    Calzaghe was a monster....one of the best all around boxers I've ever seen.

      This is the fight when everybody found out how badass Calzaghe actually was. They dont make vintage fighters like him anymore.

            Hard to say.. Joe is a better boxer but Pac has TNT in his gloves for his weight.

                the lacy fight was before he had hand problems? um no the lacy fight was near the end of his career and he had hand problems long before that like when he broke his hand against ashira. he didn't slap in the lacy fight? he always slapped even at the beginning of his career and what do you call all those wide "punches" he is throwing and landing with the inside of the gloves? those are called slaps and they aren't even legal but who cares about the rules am i right? slap and grab calzaghe beat the great jeff lacy that's all that matters.

                  "Yeah Joe Calzaghe whooped all them n*gga's ass. He put Bernard and Roy Jones on the corner. Calzaghe is a white pimp! He beat the **** out of both of them and put them on front street. [Bernard] talked all of that sh.t about never losing to a white boy and Calzaghe ended all of that talk."



                  The Mayweathers have always been fond of Calzaghe. Floyd bet huge money on Joe to beat Hopkins in Las Vegas. Game recognize game.

                    I say he is because of his incredible ability to adapt in the ring....his ring IQ was on the genius level.

                      i agree with you here. he knew how to take advantage of the refs/judges better than anyone. he knew if he threw a bunch of light punches without hitting his opponent the warren funded refs would stop it. against hopkins he knew he couldn't hit him cleanly so instead of trying to box and place his shots and be clearly beaten he tricked the judges by throwing a bunch of ineffective slaps that didn't even land.
