    If Roy has;

    1- The legs to move well for 12 and;
    2- The stamina to keep his workrate up for 12 rounds,

    I think he has a very good chance at winning

      Completely disagree. In order to beat Calzaghe, you have to be able to fight on the inside.

      It's like those same people who thought the only way Floyd could beat Hatton was to box from the outside. A fighter like Hatton won't stop coming. You've gotta be able to beat them at their own game - I kept telling my buddies Mayweather was gonna stay in the pocket, kick his ass and KHTFO.

      In order to beat Calzaghe, you must be able to do the same. Bernard Hopkins said it best, "If the other guy has a gun your best chance isn't to run away from it but to run towards it. You have a better shot of taking it away from him than avoiding a bullet."

                  Calzaghe is no where near unbeatable. Hopkins beat him.

                    simplistic to say but very hard to get to grips with eh

                    as Calz found out

                    there is no way Hopkins in his prime would have lost to Calzaghe he punches straighter he turns his hooks over shorter and quicker

                    the reason he lost was because of how many birthdays hes had not because of Joe Calzaghe

                    Hopkins is a more intelligent than Calzaghe he would of beaten Calzaghe with ease in 2001
