calazaghe was more of a power puncher before he destroyed his hands. if you watch his early career he was hurting people with single shots (albeit with lesser opponents) as he got older he has to change his style to volume puncher. hes couldn't even hit the heavy bag or spar for some fights his hands were so fuct
if 40somethings easily drop him in seconds, and joe needed a cheat stoappage on slippage to stop getting koed by Byron Mitchell in round 1, then there would be plenty that stop joe.
shame that most of those people are calzaghe himself, that's why he became a cokehead in shame for claiming beating consecutive 40somethings were his career highlight.
Hopkins had the chance to fight him when he was middleweight champion but backed out last minute demanding more money. Plus Hopkins was the man at 175 when Joe faced him. Calzaghe would have beaten him at 168 if they had of fought.
deal I remember the 24/7 vs Jones, how in the build up he was talking about what an underdog he was going to NYC to fight roy. A few years earlier he was talking about how shot jones was and how he'd never fight him. atsch
