    boring fight.... which behop would win..... plus the fact it won't sell that much because HBO know behop is boring and does'nt bring any fans.



    Anyway JC doesn't do rematches and he would only have everything to lose.

    While I'm neither a fan nor a hater, I will admit that I wasn't very big on his boxing style. However, I found myself entertained by this particular fight. For people who have watched more of his fights, would you consider this his best performance?
     
  4. IF it happened in Wales, the fight would be electric
     
  5. This is his best performance. Though the Kessler and Lacy fight were impressive. He showed his greatness over Jones.

    In a sense, but i was the most impressed w/ the kessler performance.
    he beat handily a 40 fight big guy in his prime. to me that's his best victory. his smackdown of jones was still up there though.

    Calzaghe-Kessler is by far the Calzaghe fight with the highest level of skill on display. IF you havent seen that you should.

    It makes this fight look like slow-motion.

    He's a cocky SOB, which I like in fighters. I have no problem with the alleged showboating he displayed tonight. Its entertainment folks

    But as with other elite boxer, he has too many irrational nuthuggers who fell to see that Roy is a shot fighter who is a shell of himself. I said this a couple of weeks ago, this fight does nothing for Joe's legacy. Hopkins was a legitimate victory. This is not

    I can't take anything away from Calzaghe. He is a great fighter.
