      Hand injuries.
      And, do an Advanced search and only search the Trading Block, it's in there somewhere.

        Old glass hands Calzaghe destroys the young Calzaghe who could actually punch.

          He caught Eubank with a hell of shot, lol at ppl in that thread months ago saying Trinidad could hit harder than Calzaghe.

            If you thought he had a good chin here you should watch his fights against Benn and Watson all of them are wars.

            He was past it when he was against Calzaghe.

              I've heard that Eubanks didn't make 168 effectively for this fight. Also, Calzaghe was a good puncher in his prime. The hand injuries that occured later on messed up his power.

                Trinidad is a harder puncher than Calzaghe

                  I'd say that he may have, but his prime was at 147.

                  However Calzaghe beats him up.

                    Calzaghe was a decent puncher when he was younger but sometimes relying on power to win fights can be detrimental to the fighter. I'd say that the Calzaghe of 2006 was better than the Calzaghe of 1997.
