Joe Calzaghe vs Antonio Tarver

[DiegoFuego]

Tarver by a landslide points decision, maybe even a late KO

[- Evil -]

Give me a break....no 175lber would duck Calzaghe !

You know better than this Evil.....
I guess Calzaghe's lack of quality opposition has never been his fault ? I certainly don't see Calzaghe as a fighter striking fear in anyone.
In fact...what happened with his proposed match with Glenn Johnson ?

Tarver asked for a lot more money than he's worth which is well known as being the best way to duck a fight. Whether he can beat Calzaghe if a whole different story but he did duck him.

I dont see a big weight issue anyway, Calzaghe has major problems with weight he'd make light heavy very easily. It would be a good fight to make.

Glenn Johnson is superior to anyone Calzaghe has faced this millenium.

Well, seeing as Sheika beat Johnson I'd have to disagree.

Sheika is not, no matter what happened when they fought, better than Glenn Johnson.

Johnson has improved but i know exactly what you mean, i think all the boys at light heavy are currently overated(although Jones was once a very, very good fighter).

[Cletus Funk]

Sheika is not, no matter what happened when they fought, better than Glenn Johnson.

There's not a world of difference in their abilities so at best you could say they're evenly matched. Johnson's just a dedicated plodder and I'm happy he got some success because of the way he goes about his business but please don't try to make him out to be an elite level fighter.

Yeah, these guys are just living off the good fortune they had in catching RJJ on the slide.

Glen Johnson was robbed against Sheika. He actually won that fight.

There wasn't a lot in it from what I remember so I wouldn't call it a robbery, certainly no more of one than Johnson's win over Tarver.

WOW, another ridiculous thread discussing Joey Clazone vs. somebody who can fight back

IT'LL NEVER HAPPEN

Calzone will NEVER fight someone who poses any threat at defeating him

EVER

Calzone-Lacy, Calzone-Tarver, Calzone-Johnson, Calzone-Jones, WHY BOTHER bringing up these fights?

let's talk about fights that MIGHT actually happen

like Calzone vs. a milkman (those guys are tough, nevermind)

or how about Calzone vs. Laili Ali (wait, she's to dangerous....)

or maybe Calzone vs. Brian Viloria (once again, too dangerous)
