    P.S,there should be a Poll set up on here based on the question!!I would make one but i dont know how to.I would totally appreciate it if someone made one.That way we could judge on what people feel about Calzaghe retire!!

    Cheers!
    No - theres no one left to beat from his era. Job done. And if he did and wins then beating Marciano's record may enter his mind and he may go one step too far

    Some people feel obliged to hate on Calzaghe, that'll never change, its every posters prerogative to dislike fighters for little or no apparent reason. I should like Glenn Johnson but I cant

    All you need to do is look at the many 'I was wrong about Calzaghe' posts that have cropped up post Lacy. Thats the measure of how good he was.

    I remember one of Mad_Dogs comments after Lacy, "Joe fights like he's got six arms"

    HA!Cant believe someone said thattheir call him Jeff "LEFT-HOOK" Lacy,but we never ever really seen his trademark "LEFT-HOOK" did we when he fought Calzaghe?Lacy was totally rattle by the speed and volumme of Joe's punches and work rate.It was fantasic to watch,,,UNBELIEVABLE really.I've watched that fight tonnes of times on dvd and it excites me every time.I remember watching it live on t.v and i was totally blown away!Great performance!

    Joe has to go down as one of the best boxers of the last 30 years and probably the best of British in my opinion!!

    He has it all technique,movement,skill,speed,stamina,intelligenc e and had a fucking great punch early on in his career until the hand injuries started...
    which only goes to show how good he really is, having had to adapt his style and then only punching at 50% capacity to protect the hands!!

    He has his doubters and haters...but so fuck...they are wrong in their criticisms and time will eventually concede how good the underrated Calzaghe really was!!
