Joe Calzaghe Would Consider a 10 Million Dollar Return

[Deja_Vous]

Joe doesn't need to fight anybody out there. Dawson is overrated. Johnson is old. He already beat Hopkins. Pavlik got exposed. Williams is overrated. Froch is an easy UD.

Calzaghe has no legitimate opponents. Plus I wouldn't give anybody huge respect for beating Calzaghe now. He has looked terrible in his last two fights, and is quite clearly, well past his prime.

IF Dawson is overrated..Calzhage doesn't even exist.

So if he didn't KO anyone, how do you know his power just disappeared? You do realize most world class fighters KO the first 20 or so opponents they meet usually, right? Calzaghe has always had decent to solid pop but nothing greater than that.

His power didn't just disappear, frequent hand injuries ensured he lost the pop that he had.

[Deja_Vous]

Yeah but I bet you give that tomato can fighting bum all the credit in the world for beating those last two fossils he fought. Joke Claslappy is a boxing disease.

When did he ever show you this miraculous pop?

He knocked Mitchell out in 2004, and then knocked him about, TKO'd him. Takes some power at least.

Will McIntyre in 2001 whom whilst not elite it's still a same weight decent enough guy, and power is not skill, it's showing the power to KO someone. It was the first time McIntyre had even been down.

Veit in 01, and R1. Woodhall in 2000.

Like I say, decent enough opponents whom don't get KO'd left right and centre, bottom line is you have to demonstrate some power to knock them around and KO them, esp when few others did.

The guy was criticising Calzaghe for being way past prime and his hands being pretty damaged post 2003 and losing a lot of speed and power. That's not a radical thing to say and you'd think it would be up your alley dude...

[Dubious-Dutch]

When he did a commercial for Pepsi.

[Maestro USA]

Hopkins rematch!

[Squabbles94806]

Calzaghe? He ain't worth 10 million. Don't nobody wanna watch him fight. he seems hella stuck up or snotty ya know? Yeah, you can miss me with all that Calzaghe hoopla.

Well Kris you basically said what I said. Calzaghe has always had decent power, nothing so spectacular that it was "lost" due to hand injuries. He was never a one-punch guy.

Who wouldnt come back for $10 Million?

Lennox Lewis.
