    In a match-up of crafty southpaws? Bute or Calzaghe? Prime for prime

    As much as I hate Calzaghe, he would take this. Even if Bute somehow managed to drop him, Joe would still come back up, adjust, and outwork him.

    If Bute drops him, is all ovah. Claz might get the UD.

    Buten got smacked around by Andrade. He hasnt beaten a serious threat. He doesnt punch hard enough to trouble Calzaghe. This fight is an easy pick, especially given who Bute has fought to date.

    If Bute beat Ward, Kessler, Froch, Hopkins and G. Johnson, then we can begin to discuss this thread.

    Last time I checked Calzaghe had some troubles with Kabary Salem and Bika. Its not like Calzaghe was unhittable or something and these 2 guys are not quite elite fighters. Calzaghe was a great boxer but not that great as some people make him out to be.
