Calzaghe's weird punches?

[ultimateboxa]

Just watched his fight against Lacy and yesterday a replay against Manfredo. And noted that he has a weird hand position when delivering the punch that actually robs him of power. Anyone else seen this?

I love Calzaghe and think he would have had Manfredo inside 7 but he was(in the Manfredo fight) Throwing like a woman...  To no credit of manfredo who did not and would not capitalize!(Joe threw like his hand was broken!)

I don't care if it was broken or hurt...  Take lessons from gatti!  Hide it til its numb.. Don't throw it like your slapping your sister...(Again no credit to manfredo who slipped great but don't hate on the ref who saw you slip and be hit by 30 punches unanswered)... (I may be a Manfredo fan but... fuck... Throw a punch)

He has broke his hands many times in his career and has developed this punch/slap to save his hands from further damage.

Believe it or not Pride Of Boston Calzaghe used to be a bit of a banger in his younger days.

The issue that I have with Joe is that shit! he does with his hands where he leaves them to the side of his body dropped leaving his guard down.

I hear ya... Until just prior to lacy I had little knowlegeof him but I did a bit of homework... He is a great boxer and had a nice KO percentage... He made me a fan! But of late he throws like a bitch... But he isn't one! These brittle hands are killing him. Course Warren isn't doing him any better then his hands!!!!

He can't even do sparring now i believe because of his hands he had like 22 wins 21 kos going into Eubank fight he used to be very wild aswell in his younger days.

CC back . No it's true, he was a very hard puncher but as a young lad he never wrapped his hands. Every now and again you see a proper shot but its mostly 'slapping' and he aint done too bad with it to be honest.

I hear ya... I think he should have been exposed to the American public years ago... His style is exciting... It's friggin sad that we're just seeing the twilight of his career... Most Americans got to see the Lacy fight and thats it... He fuckin destroyed Lacy(Awsome fight) but hus promotion sucked(I've seen the Eubank fight and a handfull more)I can't wait for Lacys return...

I agree, but the money in the UK is to good to turn down, look at Eubank he made about 20 million in the ring without fighting any American star, or travelling. Calzaghe made huge mistake after battering Sheika in 2000 he should of fought in America and cashed in who knows where Calzaghe would be now if that happened. Shame really.

He is a boxer that could have done great things. Frank Warren keeps his fighters waaaaay too safe. I wouldn't be surprised if Warren thought Joe was gonna lose to lacy.

No way... Warren is way smarter then you or I and thats not a good thing for boxing

Poor Joe has really brittle hands, when he retires I bet he won't even be able to play Fight Night on his Xbox without serious risk of busting his hand.
