Joe Calzaghe was Such an excellent Fighter

Sorry, that wasn't clear - I meant when Calzaghe's opposition since Lacy was becoming a joke. Kessler was sterling and gave Joe a great fight.

 

Bika's never going to get a shot unless he forces it by playing the game. Fighting unknowns in the Australian outback makes it too easy to keep this gorilla away from the big boys.

 

I love Carl for his verbal and physical entertainment but I have never thought he would win one single round against Joe Calzaghe.

Calzaghe was a machine. The guys in Super Six are VERY good, Calzaghe was great. A cut above. The guy had a granite chin, huge heart, endless stamina, a great arsenal and the ability to adapt throughout the 12 rounds.

 

He is fighting one of shot Robin Reid's victims next, in Canada. 4/6 on.

 

:good Completely agree mate with Manfredo although Bika was a good fight on his record he was dangerous. China Joe him and Froch would be a sweet fight I think.:yep

 

Calzaghe dances all over Frochs arse to a clear UD.

 

I think most people know Froch is pretty limited.

12 months ago, people would have laughed at anyone suggesting that Froch would be in a war with Kessler.

I really do hope that we don't see Kessler being resurrected as a god (and Calzaghe too) simply because he beat Froch on points in Denmark.

Credit to them both, I gained a lot of respect for Kessler tonight, he's a real fighter/warrior and has a great heart, but it hasn't change my mind about him being some sort of boxing god.

 

:good Very true. Good point well made.

Froch has come a long way.

 

I've always said JC spits more boxing then Carl, but thats not to trash Froch. I just think Calzaghe was a very special fighter, its just a shame he underachieved and spent so long without big challenges. I think Hatton and to a certain extent Froch as well (when his career is done) achieved more relative to their talent level.

 

kessler still had the same heart when joe calzaghe outclassed him

 

I would rather watch Froch lose in a great fight like last night than a thousand slappy victories by the coke snorting sister ****er :thumbsup

 

And a broken hand apparently
