Yep, people will have opinions but I think he has had a fantastic career, got out of the game at exactly the right time and done the UK proud.Quote:

P.S,there should be a Poll set up on here based on the question!!I would make one but i dont know how to.I would totally appreciate it if someone made one.That way we could judge on what people feel about Calzaghe retire!!
Cheers!;)
just finished watching calzaghe-kessler and still stick with my opinion it was one of the greatest performances from a british fighter in recent history.
Kessler was completely dominating what was at the time a fight and his strength was genuinely dictating the pace of the fight up until the end of the 5th when enzo gave calzaghe a stern talking too.
From then on in JC blew kessler away with quick hands and foot speed running complete rings around kessler who had no answer for it.
No - theres no one left to beat from his era. Job done. And if he did and wins then beating Marciano's record may enter his mind and he may go one step too farQuote:

All you need to do is look at the many 'I was wrong about Calzaghe' posts that have cropped up post Lacy. Thats the measure of how good he was.
I remember one of Mad_Dogs comments after Lacy, "Joe fights like he's got six arms" ;D
HA!Cant believe someone said that:-Xtheir call him Jeff "LEFT-HOOK" Lacy,but we never ever really seen his trademark "LEFT-HOOK" did we when he fought Calzaghe?:-\Lacy was totally rattle by the speed and volumme of Joe's punches and work rate.It was fantasic to watch,,,UNBELIEVABLE really.I've watched that fight tonnes of times on dvd and it excites me every time.I remember watching it live on t.v and i was totally blown away!Great performance!:)Quote:

Why can't calzaghe fan beat as honest as Joe? Pay close attention and read Joe's last quote carefully!!! ;)
I am the best, says honest Joe | Sport | This is London
Joe has to go down as one of the best boxers of the last 30 years and probably the best of British in my opinion!!
He has it all technique,movement,skill,speed,stamina,intelligenc e and had a fucking great punch early on in his career until the hand injuries started...
which only goes to show how good he really is, having had to adapt his style and then only punching at 50% capacity to protect the hands!!
He has his doubters and haters...but so fuck...they are wrong in their criticisms and time will eventually concede how good the underrated Calzaghe really was!!
