    Calzaghe is more than content with his legacy. Lacy was a God-send.

    He has to pay 50% of his earnings to his ex-wife, so it's the big American paydays he needs.

        Jermain Taylor is GREAT for boxing.

        I wasn't a bit optimistic after OUMA and SPINKS, but a fight with Calzaghe is what boxing fans need.

        Hopefully this time it'll be the week after MAYWEATHER-DLH II

            Boxing: Joe Calzaghe
            http://sport.guardian.co.uk/boxing/story/0,10146,1469346,00.html
            Welsh boxer Jow Calzaghe is living his dream but not as he saw it: he has not been beaten in 15 years but still craves that defining fight.

                I think you guys are making too much out of the Lacy fight, Taylor is not Lacy and lets not forget that.
                The Taylor who couldn't knock out a junior middleweight in Kassim Ouma or another Taylor?

                    Wow, would be surprised if Taylor took on Calzaghe. Cant really see how Taylor can win, but i guess money talks in this case.

                        BBC Story Today

                        The BBC website is reporting today that Calzaghe is travelling to Memphis to watch Jermain Taylor fight on May 19, and it confirms that there are negotiations for a Taylor vs Calzaghe fight in September.

                            Wanna see Calzaghe do this fight in the US.

                            His hands are in a bad way,

                            Im not sure yet, but i might actually go with Taylor in this fight.

                                Calzaghe's ex-wife doesn't get any share of his future earnings. He was going to retire if she did.

                                    Calzaghe has often said he wants to fight in the US, but so far it hasn't happened. I think it's Warren who wants to keep Joe's fights in Britain.
