Who's the best counterpuncher Calzaghe has ever fought?

I don't know much about his competition that hasn't been well discussed, but surely out of all those fights there had to be a good one or two in there.

I def. agree with you that Bernard, if nothing else, can counter punch with the best of them. That's why we have seen him in long staredowns in the ring, he wants to let you make your first move, then he'll react.

 

Probably David Starie, or Tocker Podwill. Or even Manfredo.

 

I havent seen all of Calzaghe's fights so I couldnt say for sure who
but i am sure that Hopkins will be by far the best counterpuncher
Joe has fought.

 

Manfredo???:huh

 

What? He's a future HOFer man:yep

 

Probably reid. So far

 

:yep

 

I would like to know more about Tocker Pudwill. Obviously his name is funny but I've often wondered how he got his title shot at Joe. He had won some fights, but the last couple wins (according to boxrec ((which I know CAN be very incorrect)) his wins were against dudes that had lost their last 5-6 staight. Was he a replacement?? How the hell did he get his shot??

 

my pick too:good

 

Robin Reid

 

I thought Manfredo did a magnificent job at counting punches in his fight with Calzaghe, or have I got my definitions all ****ed up again :huh

 

:think

 

No. you're probably right
