    Calzaghe didn't fight Lacy or Kessler. He boxed beautifully those nights. With Lacy he never had any thoughts of fighting or going toe to toe. He boxed him from the outside all night.

    He tried to brawl against Kessler and came unstuck early on but then changed his tactics in a way that Eubank was alluding to.

    He's got a point with Hatton but in the tail end of Calzaghe's career, I don't believe he came to fight - he settled into some nice boxing.

    Anyone else think it was a sarcastic dig at JC?

    I'd say one of Calzaghe's biggest attributes was his ability to adapt, I wouldn't say he fought the same way all the time.

    He beat him inside, outside, upside, downside, eastside... he was always there in front of Lacy, jabbed less than usual, threw 15-punch combos...
