    No more wasting time with Manfredo's or Bika's.

    With Zags tendecy of hurting his hands and his time left on the retirement clock there is no reason for him to fight anyone but a world-class opponent.
    THAT, I do agree with.

    I dont think that Calzaghe will be ready by July either, which I think is a good thing. If waiting and extra couple of months will get him Taylor or Kessler before taking on Hopkins early next year, then thats what I'd prefer to see rather than have him fight some mandatory contender in July, break his hand again and then miss out on his big 18 months.

      I wouldnt call that a war it was
      a one sided beating....

      Listen if the mans hands are hurting now how much hurt is he gonna
      have to put on Hopkins or taylor to hurt them..
      They aint gonna go down from the shots He was hitting Manfredo with..
      His hands are gonna get fcuked up..
      So what im saying is he might aswell jack the game in now if his hands are Broke now after what he did with Manfredo which most hit the gloves i mean ive had harder tugs and done less damage

          You know he has broken hand when he starts slapping for the rest of the fight.

          He's tough though, real champions can fight through injuries.

            calzaghe is lying he was in a long interview with larry merchant right after the fight and said nothing about pain or injury.. never said he was glad the ref stopped it early becuase he hurt his hand or anything...

              Haven't you ever been hurt while you had adrenaline flowing through your body?

              You don't feel hurt at all.

              Joe didn't say anything cause his adrenaline was still pumping.

                Sheezus, Calzaghe needs to drink some damn milk or something.
                I thought he would be ok since he decides to throw a billion slaps of death at once instead of loading up on anything, but his hand somehow got hurt when he didnt even land that clean of shots?

                get some damn extra soft pillow gloves...it really is unfortunate such a good fighter has such brittle fists.

                  Maybe the guys in his corner, namely his dad, did a ****ty job of wrapping and taping his hands when he was young? Once you get a break, it happens easier every time.

                    That explains why calzaghe was slapping his punches so much.

                      Well mayweather has seemed to have gotten past the bad hand
                      issues...
                      But fracture of his hand i cant count one shot really that was proper solid..

                      Thats cuz the man slaps down at the back of the head its the way
                      he throws his shots is the reason why he has bad hands...
