Should have Calzaghe had 4 soft fights to make it 50-0?

    Joe after the Jone's fight had nothing left to prove, but stats would show he was just short of Marciano's record.

    He could have had a 4 fight farewell tour fighting a 10 rounder every few months with a big goodbye in Cardiff at the end of the year.

    Fighters like Tony Oakey, Dean Francis or Brian Magee would happily share the billing as an opponent, and equally pose no threat. Such victories would prove nothing in themselves, but the fights would be easily to set up and would be a low risk route to history

    He's had 40+ soft fights already, why would he need 4 more?

    Dumb idea. People aready critisize Joe's resume', and rightly so. If he fought 4 set ups just to break rocky's record, haters like me would be right there screaming "See I told ya so!"

    He'd be slated even more for doing this because you know he'd be the first to point out he has a superior record to Marciano.A padded 46-0 will do for me I think

    If Calzaghe had 4 fight left in him:-

    1.Glen Johnson (unfinshed business and very probable win)

    2 Chad Dawson (Only good LHW left to fight, hard but winnable fight)

    3 Ademek (For a cruiserweight title and a probable win)

    4 Valuev (just for a laugh)

    Typical Calzaghe post from a typical Calzaghe fan.

    Anyone on either side of the fence: read this. This is what Joe and his fans are all about.
