Give Calzaghe a break! The guy's 36! He's proven himself and can fight whomever...

Wron, wrong, wrong.

Frank Warren was giving Joe the chance to gamble and progess from merely an ATG to a super-legend like the Durans, Alis, Sugar Rays.

Yes Joe Calzaghe is probably the best boxer of all times, but history won't remember that.

 

This would be a non issue except for what he wrote in his autobiography about Jones and followed up in that web interview that was posted.

 

He'll just beat him on points then. :yep

 

:yep

You havn't been posting enough recently.

 

Good post. May the best man win.

 

Your on crack man he is the worst undefeated fighter I've ever seen fight, he has no technique and slaps like a ***** to win decisions.

 

atsch

 

And he was 43.

One of the judges stated he lost the fight.

Calzaghe was suposed to be in his near prime, coming off the back of his career defining fight.

 

What exactly is the highest level? He fought Kessler who is clearly world class, and it gets discredited by some bull**** like 'Kessler never fought anyone'. As well as being wrong, I have to ask who are all these guys that are already at the 'highest level', more so than Kessler?

Then he fights Hopkins, supposedly proven, and thats discredited because he's old
WHO are these world class opponents? :?

 

Kessler Hopkins are two very good wins
But I would like a Dawson vs Calzaghe beside a Calzaghe vs Pavlik
If Calzaghe beat a Dawson or a Pavlik ..he is gonna get ALL my respect..
Dawson is a tough challenge at his age

 

Joes career is increasingly resting on what Kessler does. He only has himself to blame.

 

Why are these at the 'highest level' more than Hopkins or Kessler though? That is my question, because this guy is talking like Calzaghe never beat a world class opponent

They are top fighters, but I don't see they prove anything for Joe. They just make his resume stronger.

 

I think I speak for alot of people when I say that Id love to see him fight Pavlik - would be an exciting fight but I can understand him taking the jones route. ****, if I was in his shoes id do the same!

 

:good I still think he can beat pavlik but I cant grudge him a big payday against jones.
