    Calzaghe vs Bute?

    Who wins and how? I think it would be an exhausting and close fight really, since they have such similar styles. Bute has slightly better punching power I think, so he'd have the edge there. On the other hand, Calzaghe has far more experience and ring smart. I think Calzaghe would just edge it, but Bute would be one of his toughest fights ever.

    Bute has far more punching power but Joe seems to have a better ring IQ and is much buiser. It would be close but i like Calzaghe, Bute is still inexperienced at world class.

        Bute has shown me nothing to think he can win. He might be able to fowl and spoil and make joe look bad like Bika but he still drops a decision

          It would look like the Kessler fight.

              Calzaghe Would win easily I would like to see Calzaghe fight

              1. Andrade would be a GREAT fight
              2. Juergen Braehmer I think Calzaghe would get KTFO
              3. Chad Dawson

                NO! Only idiots and Andrade-nuthuggers think that.

                    If the Ref hadn't extended the count, Andrade would have Ko'd him like Froch-Taylor but Bute is the better fighter he just didn't prepare well enough for the championship rounds.

                    He should correct it in the next fight
