    Comments Thread For: Calzaghe: I Would Have Beaten Andre Ward in Close, Tactical Fight

    Former unified WBO, WBA, WBC super middleweight world champion Joe Calzaghe feels confident that he would have beaten Andre Ward - had the two fighters met years ago. Calzaghe retired back in 2008, after winning a lopsided twelve round decision over Roy Jones Jr.

    Man absolutely none of these past retired fighters are going to say "yer i think he would have beat me".
    Lol, its what makes them fighters.
    Saying that i would have loved to see Ward get beat by Calzaghe.

      I could see that. Calzaghe threw a lot of punches.

          ive always sorta liked joe...thought he was very, very, good...probably underrated to some degree......but dude you barely beat an old hopkins...and your win over roy was like "yeah man nobody cares".....you might have beaten ward....but like i dunno....

            I'd favor Ward but wouldn't be a bit surprised to be wrong.

              Ward would’ve won joe didn’t have enough pop on his punches Andre would’ve beat him up on the inside all night I think joe was a tad underated but if he had fought jones and hopkins 5-10 years earlier they would’ve smoked him

                He may get with work rate but Andre was by far the tighter tactical fighter.

                  If they fought 10 times, 5 in Oxnard, 5 in Wales, Ward by close decision in all the Oxnard fights, Calzhage by close decision on all the Welsh ones.

                    I would imagine ward would have turned it into a rough fight. Calzaghe would definitely suffer a cut to a headbutt in this.
