Could Calzaghe go for 50-0 by fighting HOPKINS, DAWSON, WRIGHT and KESSLER??

I find it hard to believe a guy who is not showing signs of nearing "shot" and is on 46-0 hasn't even considered going for 50-0. That's legendary status right there.

But if he does only have 1 left, who would you want it to be against?

 

If he got to 50-0 by beating these guys, then yes I would definitely acclaim him as an ATG.

I don't hate Calzaghe at all contrary to public perception, but I refuse to call someone an ATG with a resume as weak as his. If he improves it, I will call it like it is as always and acclaim that.

 

winky called him out on saturday

pacfan, why couldn't he beat hopkins?

 

He most definitely could beat Hopkins, but personally I don't think he would. He could because it would be another close fight and who knows how the scores would go. Judges seem to really appreciate the volume/activity of Calzaghe, I've often noticed that. I would strongly favour Hopkins in a rematch though. For a start, I think he could drop Joe again, possibly more than once, and that would give him a points advantage. There's no way in this world Calzaghe is dropping B-Hop, not with a baseball bat. I just think that Hopkins is what I call a Master Boxer. I thought he won the 1st fight by a point, but as he didn't get the decision, he will alter his gameplan to ensure victory this time. In addition to the way he rendered Calzaghe's attacks utterly ineffective last time out, he will be more aggressive and more active. His greater accuracy and power will catch the judges eye. As long as his stamina at 43 doesn't let him down, I'd strongly favour Hop to win a close but clear and thoroughly deserved UD.

Now let the abuse begin.....

Just my opinion lads!

 

Even if he only beats Dawson and Hopkins and retires on 48-0, I'd say he's a great.

 

This thread is a waste of bandwidth. Calzaghe is retiring.
