Joe isnt the most powerfull puncher, even his gym mate Locket said Pavlik hit a little harder but, if you are easy to hit or cant keep a pace then Joe Calzaghe is a nightmare opponent for you.

Joe does throw combinations that dont look damaging but he is acurate and if he can land on a few sweet spots a few times in quick succession then he is going to hurt them.

The Mitchell fight was a prime example.

Even in the Manfredo fight, ok some of the punches werent landing but Joe could have kept that up all night
