Wow! The fight's on. It's a gutsy choice for both men and their managers. It's a dangerous fight for Calzaghe because of Green's talent level and a risky fight for Green because of his lack of experience against world class fighters such as Calzaghe. You have to think that Green should have taken 1 or 2 more fights against easier opposition than Calzaghe, but maybe his management feels that he's ready, or if he loses that it will be a valuable learning experience.
You have to go with Calzaghe's experience to pull him through in this fight. 1 mistake like the one Green made in his last fight and he will not be able to recover. If he's careful he may go the distance and just receive a boxing lesson on piling up points with a lot of punches. Calzaghe's older but he still has superior hand speed and quickness. He will have to really watch for Green's left hook, but people were saying that about Jeff Lacy and it never was a factor.
