    Just curious, Joe Calzaghe has one of the softest punches at Super Middle. Do you guys think he'll ever knock anyone with a pulse out?

    He only hurts people by throwing 1000 soft punches.

    Sorry China *** Joe, hate to spoil your party.

    does it really matter?

    i'd take a brutal 12 round schooling ala jeff lacy, over a knockout anyday of the week. go ask mr lacy now if he'd rather have been put out of his misery in the 7th or endured another 5 rounds of pain.

    lame effort.

    It fit Hopkins before when he was younger and more aggressive.

    Now he executes game plans that bore the viewers.

    Let me guess your favourite boxer is Pavlik? and Pacquiou is your #1 P4P.

    I would say 75% of title fights go the distance so your arguement should be directed to just about every world champ!

    Calzage hits hard and that is why guys cover up so much when fighting him, but it is his style to outbox because of his superior speed

    Calzaghe used to be a proper banger, but he risks breaking his hands every time he throws a hard shot.
