    Calzaghe is an extremely mobile, durable, swarming volume puncher.
    Golovkin is a measured boxer puncher with good power and no apparent inside game. Calzaghe wins a decision

    GGG is very good at cutting off the ring.. He would have problems doing this against Calzaghe as he would always be moving hitting GGG with quick combinations.

    I wouldn't be surprised if Calzaghe got dropped, but I see Super Joe outpointing GGG in a hard fought fight. Stylistically, I think it is in Joe's favor, not to mention he is bigger.

    Too big, too fast, too skilled, too Calzaghe. Does the Lacy fight ring a bell?

    GGG will be an atg at middleweight, but he cannot beat the GOAT at suppermiddle. No one can.

    Im not sure GGG wins a round.

    I'm one of Calzaghe's biggest critics, but i like his chances against Golovkin.

    Speed, volume punching, engine, and a crafty inside game.

    Shame he wasted most of his career allowing himself to be matched against cans.

    Maybe, but would Calzaghe ever agree to a fight? I think not.

    calzaghe loved to pee hard onto his welsh fans faces by facing cans and tricking his fans into paying for world title fights.


    and to this day some of them still haven't realised, and love him for it. Joe is a disgrace to Wales.
