    cool, another calzaghe thread.

    Fingers crossed we see haye v Klit soon, or maybe something about mayweather being scared of pac man.

    I somewhat blame calzaghe himself for part of it, he should have taken on one or two more fights and then called it a day, he was still in good nick. He should have really taken on dawson and then rematched poppy, that would have put a stop to most stuff about him either way

    True all he's got now are his wins over Hopkins and Kessler and his legion of nuthuggers.

    only had 2 losses to one fighter, the 2nd being a SD, the first a very contraversial loss

    On Lacys win resume is Sheika, Williams, Pemberton, Vanderpool, Tsypko, Manfredo and Reid. Now how many active American SMWs have a better resume.

    Remember also that Pudwill and McIntyre were late subs because Tate & Echoles pulled out.
    Remember Jones turned down 5 mil, Hopkins 3 mil and Taylor wanted 10 mil to face Calzaghe and Pavlik turned down the job when offered, before he was MW champ

    He was an incredible athlete, and I deff respected him as a fighter. But I really lost respect for him when he started getting big and talking trash. He wasn't funny or witty at all and just came off as a cocky *******.
