    Is Gary Russel Jr the new Joe Calzaghe?

    Even though he is still young, the kid is padding up his record nicely with complete unheard of bums.

    What are the chances he beats an over the hill or a bonafide bum of a boxer and becomes paper champion? Only to milk that belt for years by beating quality losers before challenging Guillermo Rigondeaux 10 years from now and ending his career by fighting Donaire when Donaire has eventually been knocked out more times than Roy Jones Jr and Amir Khan combined.

      Clev is the new Calzaghe, has been for a while, although he stepped up too early.

          Word.

          He would have been the New Joe Calzaghe, hadn't he stepped up in competition.

              to be fair, he didn't realise he had stepped up THAT much.

                      Good point. One of the very few strengths of Joe was that he always knew who to fight and who not to. He should become a risk analyst now that he has retired. He can make alot of money from it.

                              He'd probably KO Khan

                                      After his fight with Diaz, Khan is one jab from this.
