Joe Calzaghe and Jermain Taylor. Who wins?

[Ryn0]

i think JT jab will become neutralised by calzaghe's inside fighting. He isn't the classic inside fighter but comes in low and close and throws his cbons there. He gets tagged sometimes when coming in as was shown by Kessler straigt right but zag has a solid jaw and i think Kessler punches much harder than Taylor using straights.


Calzaghe's activity will make Taylor fight and he will gas Taylor out.

i dunno man.. something about my gut guys.. i doubt this fight will ever happen.. but, if taylor beat pavlik, its on..

that would be sick, taylor beats pavlik.. then beats JC(i kno i kno u guys dont think so) then jt will fight kelly pavlik and lose..

im allow to dreamm shhh!!

[right cross]

imo, Calzaghe would take Taylor by a wide UD

[pins0099]

to be honest, if JC beat him.. id say ok.. hes the man.. until then, i wont say that

What!! This is an outrage!

So, your lasting opinion on an undefeated world champion, rests on whether he could beat Jermain-****ing-Taylor. You're not kidding over there are you, JC really has struggled to capture the mind of boxing America.

JT was over hyped to start with, let off by a blase B-hop who'd already though he'd got it in the bag, three fights later including one extremely dodgy decision he meets KP and falls on his arse. The later not so much of an embarrasment as KP is a fantastic fighter.

Calzaghe would slap him silly, instant replay of Lacy fight IMO.

Taylor is no where close to Calzaghe. Hes not even in the same league. Im positive Taylor wouldn't touch Kessler. So to me Joe wins by a KO, mid rounds.

Joe would actually stop Taylor, people discount that he is also bigger and stronger than Taylor. Taylor also is only a solid puncher, I actually think that come fight night at 168 JC would be the heavier hitter too or slapper or whatever. Taylor is a three notches down from Calzaghe. Calzaghe on his crappiest night still beats Taylor.

Hopkins is more competitive for the simple reason he is wiley as **** and throws dangerous lead right hands, which could catch Joe.

With one stoppage in his last 8 fights (against his business partner, former 130 lb champ Oscar), I don't think Bernard is going to stop Joe, but he will give him some trouble with his defense and awkward style.

Joe to win with one hand tied behind his back.

This fight has slugfest written all over it.. Much better fight that Hopkins and JC.
Both JT and JC are busy fighters.. JT always fights back after he gets hit.
I think JT takes it.. he is the fresher of the 2 and has better handspeed (IMO)
Who do u got?

No this wouldn't be a slug fest, Calzaghe in my opinion would pick him to bits with combo's and constant movement.

As for the hand speed, no Calzaghe definately has the quicker hands, add that to his extra size, strength and experience, there can be only one winner.

look guys, hear me out..
JC has trouble with tough journeymen..
LOOK at BIKA.. Joe didnt look so good that fight.. Bika swept 4 rounds in a row on all the judges scorecards..
and you guys are sayin Joes got an easy fight? Definately not..
