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

That is pretty cool. I majored in Finance at UT-panam.

Good stuff my brother, cong**** on the finance degree, not an easy area of expertise to study.... maybe you could give HayeFan some advice on how to invest his nest-egg by betting against Joey Calzone whenever he decides to fight somebody with a pulse.

3. Irish

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.

Nearley knocked him out, i dont know what fight you were watching Calzaghe got knocked down but got straight back up and knocked him out the first person to do so, i don't think Mitchell had ever been knocked down before, Calzaghe was never hurt in the fight.

All I got to say to HitterWitter is 2 words: Zab Judah.

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.

Your so ****ing funny, LMFAO!!

Not funny ha ha, funny *****

Calzaghe's a fraud and shouldnt be mentioned in the same breath as Lacy(never beaten a decent fighter), Tarver(one hit wonder), Johnson(i like the guy so no insults)!!?? WTF??

You just dont know boxing!!

winning the WBO against Chris Eubank makes it worth a hell of a lot more than winning the IBF against Syd Vanderpool!! when you start to learn about boxing you will find that the fighters are bigger than the belts.

Check out little Lord Fauntleroy, with his degree in Strategic Management, bonafide.

You may know how to strategise, manage even, but you know feck all about Joe Calzaghe.

It annoys me when people think degree's are the vertex of intelligence, there's far more to life than one lame subject.

You cant measure real intelligence with tests because it only tests the ability to learn a boring subject, its just a test of someone's attention span.

He knows **** all about Calzaghe!!

Chris Eubank?!?! Oh yeah he was that over-the-hill over-hyped European with a rock-solid-physique and no ability.

You're right, Lacy hasn't beaten a decent fighter yet, all he's done is won a vacant belt against the over-hyped Vanderpool, but remeber he's only fought 20 times. Calzone has had double-digit "title defenses" against a bunch of nobody's.

And your'e also right, degrees don't make the man, it's the man that makes the degree (kinda like the title belts). The fancy piece of paper from Sacramento State isn't worth 10 cents, but my degree became worthwhile because it was a stepping stone to a 6-figure career at the age of 22.

Calzone and his promoter have made the belt worthless by defending against European nobody's. Now he's gonna fight Veit again?!?!?! IT'S A JOKE!

Remember children, this site is just for kicks, if we knew any better we'd be the promoters and managers of these guys.

Looks like you know about as much about Calzaghe as you do about Eubank.

Do you think Joe's fans, even the hardcore few are happy about the prospect of a rematch with Veit? Of course not.

Joe's crowning moment fell through not so long ago after a very respectable offer to fight Hopkins (stateside) was declined.

I swear to God, you come off as someone who's entire beef with a fighter is based on watching 1 fight and a trip to boxrec.com.

I've never been to boxrec.com, maybe I should check it out, and I've seen Calzone about 4 or 5 times now on Showtime, I'll admit that the kid's got dynamite in his left hand, but he's so incredibly awkward that he'd never have a chance against someone with mobility and skills that would give him angles and make him miss (Johnson, Tarver, etc.)...at this point it's a toss-up vs. Lacy becuase Lacy's never had to face a dynamite puncher, but Calzone will continue to earn the disrespect of US fans as long as he fights re-treads and has-been's.

This european thing is one of my worst hate's, its so very wrong to judge a fighter on their origin. Anyway europe produces some of the best fighters in the sport.

Hope you do well in your job, a degree is worth getting if it takes you to the right places, but IMO its not a measure of someone's general intelligence.

Once again, i think your perception about european fighters is so wrong. Joe Calzaghe has beaten some very good, underated fighters. He doesnt want to fight Veit its the WBO who are forcing the mandatory on him.
