    WHY do people moan about calzaghes choices?

    WHYY do people always go on about calzaghe picking "old timers" .
    Calzaghe is 36!!!

    Roy is only THREE YEARS older, that is nothing.

    Joe has always been fighting younger opponents, so whats the big deal with fighting roy whos only 3 years older?

    Do you really expect a champ at thje end of his career to be fighting the up and coming stars?

    i still think he would cause trouble for pavlik.

      Hopkins was 43. Calzaghe, Hopkins and Roy should have been fighting each other 8 years ago.

        yeh but its no good talking about what "should" of happened!
        "hopkins would of knocked joe out in his prime. WOW , when hopkins was 7 , and joe was a baby, bhop would of killed him!
        your just looking for an excuse to defend a lost fight!


        and im just waiting till after the Jones fight for people to say:
        "jones was much older, out of his prime , etc etc

        it dont matter, a fight is a fight.
        plus 3 years is NOTHING!
        its not calzaghes problem jones has not kept up his form.

          hopkins and roy didnt need calzaghe, calzaghe was nobody,

          if he wanted a fight with roy why not move up to light heavyweight and get himself in the position for the fight

              Since all fighters age at different rates, age itself really has nothing to do with it.

                very good point,

                i would say calzaghe is still at something like his best but roy is most certainly not

                    if Calzaghe's career is a joke then i am rapidly spiraling towards depression about my career and every other normal person i knows.

                    an undefeated world champion for ten years and a multi millionaire....

                    Yeah thats a joke of a career..

                    How many world titles have you held? and at how many weight divisions?

                    None so you are in no position to call his career a joke
