Joe Calzaghe vs Andre Ward, Prime vs Prime, who wins?

[Pac=Duran]

I saw Jeff Mayweather ask around the Mayweather gym about this and got a pretty even response. I wasn't expecting that at all because those guys just usually pick the black guy haha.

This one is too close to call for me. You can be sure there won't be a KO or any KD's due to Joe Calslappy having the power of a small effeminate seal and Andre Ward hitting like a woman that just lost a divorce case so it would come down to a bunch of close rounds.

If I had to put money on it i's lean slightly towards Joe. If it was held in America Ward would be a favourite to get the decision.

What do you guys think?

Super close. Bump

who wins? we, the fans, of course

I believe that it would be close in the first 6 rounds but Ward will adapt better in the second half of the fight and cruise to a UD decision.

Ward would neutralize him like he did to Froch. Not saying Joe isn't going to be competitive but Ward just rises to the occasion like he did during the super 6 tourney.

Get off the fence.

Ward would school Calzaghe worse than Hopkins did

I pick Joe on points. He throws about twice as many punches as Ward and he is just as smart as Ward and just as clever a boxer.Joe didn't need to hold his opponent to hit him cleanly. He used fast combinations that Ward can't match. Kovalev could knock Joe out but Ward doesn't have the power to hurt Joe.

Ward, wiiiide UD, a stoppage isn't out of the question either.

Joe possesses nothing Ward can't handle, he'd be made to look sloppy and amateurish. Wouldn't be able to handle Ward's body jab and would get mauled inside.

Ward doesn't have the power to hurt Joe but Kabary Salem, Byron Mitchell, Hopkins, RJJ do despite having lesser power than Ward.

Believe it or not, Ward would be one of the biggest punchers on Calzaghe's resume. He's been put down and has struggled mightily against B and C level competition even in his prime.

Calzaghe

faster and more active from the outside and he can fight well on the inside too

don't see how Ward is gonna "adapt" because joe isn't a one dimensional fighter you can shut down by "adapting", he "adapts" to you too

joe takes it on higher workrate
