Poll: Calzaghe vs. Ward

[Mr. Invincible]

Thread bump. Get in on it.

prime calzaghe lost to robin reid but yeah he would beat prime ward for sure. ward could never move laterally and throw right hands like reid did. ward's just a one dimensional tomato can. then again i forgot prime calzaghe was a devastating puncher....

36 minutes of this.

Calzaghe 9-3 or 10-2. Ward was bothered by abraham until abraham ran out of gas.

Calzaghe overwhelms him, he's that good, adapts even better than mayweather and ward doesn't have the power or skills to keep him off.

That said I still think Calzaghe is a ****y prick.

[SN!PER]

Some guys are such wimpy punchers (not mentioning names) that you almost feel bad enough to legally allow plaster in their gloves to make it a real fight.

what are calzaghe's adaptive powers? instead of charging in throwing lots of ineffective flurries he charges in and throws a bunch of ineffective flurries? he keeps doing the same thing over and over until his opponent gets worn down. that's not adapting at all. that's the exact opposite of adapting. why couldn't he adapt vs reid? why couldn't he adapt vs bika? i guess holding the entire fight is a form of adapting but wait if he did that doesn't that means he loses....oh wait hypocrisy alert. why couldn't he adapt vs hopkins in the first 8 rounds? the only thing that changed that fight was hopkins got tired which allowed calzaghe to throw more(still couldn't land) he never adapted against these guys and the other guys he fought were so crappy that he didn't even have to adapt.

This fight is a mismatch.

Ward UD.

God I would love to see Ward sodomize Joe, but to be fair Joe is retired had drug problems and has his money and legacy in tact why even consider facing a guy like Ward at this point?

[J Dubb II 330]

Ward would roll.him, he is too good. Joe don't hit hard enough to.keep ward from moving forward, ward respected Abrahams power, ward had no trouble with him, just was a little hesitant, figured him out and it was easy. ward beat Kessler and Bika more convincingly. Calzaghe has great skills, but ward is just a better boxer.

He beat bike better than Ward did. Against hopkins there were adjustmensts a couple of times by both boxers, in the end Calzaghe had the better stamina and made Bhop fake low blows because he couldnt keep the pace
