        Calzaghe would beat anyone from any era of boxing.

        He's a total dish too.

        Joe Calzaghe GOAT!

              Everybody has a hard time with Bika! He is the SMW Joshua Clottey!

                i think glenn johnson has a good chance at beating calzaghe, because i think that he would do what hopkins did, just he would be applying the pressure but would match or keep up with calzaghes punch output.

                i know one thing, this is a guy that no one wants to fight, and calzaghe has done his fair share of avoiding glenn johnson. not saying that calzaghe was ducking johnson, i know that their fight fell out a few times and there was no hurry on calzaghes part to get the fight done, and we all know johnson wanted and wants that fight because he's the hungriest guy in boxing, and has been for for the last 10+ years.

                this match up would put calzaghes training and conditioning to the test, same with johnson, both guys would push all fight long. i can't sign off that calzaghe would flat out win in a wide ud. he could, i'm just not sold it would be easy or a predictable thing to pull off.

                  Fcuk that. Glen Johnson would rock that fool. I don't like Calzaghe at all...never have never will. 10 years from now, he won't even be mentioned.

                  I like Glen Johnson. Not cus he's old, but because when he's in there he's really tryin to give it to these cats. I haven't really followed his career in detail, but i'll prally do some research on the guy.

                      Neither does Sakio Bika really. You lot need to focus on the respective styles and not previous opponents. All this "if he could do this, then think what he could do" **** is some casual style ****.
