Ward vs Calzaghe

[Gandalf]

I'm not going to choose between my favorite goldfish Master. It's not happening.

Ward v Calzaghe would have been a great fight. No idea who would win, but I know that each guy would be the best opposition that the other fought.

[smashup]

Very close fight, I don't think there would be a KO either way but reckon Calzaghes slightly faster punches would see him win by a few rounds on points.

RJ gave Toney a boxing lesson and that was fairly easy..JC does the same but probably gets knocked down in the process.

Part of me think Calzaghe's style would be good for Toney. Toney needed guys who put on the pressure so he could counter effectivley but another looks at James Toney's record and sees the trouble Montell Griffin gave him TWICE....he's certainly not beating Andre Ward and on his day Calzaghe was as slick as there was he might get off balance or dropped once but over all he would pitch a shutout.


When James Toney was at heavyweight I kind of wanted to see him and Tyson fight even though Tyson was well beyond his best.

The fact that Tyson was beyond his best was the only thing that made it competitive. I think the Toney that stopped Holyfield would have beaten Tyson too a that time.

Very true, but Toney's actual style was good to combat the style Tyson had. Tyson's best punches were hooks, uppercuts, and the 1-2 he threw didn't have length on it, quick but no length and with Toney's shell defense being so good (on his day) the rolling and countering would have been a sight to see.


I like the style matchup it's like Hatton-Mayweather but in a phonebooth, no running all over the gigantic ring Floyd had. Credit to Floyd, but Toney aint' putting in that roadwork lol.
