Calzaghe is gonna fight a guy he already KOed in the 1st round?

[hitterwitter]

I don't know how true this is but i heard Reid might be fighting Kessler.

Lacy isn't close to Calzaghe's league. I don't think for a second Calzaghe will go to Germany on May 7. He has nothing to gain and everything to lose. Sven Ottke vs. Robin Reid is a prime example. Calzaghe could KO Veit again in the 1st and would probably lose the title on a DQ. Calzaghe needs to step up to light heavy badly. The money matches are there and Tarver, Johnson and Woods (possibly Jones Jnr too) need fights with him (since they all fought each other already).

I actually think Calzaghe has a chance of beating Lacy, Lacy is highly exploitable especially with that wide looping right hook.


It's well known that I have always thought low of Lacy.
And you know what I think of Calzaghe.

This fight is a joke and so for that matter is Calzaghe.

Calzaghe's gone on record and said he doesnt want to fight Veit, he's the WBO mandatory and is being forced into it. Calzaghe complained he couldnt motivate himself for a fighter he give a breating too already.

It sucks ass but i cant see this fight happening.

And people bash Hopkins for fighting Robert Allen. Same situation here..

Calzone

Joey Calzone is a fraud, the WBO belt is worthless, and we should stop mentioning his name in the same breath as quality prizefighters like Lacy, Tarver, Johnson, etc. Even Clinton Woods makes Calzone look like a bum.

He is still fighting Magee, the fight with Veit is taking place on may 7th.

I think Joe will fight Lacy at the end of this year, both Lacy and Calzaghe have to defend there belts , Lacy has already said he is defending his title, so i can see Calzaghe defending his belt and then setting up a unification fight between the two later in the year.

As for you people thinking Lacy would ko Calzaghe, you must be joking. Calzaghe will take Lacy apart i can see him winning inside 5, He's been in with a lot better opponents than Lacy, both sheik and williams hurt Lacy and the sheik fight was very close, Calzaghe gave sheik a beeting for 4 rounds then it got stopped in the 5th.

Thanks for the clarification. And yeah I don't see Lacy beating Calzaghe either. He just gets hit way too much. Speaking of undeserving title shots. I can't see what Williams did to earn that shot. Lacy needs to fight much tougher competition before he should challenge Calzaghe.

Actually, I am -

Calzone is an entertaining mid-range contender, but nothing more, his best win was against Byron Mitchell, a lousy former paper-chump, who nearly knocked calzone out in round 1.

Oh yeah, David Haye is garbage also, but I'm sure you know that already
