Andre Ward vs prime Joe Calzaghe : who wins?

[TX_BOXNG]

He could barely beat old hopkins, smarter, younger ward would school him, he retired cause he didnt wana face Dawson, he was good but i dont think a great, he didnt have many fight against elite opposition in division, he could of but he never proved it

[IMDAZED]

I think style-wise, Ward has the advantage. But I'm not ready to call him the greatest 168lber ever or anything.

i hear that. he has not surpassed sven ottke just yet.

[sdcluser]

Ward. Just look at the resume. Can beat all type of styles.
1/2 of defense of Calzghe is not even in top 10

[HitmanHattonAY]

Ward wins easily

Stiff, slow European plodders and a weight drained hype job is "All styles"?

**** me the old septic tanks get carried away

Ward finishes Calzone in 5.

[Spray_resistant]

A very tough pick for me, I mean Ward is much more technically sound inside and out both are great at making adjustments to opponents but Joe is very active and awkward which sometimes negates proper technique.

i think most people know deep down that ward would beat calzaghe

don't have to reach down that deep to know the truth. one guy is a great counterpuncher with great defense who can fight inside and outside and controls the pace of fights beautifully. the other guy has no defense and fights completely square but he throws a lot of punches whether they land or not! yeah close fight I just don't know....
