    Points, I don't have 50k in real life.. but it's still a macho thing, e-points or cash.. it's just whichever way you look at it.

      Of course points economy will be alot higher by the time they fight, if they fight at all.. so I'd have no problem raising the stakes.
      So if you are so confident in a Calzaghe win, why do you want Joe to fight Taylor?


      Taylor is really not that great of a fighter (and not talking about "heart"), at least not at this point.

      Lacy was hyped, and Taylor is hyped at this point, so in my opinion, Joe should be fighting other fighters.

      Like I said before, I am not to schooled on Kessler, but it is unfair for him not to get a fight with Joe.

        Considering he's a top 10 pound for pound fighter and regardless of his performance tonight he has alot of fans.

        I'm confident in Calzaghe because I'm a fan of his. Just because I think Calzaghe can beat Taylor means they shouldn't fight? Floyd will beat Oscar, so maybe they shouldn't fight either?

        I'm not trying to sound obnoxious, but if boxing was to follow that logic, fighters wouldn't fight unless it was a pick'em.

          I don't have 50,000 points, but whatever points I have "If they ever fight" I will put up on Taylor to beat ****.

          I don't think this fight will ever happen, **** rather fight guys from the TV Contender in March of 2007.

            Calzaghe's persuing the fight more so than Taylor is, if the fight doesn't happen it won't be because of Joe, I know he's an easy target for the blame being British 'n'all but the truth is he wants the fight.

              Joe also said he wanted Roy when Roy was in his prime, but that never happened.

              Do I think Joe is serious about this fight, yes, Taylor isn't Roy Jones Jr.

                Taylor's got a tough chin, I don't see him getting KO'd. I see Calzaghe beating him up badly and winning a UD though.

                  Now I know it's hard to look good against Hopkins and Wright, but Taylor didn't look that great fighting an Old Man, and he barely pulled out a victory, if he did actually win, against Wright.

                  If Hopkins was much younger, Taylor wouldn't have won.


                  And Oscar does have a solid chance.


                  But, I understand your point, but my other point was that Calzaghe should be giving Kessler a shot first.

                    Joe was also calling out James Toney 5 months ago.

                      When you are exhausted, it becomes easier to get knocked out.
