joe calzaghe vs jeff lacy

In the two fights prior, Hopkins had just beaten Tarver and Winky Wright making them both look like utter horse ****e in the process. Tarver was top 10 P4P material and Winky was 2 or 3.

If that's meant to legitimize Joe's win over Bernard, then it would also legitimize Taylor's as well. Which I know you wouldn't want to do, considering you call him overrated every chance you get.

While this was a good win for Joe I think it is a little overstated given how poor Lacy has been found to be. I think the win over Kessler is more impressive and clearly Joe's marquee win. Few times have I been more impressed by a fighter than watching that one.

You and me both.

Lacy and Kessler were both impressive wins in the fashion he won them. Yes Kessler was a better opponent but he managed to tag Calzaghe with some serious upper cuts. The impressive thing with the Lacy fight is that Joe pretty much avoided everything Lacy threw.

You'd think Jeff would manage to land a few but he hardly did at all. You'd also think Calzaghe would get complacent with the ease of winning post round 9 where he really had him, but he kept putting on an absolutely blinding performance avoiding everything Lacy threw. He danced round him all night. One of the best performances of hitting and not getting hit I've ever seen. So that was the impressive part of that win for me.

Well no because I dont feel Taylor has a win over Hopkins. But I would give him credit for pushing Hopkins harder than Tarver or Wright did and about as well as Joe did.

Of course Taylor is 10-15 years younger than all these guys.

To keep it short... CALZAGHE IS A TOOL!!
