      So you had it a draw?

        He retired because there wasn't anyone out there that could beat him, the closest was Chad Dawson matchup..but Dawson would have got schooled, too inexperienced.
        He was inexperienced even though he "schooled" Adamek? Calzaghe wouldn't have schooled anything IMO. Based on styles,Dawson presented his toughest challenge. Joe just made up some excuse about Dawson not being a "star" to get out of it.

            Calzaghe didnt have to fake injuries to get his wind back. Bhop shouldve been disqualified for wasting everyones time.

              lmao
              That vid is nonsense, and the vid maker has too much time on his hands
