Not content with calling out a 4-years retired Calzaghe, no doubt Ward will insist on the fight being at 168 lbs and in the Oracle in Oakland. Some things never change!
That said, props on a great performance. 'Dre deserves to be p4p number 2 behind Mayweather now. Pacquiao's star has faded in recent fights; I'm not sure I'd even have him in my top 5 any more.
On a serious note, yes, when Froch challenged Calzaghe, Froch wasn't proven. I actually thought Froch was a joke at the time because of his hands down, from the outside looking in, defenseless approach. So, no, Joe didn't duck Froch.
But, at the same time, if you're going to be smart and think outside the box, then you should also be able to realize that Calzaghe never fought anyone until he fought Jeff Lacy. Why do you guys think that Calzaghe was the underdog against Jeff Lacy? Because he never fought anyone until he fought Jeff Lacy that's why.
While I think Calzaghe is pretty damn good in H2H matchups, just starting your career and stepping up competition against Jeff Lacy in mid 2000's then retiring a few years after that after fighting Jones/B-Hop is weak if you ask me.
If Joe is going to make comments like that about Ward, I can see why they would ask him to come out of retirement right now.
Hey Calzaghe feasted on 40 year old fighters. Now its time to make his payback and be on the other end of the fence and get his ass beat by a younger guy. Ward should do a ****ing dance and shuffle like Calzaghe did when he was beating a shot RJJ.
