    Joe would box rings around Wlad

    Just like Mayweather would beat Pavlik

    I think yours is what they call 'blind faith' - mine is probably a bit more reasonable drawing the line at betting against Wlad. :yep

    There are some top ten heavies I'd favor him to beat soundly though!

    Not at all!:bart You would have to be blind not to see that Joe would never fight anyone whom he couldn't beat.

    See that's it...I don't doubt that Joe might fancy himself a favorite against Wlad...whether or not I agree with his estimation, is where it gets hazy...

    Joe would be a favourite against any fighter on the planet, that much is obvious

    The reasons for this are two-fold
    1) He's amazing
    2) He's amazing

    I have also heard from several sources that he is a fantastic painter, singer and novelist in his spare time

    Does he give to as many charities or hug his brother as much as Wlad? Is he a doctor?

    I will have to confirm these various rumours with my sources to clear up any confusion

    I don't want to paint an innacurate picture of the man outside of being an all-time great boxer

    These rumours are unsourced, ok ESB

    Actually, I am curious to know. Are Lennox and Joe buddies? Have they ever played chess?

    Joe is seriously thinking about taking up a career in chess after boxing

    This will come as no suprise to knowledgable fans, as he has shown a great boxing brain, and it is hoped he could transfer this to the chess arena

    Infact, this is the reason he only wants 2 more fights

    Kasparov, or whoever the feck, watch out

    Lennox Lewis and Joe Calzaghe shouldn't even be mentioned in the same sentence :deal Joe couldn't carry Lennox's jock strap let along all his championship belts! Lennox is an ATG, Joe is an ATFake :bbb

    I didn't mention the sport of boxing, I just wanted to know if they'd ever froliced or picniced together or participated in some kind of British celebrity-athlete snooker or chimneysweeping tournament.

    You mean the rumours you just made up for kicks since you have nothing intelligent to say?
