Calzaghe Returns!!!

[ross]

Robin Reid? Who wants to see that?

Given the current landscape with Froch tied up, there are only two people I'd like to see Calzaghe fight: Chad Dawson and Lucian Bute. Lucian Bute v. Joe Calzaghe on HBO would be a big event. It's just the kind of fight Lucian Bute needs with the rest of the top guys tied up in the super six. And he does great business in Montreal. Plus HBO is high on him because of his last two performances destroying Andrade and Miranda.

No, it wouldn't, sadly. People aren't interested in 2 white guys duking it out. Remember Kessler-Calzaghe? It did nothing in the States.

Thats because neither fighter had spent anytime here....Neither man had an over abundance of fights even shown here during their career...It was bad marketing not lack of caring if they were white...

I guess you forget about the interest two of boxings whitest guys in 25 years "Irish" Micky Ward and Arturo Gatti

They are pale skinned but not sure if they are "white"? Does white just mean European? Spain and Portugal are in Europe and they are hispanic? but anyway what about Barrera and Morales? Marquez and Vasquez? In fact to counter the crappy race argument, name a fight as exciting as Morales v Barrera, marquez v Vasquez and Gatti v Ward with a non white fighter in?? All those fights had rematches because of their quality.
