzaghe within the first 5-7 rounds. After that, Pascal may become susceptible to Calzaghe's stamina and "whirling arm" technique.
    This, of course assumes that Calzaghe in his come back actually maintains his stamina, which after smoking a ton of crack, I seriously doubt.
    Things being what they are, I would have to predict a early rd 2-3 KO by Pascal. :yep

    It's funny, the amount of hate Joe gets, he seems to win the majority of his ESB fantasy match ups..

    Not a big resume, but undeserving of the amount of hate he gets..

    LOL, Crack heads don't bounce back. If Joe ever made a come back, expect it to be short and sad with early Roy Jones type KOs.

    Greatest american heroes outslapped.

    Rich and famous.

    Praised by HOF trainers and boxers.

    Critizised by nobodies on the Internet.

    Calslappy could have done worse.

    :D

    Oh, he would have outslapped Andre Ward as well, you know.

    :D
