    Calzaghe fought many times in England against English fighters, he has a much more credible away record than Bernard. Nowadays it wouldnt matter, but coming up was alot different for Joe, he fought Eubank, Reid etc etc

    it will make zero difference. he fights around the LHW weight on fightnight at SMW. it will most likely aid him as he won't have to drain so hard to make the weight.

    Trust me, you'll see the best calzaghe ever because he won't have to starve himself so much to make the weight. Slightly more power, and no loss in speed. Calzaghe's natural weight is 14 stone. That's 196 pounds.

    The criticism of Joe calzaghe is always born of ignorance. Every single time. My suggestion to you is to learn about Joe, have a good look and study his career, consider the politics involved in boxing, and then try presenting a better argument than "Calzaghe fought bums and ducked all the big names".

    Home being the United states? Cause I think there might, just might be a difference of fighting in a different state as opposed to outside of your home country.

    i suggest you go do a little research on the matter before you get schooled. go check out a certain jay nady's comments on a certain meeting that took place at showtime offices in 2002.

    True I do think Calzaghe will look good. But we'll just see how he perfoms

    Do you know the difference between Wales and England?

    Do you know that there is quite the "rivalry" between the two countries?

    Read up, and stop displaying typical yank ignorance
