Last time I checked Taylor is an middleweight and owns the second most important belt in boxing. He does not need Calzaghe!
Taylor fought Hopkins twice and Wright, so there is no way in hell he's scared from Calzaghe, for Taylor to move up in weight and go fight for a meaningless WBO built in UK he better get at least 10 mil.

Taylor fought an old Hopkins twice and actually lost the second fight if the judges were'nt blind. Fought Winky and walked away with a draw once again with most of the boxing public agreeing that Taylor lost. For a Middleweight Champion that is supposed to be so awesome he sure is protected. Taylor's handlers know better than us just how good he is and that's a big reason he'll not fight Calzaghe or anyone else decent anytime soon. I don't blame them because it's all about the money and as long as suckers will pay big money to see Taylor ( and alot of other so called great fighters) fight out of their prime named fighters or fight smaller guys with little risk than it will continue to happen. A perfect example of this is Valuev who was trying to break Marcianno's record by fighters fellow tomato cans. That's why boxing is not as popular today as it was even in the 70's or 80's. Do you think Taylor would have fought Marvin Hagler, Tommy Hearns or even John the Beast Mugabi and win? I don't think so.Comment

joe said, i want to fight in the states, there you go, what was the main purpose for the manfredo fight.. to get joe into the american market..
its so ****ing hypocritical to claim that nobody wants to fight joe, when its obvious that that the problem aint taylor, kessler, rjj, hopkins and so on..
one the one hand youve got the bigname boxers, who have all boxed against other bigname boxers, so obviously they are willing to do the talk and walk the walk, end youve got the guy with all the excuses..Comment

no it doesnt bother me one bit, but based on what, that the mighty manfredo bully is going to slap him to..
here you have a young fighter, who has stepped in the ring, with the toughest competition in his weight hopkins and wright, and this is the actions of a scared man..Comment

Sadly, Calzaghe is making a career out of fighting the worst boxers in the world. At least the worst available contenders...Comment
