    how does calzaghe wait till ward is 40something. his winning tactic against the best don't work here.

    Without that hes going to fake injury again to avoid a fight where he knows he loses.

    I think Calzaghe would beat Ward easily









    Once Ward is about 40+, but even then that's not guaranteed, Calzaghe might just get an SD

    nope poll is still open , no final result yet, only a minor advantage to joe who has completed his career over ward who isjust in the middle of his.

    lets see what the result is when both are judged eye to eye.

    Calzaghe would have to wait til Ward was 40 and past it to step in the ring with Ward.

    If you make an educated breakdown of styles, Joe Calzaghe (46-0) would be the favourite.

    Andre Ward controls his fights by controling the distance. Calzaghe has the footwork and quickness to dismantle this advantage, and the adeptability to not be confused when Ward takes the fight to the inside.

    Ward lacks the power to back Calzaghe up, which is the key to beat him, so Calzaghes workrate, angles and stamina would make him win rounds. No doubt Ward would have his moments as well, since he's proven himself to be an A-level boxer.

    I think Calzaghe would walk away with a narrow UD. I doubt the fight would ever happen, though. Ward has showed an unwillingness to make big fights happen, as we've seen with Andre Dirrell, Lucian Bute, Adonis Stevenson and Sergey Kovalev :-(

    When would Joe fight him ? Because if he fought a prime one he would struggle with him like he did with Hopkins the diffrence is Ward won't throw a tantrum in the ring like Hopkins did Its be a pick EM fight honestly

    90% of ESB posters are US American

    When you still have Zaggers dominating the poll, that tells you all you need to know
