    Can the GOAT handle what The Beterbiev brings, or is he merely another KO victim on the Steamrollers resume?

    Too early to tell. Beterbiev hasn't faced anything remotely close to a peak Calzaghe yet. If he beat Kovalev then we can talk.

    Got to go with the speed and work rate of zaghe Beouche. I don't think Beterbiev would be mentally ready to go against a guy that experienced right now imo. Maybe in a few years time I'd change my mind though.

    It's a Lacy scenario, although Artur is better no doubt. That said it's a wide UD for Joe...

    Calzaghe wasn't a light heavy, he got dropped by ancient BHop and Roy Jones. He would get decimated by Beterbiev, there's a difference between using pitty pat punches to keep defensive BHop away and trying to keep a monster like Beterbiev away. Calzaghe is ridiculously overrated, Ward, Kovalev, Gvodzyk etc. would all beat him easily. It sounds crazy when people make threads like this making Calzaghe sound like a formidable opponent at light heavy.

    Beterbiev beats down any version of Joe Calzaghe.

    Beterbiev KO

    He's not the goat but he would outbox Beterbiev.

    For Beterbiev it won't end well, as Calzaghe peppers and tattoes his face the whole 12.

    Beterbiev is a beast. But I'm very sure Calzaghe takes this.. he was a special fighter.. exceptional all rounder.

    A clearly declined Joe, in the last two fights of his career at a brand new weight. Be objective when you post ffs.

    EDIT: Just read the line where you said Ward etc would beat him easily. Clearly a troll post. Ignored.
