No excuses need to be made for Calzaghe, he has won all of his fights, but he has been known to fight down to the opponents level and brawl needlessly when he doesnt really need to do so...
Its unlikely he would do this against Kessler. As Calzaghe said before the Lacy fight. He can box or brawl, he is able to give us a different performance depending upon the opponent...
As simple as really...it aint rocket science...
I can't click you for another 24 hours...but that was beautiful!
I had to even borrow it & stick it on another thread because you said what I wanted to & I aint ripping you off...just cut & pasted it to combat someone making a statement about me over hyping Joe & his opponent.
:coolclick: miles.
OK I get that but thats pretty stupid.....
In that case for all of ODLH loses if the ODLH that fought Vargas would have fought all his fights he would have beaten everyone...
If the Duran that fought SRL I would have fought Kirkland Laing he would have destroyed him in 1 rd.
Fact of the matter is thats just a security blanket that people who couldn't accept a lost of their fav. fighter came up with......
Accept a loss or a bad performance for what it is, no excuses now like I said theres a huge difference when speaking of yrs./prime and all that other stuff but something thats happend in the same year thats just funny. A loss is a loss a bad performace is that a bad performance.
It's like saying the MAB that beat Rocky in their second match would box circles around PAC. :P
Thats nonsense regardless of what MAB was going through he lost and thats that.
You say its a security blanket to cover for a fighters loss, but I made the point very clearly that Calzaghe has never lost so there is no real need for any excuses...
If Calzaghe loses for a sloppy performance I will be the first to criticise, especially against a contender who isnt even highly ranked....but he hasnt...he has done what has needed to be done at all times in his career thus far.
Do you really think he would be as sloppy against Kessler? I dont, and if he loses its because Kessler beat him fair and square. If Calzaghe DOESNT raise his game and loses fair enough. If Calzaghe DOES raise his game and loses. Again, fair enough. But I doubt either eventuality is going to map out...
