Thank you Gamo i have said this for ages, Calzaghe has struggled in rough fights. Reid, Salem, Bika, all these fights come to mind straight away, if anyone thinks Calzaghe is beating Hopkins easy they are seriously mistaken.
Yeah,there are 2 sides to it though. One is Joe struggles with phyisical fighters. The other is,that he fights to the level of his opponents. His best performances have come v his 2 biggest tests,and that is a sign of a great champion and warrior. He even said that he finds it hard to get motivated for the smaller fights,so maybe a big name like B Hop will ignite the fire?I hope so!
