    Does Wrads dominace over Kessler make Clazaghe look even more mediocre?

    Whats Calzaghes greatest wins?

    I got em as Hopkins,Jones and Kessler. It obvious Jones and Hopkins were years past thier prime in thier fight with Clazaghe. Kessler on the other had was in his prime when Calzaghe beat him.

    But with a young green Ward dominating Kessler so easliy dosent it make take away from Calzaghes win over him untimately his legacy?

    Maybe Kessler is past his prime also?

    It sure looked that way to me. Although I was very impressed with Ward tonight.

        Well its really startin to look so. Maybe if Kessler bounces back in his next fight it will restore the luster loss on Calzaghes caree.

          It would make Calzaghe look bad if he had actually lost to Kessler, but he didn't.
          Does Hopkins looks **** because he lost twice to chump Taylor.

              Pullcounter, he would be competitive but I don't buy him beating Calz, Calzaghe has handspeed, workrate and can adapt. Kessler couldn't adapt and hates clinching, Calzaghe is good at clinching.

                I never really rated Clazaghe high but yes I feel this hurts him. Joe was known for his speed and he in no shape or form was really able to completely lay it on Kessler like Andre did. Andre is faster than Joe and would probably give Joe angels that he really never had faced by a primed fighter. Andre versus Joe would look similar to tonights matchup.

                  Jermaine Taylor isn't Bernard Hopkins career defining fight.

                    I say no cuz Kessley could be passed his best now. Or maybe Ward is that good. Maybe Ward is the truth.
