Thread: Calzhages last two fights.

I'm a Joe fan first and foremost; however his last two fights were against older fighters [I know he's no spring chicken] do you think he'd struggle going back to a young fighter now with a good work rate? I seriously do.

Not really, it depends on the style of the younger fighter I suppose. Kessler looked more tired than Joe at the end of their fight. Joe's fitness and workrate has always been one of his major strengths.

No he wouldn't. He proved that against Kessler last year and his experience against 2 ring legends would have only improved his ring generalship and he appears to have settled in at light heavyweight. The only worrying factor for Calzaghe now is his hands. Yeah he may hit the canvas following a flash knockdown but as we've seen that only works in his favour and prompts even more output from Joe.
