Just another one of Wacko's Drunken Round by Rounds Calzaghe vs Bika

[gyrokai]

Good news for Bika is...

Before the Lacy fight, Joe looked like he was slipping.
He looked "sluggish," "fought down to his opponent's level," started to get "long in the tooth."

Honestly, I don't remember Joe being sluggish other than against Ashira...& again...honestly...Joe aint that long in the tooth...so to speak. He's made minced meat out of his opposition...so there haven't been but a couple of "wars" for Joe to endure.

Not being arguementative...but for discussions sake...which fight is it that you consider that he "fought down to his opponent's level"?

I've got all of Joe's fights on tape other than maybe 2 or 3 of his first shots out of the gate...& I'm just curious as to what your'e talking about. Other than the Ashira matter...I can't recall that many slips. Sure he's been hurt...but he gutted it out to win.

Again...not argueing...just being curious.

The way Joe fought Lacy that night, he should have had all KO's on his record, early too!

Huh? You mean, he should have KO'd Lacy? Not sure what you mean. Joe's got a pretty good KO percentage amongst his many wins.

Joe just fought too good with Lacy. But he's "not consistent."

Disagree here totally. Other than the mishaps during his hand issues...Joe's pretty damned consistent & good at what he does.

Bad news for Bika is...

HBO picked HIM for a reason. One of them is he's no Collazo!

Ha. Now that is pretty funny. The problem is...there aint a Collazo at 168lbs...the only legit threat MIGHT be Kessler. Joe already smoked the fire of 168.

Again, I just hope that he's recovered from the hand issues. Another thing is...I just hope that he's properly motivated...I mean he had to get up for Lacy...let's just hope he doesn't sell himself short this go round...

Doubt that'll be an issue.

Woah Wacko.

Remember. It's me.

Well take it easy there.

I just wanted answers from a Calzaghe fan and I got them. heheh

The reason I have so many quotation marks is this is because these "phrases" came from
respectable writers before the Lacy fight. So I can't back them up, because Joe is
a well kept secret. I wish I could have seen him more. I've basically seen one older fight
and a few clips of others. And the Joe that fought Lacy looked like he'd kill 90's Jones Jr.!!! hahaha
..... well I won't get THAT carried away.. but he looked Spectacular to say the least.

Seriously, that handspeed and that ... what? ... 1900 PLUS punching stats, whatever it was,
was just UNHUMAN! He made Lacy look like he was fighting in mud, he was so rapid in flurries.

The performance was SO good, I don't think he'll ever live up to that fight again..... unless it's
a big fight. I have a suspicion that Joe Calzaghe only gets up for big fights. Because had he
always performed as well as he had with Lacy, he'd already have a deal with HBO.

Bika is not a threat and not worthy of HBO. He's only meant for the debut of Joe Calzaghe on HBO.

I only mentioned Collazo because we all knew he was dangerous from the get go and afterwards
Hatton paid for it... Ricky won... but the Hatton Express took a stop afterwards.
