    My main question here is would JC be able to pull out a performance like Leonard to win a decision.? Joe is slightler taller and longer, and similar hand/footspeed as SRL.

    Calzaghe fought at 168 and 175. He would also be too fast for Hagler, but esp. at that weight...........

    Is this another secret code thread about some other new boxing website?

    Because nobody could really be serious in asking this question.

    Marvin would swat aside Joe's punches as he cut off the ring and beat Joe down. Relentlessly. Without slowing or tiring. Like the coming of winter. Joe leaves in an ambulance.

    I think you folks are writing off Joe too easily. Joe does have some major advantages on this fight

    hagler is a middleweight


    I'm sure you would agree he was a "super" middleweight LMAO


    at first i tought this was just another thoughtless troll thread, but its actually a great match up


    i reckon Calzaghe could be busy enough to nick the rounds. And his chin could withstand what came his way


    Quality match up OP

    Correct. I see Joe able to dodge mich of what Marvin threw as SRL was able to and return with 5-6 punch combos. Wouldnt be a Lacy-job but would likely win a 7-5 type UD IMO

    People thinking "Easy Hagler KO, Joes a bum" arent giving this match up any thought what so ever

    Hagler is the better boxer, and tougher than a brick shithouse

    But Calzaghe is bigger, has insane stamina. a very good beard, and "slaps" hard enough that Marvin wouldnt just walk through him

    This one is very much a 50/50

    Of course a few UK guys who don't know any betterv pick Joe to beat anyone all though there is zero evidence to support their claims.

    "let's pick Joe because he done come from ENGURLAND like us..."

    Hagler KO5 Slappy Coward Joe.
