Joe Calzaghe's retirement

Only before he fought them Mick.

Exactly mate, now they are overrated

Its a joke. Last month it was Pavlik now because Pavlik has been kind of found out its Dawson.

Lacy was never ****. Grow up. Kessler has fought no one. Good win for Joe. But keep being a fanboy.

Anyone else looking forward to this day? Not so much because I don't like Joe, just so sick of the continuous stream of teenage morons that come on here with the same bull**** over and over.

teenage morons? It seems like there are much more ignorant Calzaghe haters on NSB than there are Calzaghe nuthuggers. Not to mention the fact that there are sensible Calzaghe fans out there, and there are many more that won't even bother to give him any credit at all.

People see what they want to see.

Zillionth Calzaghe thread of the week. Haters will hate, huggers will hug and the rest of us just get on with it.

To be honest I don't want him to retire after the Jones fight.

After all his talk about coming to U.S. to prove how great he is, a retirement fight against a past prime Roy Jones is a big letdown.

Going out with a win over another young top fighter like Dawson would be much better.

beating roy and then dawson (icing the cake with a more convincing win over bhop in wales) would solidify joe calzaghe as an atg imo....

he will and SHOULD get no credit for Roy. Roy is done. HAS been done. I've been saying this all along. JESUS why can no one see this? ROY THREW the third fight with Tarver and couldn't KO the FAT BLOATED CORPSE OF TITO.

Joe is coming off the best wins of his career. There you go.

I guarantee Joe won't retire. Dawson will run his mouth off and claim how Calzaghe is avoiding him, then Joe will make the fight and beat him. Then people will claim Dawson was shot and that Joe needs to fight some other guy to secure his greatness.

Thats how it always goes.

Dawson doesn't run his mouth off too much, and he's too low reward for Calzaghe to fight on beyond what he intended. There's not really been calls to fight Chad only Kelly so they can't conveniently change, there's always another guy out there.

I personally think if Joe beats Roy in good enough fashion he will retire most likely.

I don't think anyone was calling for Calzaghe to Dawson since he looked bad against Johnson but he is now coming off an impressive performance against Tarver.

Dawson and Calzaghe are the two top fighters at LHW, the fight should happen but I agree that it probably won't.

I wouldn't criticize Calzaghe much for not fighting Dawson since he is getting up there in age but beating a past prime Jones for his last fight is a disappointing way to go out.
