Calzaghe vs. Klitschko

**BIGPOPPAPUMP** · 10-23-2006, 11:07 AM

You are dreaming. Calzaghe would get killed. His punches would be like a fly to Klitschko. It would be a bigger blow out than when Klitschko fought Byrd, who is a better boxer than Calzaghe and physically stronger too.

Didn't Calzaghe knock out Byrd in the amateurs?

That's not to say this thread isn't silly though.

calzaghe weighs the best part of 100lbns less than wlad i dont't think he really stands a chance

Joe could get a huge payday for one round of fighting and would get a sleeping pill from the Dr.

I finally figured out how Joe Calzaghe can beat Wladimir Klitschko! Like Corrie Sanders, Calzaghe is a southpaw. All he has to do is slip the jab and hit Klitschko with the straight left. Sanders has already proven it can be done. The difference is Calzaghe is fitter, faster and more agile than Sanders, albeit he does not have Sanders firepower. The firepower isn't necessary, all he has to do is bounce his left fist off Klitschko's face, and uppercut him with the right if he tries to clinch. This is all well within the range of Calzaghe's talent.

Watch how it was done:

That's like MAB fighting Calzaghe

I could see Calzaghe beating Byrd if anybody, but not Klitschko, the size difference is just too apparent.

Joe would get beaten by Byrd, even at this stage of Byrd's career

This is certainly one of the more creative fight speculation threads I've come across.

I couldn't see it happening.
