I agree with bits of dark lord al, POB, markus..

I don't hate calzaghe cause i think he isn't a good fighter, or whatever, i hate him cause he is wasted talent in a sport that i enjoy very much watching.. Dark lord al hit it on the head, when he says "he can't take my power" etc.. He talks the BIGGEST game, says he's the best fighter blah blah fucking blah, but he strayed from the US and big fights his whole career, until now.. I think Joe is a great, crafty fighter, who has a lot of heart and is extremely skilled, but it pisses me off that he'd talk smack after beating people like manfredo.. said something about hitting him so hard he broke his hand, blah blah.. He's the most pompous MORON in the media.. and that is why i hate him. ..IMO Calzaghe needs these fights to be remembered as the great fighter HE thinks he is.. If no one knew who he was and someone said "you don't know joe calzaghe? he defended his title 20 times etc.. etc.." then yeah that's great.. but to fans who know him and know how he's acted over the years, and who he's actually fought, that isn't good enough for me to feel he's the elite fighter he feels that he is..

fight roy jones, and beat him convincingly, fight kelly pavlik and beat him, and retire as one of the greatest fighters to step in the ring.. Maybe he already is one of the greatest fighters who has stepped in the ring, but how else can you prove it unless to fight the BEST of the BEST? He is finally doing that, and that is essential to his legacy.
