Just maybe Calzaghe didn't care for a rematch because he felt the same as what popular opinions suggests which was a convincing Calzaghe victory.

A rematch would go the same way except Calzaghe wouldn't be a sucker for the lead right in the first round.
You mean like the one Roy Jones knocked him down with in his very next fight? Calzaghe was always a sucker for the right. There was no adjustment he could of made

And how the fuck can you or anybody have Calzaghe winning when he landed damn near no legal punches? Lot of people need to read up on basic boxing rules

Striking
The boxer can only strike with a closed fist using the front knuckle portion of the glove. Slapping with an open hand or striking with the wrist or lace area is illegal. The thumb must be held tight to the fist to avoid eye-gouging.
Shit not hard to understand
