would calzaghe of ever been beaten??

Just off the top of my head, I think it was the fourth round Kessler lands a right uppercut that hurts Joe.

You don't have to be stumbling around or reeling to be hurt, but he definitely lost his balance point at the moment, and it happened after that as well a few times.

I'm not showing you a clip go watch the fight again you lazy bastard.

Well, prove me wrong because until you do, I know im right, Joe didnt faulter at all during that fight, he did take some big shots, nice clean shots as well and just shrugged them off to keep on working

Unless you can post a clip of him being "hurt" in the Kessler fight, shut up

You probably don't even own the fight, yet your talking trash, go to the file board, download the fight and watch yourself. If you can't do that then go fuck yourself. Calzaghe was hurt a few times in that fight.

No he wasnt, I watched it live dopey, Calzaghe was never hurt, Kessler was, he got a nice respite after the judge pulled Joe off him, Joe had just cracked him to the ribs

He would have lost eventually because his pace/workrate was his main weapon that won him a lot of fights and that inevitably declines with age.

Lose 20% of your commitment and he might not be as super fit stamina wise as he usually was and could find himself on the wrong side of a decision. But I dont think a top form Calzaghe loses to anyone currently around no, he just racks up too many points.

I think he quit at the right time. I think the fact he got put on his ass in the 1st round of his last 2 fights was a wake up call. Maybe showed a bit of complacency on his part. Maybe wasnt absolutely 100% focused on fighting. Maybe his skills/speed were starting to decline.

And fwiw I believe only those with the heaviest Hopkins/Reid tinted glasses could say he lost those fights. Hopkins draw at best and Reid took too many rounds off to get a points decision.

Dawson would take his 0.

I think the knockdowns were largely because he doesn't spar.
