    Looking back i think his best performance was against Kessler.Lacy was just a master class but now we know Lacy was abit over raterd even though he was never going to be the same fighter after that beating anyway.

    Against Kessler he showed the great chin he has the warrior in him and the the versitility by changing game plan in mid round thats why i think it was his best performance.

    I know he was a big favorite,but after he took a beating he never looked the same since, people said he was over rated. Or is it that he took that bad a beating he carnt recovery mentaly plus the fact he got injured.

    he was undefeated & i think joe destroyed him bigtime & he was finished after that fight, if that fight hadnt of happened then i truely believe that lacy would of been dominent in the division once joe moved up.

    Surely Calzaghe has the best chin,stamima,work rate,and the most technical skills inside the ring in the game of boxing in recent times!!I truly wished he'd have one more fight left in him!


    Even the haters of Calzaghe will miss him sooner or later.Calzaghe was a joy to watch!!

    Mate anyone who doesn't recognise that What JC did to Kessler alone should shut any "hater" up and is no Boxing fan and clueless with it.
    They hate because they are jealous!
    Kessler (IN HIS PRIME and JC at 35 years old) was a big betting favourite as was Lacy at the time and Joe dealt with both in style and made them both look the older man and slaughtered them with ring skills that they simply couldn't deal with.....he gave both a boxing lesson.
    Not the most devestating puncher but was Ali a 1 punch Ko artist?
    Like you said his granite chin,speed,ability etc were second to none and he'd always go for a tear up and entertain if needed.
    Can anyone remember Joe being backed up for more than a few seconds against an opponent?
    haha these haters are just jealous fools at the end of the day and no true fight fan would ever see him as anything other than a great great fighter.
    Seem to remember Wacko being one of his biggest fans and having nothing but respect for Joes boxing brain.
    The man weren't wrong was he
    DON'T RULE OUT A COMEBACK....because his stock doubles if he's coming out of "retirement" £$£$£$£$£$£$£$£
    I think he may fight again
    If he stays retired then he goes down as one of the best fighters to grace the ring and certainly in recent times..look at his record and it speaks for itself.
    Best boxing night of my life was watching him destroy Lacy in Manchester and the atmosphere was electric and that stands alone as the most dominant world title fight peformance ever by a UK fighter.
    The fight game has lost a proper star in JC and he'll be sorely missed.

    Gonna make this a sticky for a while so the true fans can have their say!

    Well spoken!I could'nt say it better myself.I think he could well make a comeback soon.I've said it before,that if anythink someone"Maybe Hopkins"will call out Calzaghe while he's over at Vagas to watch the Hatton vs Pacman fight.He'll get called out while he is at Hattons weigh-in,i bet!!!
