    If you go on to amazon website and search for calzaghe/lacy the fight is on there. I dowloaded it for $1.99 there last year. Great quality video, you have to download the amazon unbox veiwer too, its well worth it though :bbb

    This was one of the first fights i saw and it got me hooked on boxing and i remember watching Kessler fight the same night and think he would be in trouble against Calzaghe.. Then after watching the Andrade and Manfredo fights i though Kessler would beat Calzaghe - then i was wrong.

    No problem.

    Gotta love Joe's 5 low blows in round 3. Hehe.

    Calzaghe ruined him forever. It was actually too bad because Lacy was kinda entertaining and he could've given us some more exciting fights had he not run into Calzaghe, but that's the way it is in Boxing.

    Not according to his own autobiography.

    Split?

    It was full of yanks screaming that Lacy would tear his head off.

    Citing the twin destructions of Pemberton and Reid...glossing over the struggle against Sheika.

    The only one I really remember screaming about victory for Joe Calzaghe was the poster named Max Molyneux.

    He has since been overshadowed by other Calzaghe fans like Amterdam and CHJ but I always remember him as the orginal JC nut hugger.

    I have it on DVD with the UK commentary.

    Does anyone have it with the American commentary?

    Possibly mentally. The Typsko fight (II) ruined him physically imo.

    I thought immediatley after that that Joe had been wary of Lacy prior to the fight.

    And after eating a decent right hand realised he had nothing to worry about...that Lacys power was somewhat overrated.

    Thats what that gesture said to me.

    It may have also been a way of saying I won the round and putting doubts into young Lacy's mind.
