10 Years Ago Today - Calzaghe battered Lacy

Joe bashed him up good and proper but he was genuinely shit scared of him. I remember Frank Warren completely losing it with me/saddo's on a conference call for a fight I cant remember because someone here posted that Joe was pulling the bad hands routine to try and get out of the fight. He went spastic saying it was bollocks but Frank has since said himself it was legit and that Joe had to have him arm seriously twisted to go through with it.

Cracking performance. I remember Mad Dog saying at the time having never watched Calzaghe. It's like he's got six arms. I thought that was pretty apt.

Every time this fight is mentioned these days Frank proudly brings up that he had to convince Calzaghe to get in the ring.
