Calzaghe is gonna go back to fighting bums

[medium-deek]

Lets keep the fingers crossed and see what transpires. The Lacy fight seems an age ago. Cant wait to see him back in the ring again.

Joe needs a defining fight, no doubt about it. The Lacy win just proved to Americans he was world class, now he needs to step it up, but theres not many guys out there.

Calzaghe is one of the best fighters in the world, he just needed a big win to prove it. His victory over Lacy was an amazing display, but Lacy was not a big name fighter. I'm afraid that Calzaghe is going to be content with that win for as long as he can be until the public demands another "challenge". I don't see Glen Johnson as being that challenge. That challenge is Mikkel Kessler at 168, but I get this feeling that Calzaghe has an even bigger head now and will only demand "big" fights. Not that you can blame him really because that's how the business works. But I will feel cheated if I don't see Calzaghe in with Green, Kessler, or Wright before he retires.

After reading the title of the thread, I was expecting to see Calzaghe v Roy Jones.

LOL!!!! Post of the day

I think Calzaghe will fight 1 bum & have 2 pull outs over the next year. I think he is happy goin out on the Lacy win & will retire within 2 years.
I hope I am wrong & we at least see Johnson & Kessler fights before he does retire. There are some good opponents/matchups out there for him.

If he's heading up to 175 after his next fight, we probably won't see him back at 168lbs.

Damnit, he's scheduled to fight in October and if he wins, and Glen Johnson beats Clinton Woods, then it's Calzaghe vs. Johnson in 2007 for the IBF Championship. THIS IS BULL****!!!!! It basically means Calzaghe is going to fight some loser (he plans to announce the opponent on Wednesday) and then fight Johnson, neither of which are good fights. He should be looking to fight Kesslerin 2007, not Glen Johnson. Unless he's fighting Allan Green in October, I have to say I'm really disappointed with Calzaghe.

It's on *********.com by the way

its better than fighting Roid Jones..

[DiegoFuego]

I almost want to see Calzaghe knock Roy's head off just to shut up the Jones fans. There are polls where a great number of his little boy fans are picking him to beat Calzaghe. Everytime I think of a Roy fan, I think of his kids dancing at ringside with wide eyes while Tarver whooped up on their dad in the third fight. That's the image I get of a Roy fan.

calzaghe always fights bums. the lacy fight was a career defining fight, but he just had one big fight to compliment a whole career of mediocrity.

if joe decides to fight a bum, i will not be suprised. he has this disability that doesnt allow him to seize any momentum that he gains in his career.
