    Dariusz Michalczewski Vs Joe Calzaghe at LHW



    Who wins and how. A question to ask yourself. Who has the better resume? Has DM fought anyone that JC coudn't beat and vice versa?

    Would this be an exciting tear up or a dull snooze fest?

    I don't think people are interested. Let it lie.

    This one has been done a couple of times lately..so that more than likely is the reason why there is little interest.

    Depends which version of Joe really...Joe was a natural lightheavy that decided to carve out a career at supermiddle. He would have been very good still at 175 if had chosen to campaign there his whole career.

    If you were to base it on Joe's late career foray at 175 vs DM's prime career at 175..I reckon Dariusz wins it and a stoppage isnt out of the question if it was needed. He was a beast and is often more overlooked than a lot of people on here seem to think Joe is.

    A prime Joe of a few years ago moving up could eek out a decision..Tough call but DM is a quality fighter and would be unaffected by Joe's slaps and even hardly affected by Joe's proper left hand down the pipe.

    Calzaghe would win a close decision.

    It depends if they are fighting in Germany or not. In Germany, Michalczewski wins. Outside of there, Calzaghe wins.

    In neutral territory, I'd slightly favour Joe by decision.

    Wouldn't be shocked if Darius won.
