Comments Thread For: Joe Calzaghe: "Hatton Should Retire, Haye Will KO Ruiz"

[Clyde Barrow]

Hatton indeed should retire. And somebody will get KO'd in Haye-Ruiz. Just don't see it lasting 12 rounds. I wouldn't mind Haye being the one who gets stopped either.

[Dave Rado]

And both Ruiz and Chagaev fought far better and braver fights against Valuev than Haye did. Just the facts.

You can argue that Ruiz was braver against Valuev than Haye was, but it's ridiculous to say he was better - Ruiz lost twice.

I agree Ruiz will be Haye's toughest fight so far, though - much tougher than Valuev was, for stylistic reasons.

Don't listen to them.


Listen,at the end of the day,these Yanks still haven't gotten over the spankings I handed to their hero's.

What does our resident Boxing Scene Joe Calzaghe make of all this?

Listen,read the article,isn't it?

Shut the *** up joe!

Listen,at the end of the day,still undefeated and planning a career in hollywood.


Where's your undefeated record? Oh,that's right.You don't have one,do you?



I can tell you've missed me since I've been gone

I think as a retired fighter Joe has alittle to much to say about active fighters.

That's one of the silliest comments I've read for a while, even on this board. You forget, I suppose, that Calzaghe has been in boxing all his life, since a young kid, and has had an extremely illustrious career, just recently ended.

I'd venture to say that his little finger knows more about boxing than your whole body; and i suspect a 5ft. 7 inch, 250 lb. kid who plops his rear end behind a computer all day, and keeps his strength up with fast food hamburgers and potato chips, with a ton of candy bars to fill in the gaps...............................

0h yes, with the latest tiny lensed, rimless glasses.

Ruiz' losses were VERY suspect, as all the reports said. If he hadn't been so brave in engaging this monster, and got in, say, 3-4 jabs a round, then kept away from him, like our fine lad Haye, Ruiz might also have had a "win".

But, we know he was too beave for that, he wanted to win by more "visible"means-and i'm sure he thought he had....................like the rest of us.

Oh, by the way, I also had letters published by the RING, at least a dozen or more.

But what of it?? At least I was writing to them when Nat Fleischer was in charge, and almost every one of his writers and reporters went on to become very well known in their own right.

But again, What of it?? They're just letters, that no one will remember but you and I.

[edgarg]

Disappearing priceless literature......

I just sent in 2 other letters...........WHAT HAPPENED TO THEM??

O.K., O.K. They just reappeared, perhaps my computer playing tricks again?

The retired Joe Calzaghe, who hung up the gloves in early 2009, has once again called for Ricky Hatton to walk away from boxing for good. Hatton has been inactive since Manny Pacquiao knocked him out in two rounds last April. He announced a comeback fight for the summer. Calzaghe wants him to walk away for good.
