      Joe would make Tyson miss all night, it's all about hitting and not getting hit. Tyson would fold after the first four rounds and Calzaghe would smash him around the ring like he did against Lacy.

      Calzaghe KO 6 Tyson.

          joe is underrated by far more than those that rate him highly! it is ashame because he is a very original type fighter that wont be around much longer, and we may never see a fighter like for again!

            Tyson and Calzaghe actually fought in the amateurs and this is how the fight turned out. Never before seen footage.

                Calzaghe is many things, black being one of them.

                  It's okay for U.S. fighters to spend their whole lives over here fighting, where we have great decisions like Casamayor/Santa Cruz and DLH/Sturm, just not for any other country in the world. That's why you had Jeff Lacy as a 2 to 1 favorite over Calzaghe.

                    Not sure, it doesn't seem like he's underrated on these forums. Every Calzaghe/ Hopkins poll, everyone has Calzaghe winning about 70/30. Plus I disagree that he has fought the best in the division. He hasn't fought Bute, Winky, Hopkins, Tarver, RJJ, Johnson. Not saying that those people would beat him, but if he fought them and whippped um up then the american public would prob accept him more you know.
                    Bute is overrated and hasnt earned a shot at the undisputed SMW champion. Do you honestly believe Bute would beat Kessler? I rest my case.

                    Winky is not a SMW and would be so useless Joe would get little or no recognition for beating him, just look at Hopkins, if anything beating Winky made him LESS of a legend because he has all his biggest wins against little guys.

                    Hopkins wouldnt step into a ring with Joe back in 2002, and is only doing so now because its the only fight he can realistically take.

                    RJJ was slightly out of Joes time unfortunately. We would have seen a prime Roy destroy a green Joe, or a prime Joe embarrass an old Roy. Neither man deserves that.

                    Joe has been making fights with Johnsen for a few years now. Johnsen was always to be Joes first fight at LHW, but that didnt come off because of injuries to Joes hands.

                    With what he has achieved, these names should mean nothing. Sadly, to cynical Americans, if Joe doesnt beat these people, hes just another overrated bum from europe.

                      Omar Sheika's previous fight before he was stopped by Calzaghe, was a win over Glen Johnson.
