Calzaghe vs Hopkins II

[ICB]

Let's face it, Joe is over the hill himself now. We saw this weekend what happens to a formerly great fighter who tries to restake his claim against the best at 38 and after a lengthy layoff. Joe would be better off fighting the likes of Hopkins than all those others if he is to comeback. If he wants more then it will act as a tuneup. Joe deserves a break, I doubt he even comes back, but we shall see.

Joe Calzaghe had plenty of breaks, fighting a shot RJJ who he said he would never fight. Because it would mean nothing beating him, but yet he retired on that win.

And now is coming back against a 45 year old B-Hop. Who has looked terrible in his last two fights, and whats even more ridiculous is that it would be a rematch, i mean honestly who the hell rematches a 40+ year old fighter ?

It's just ridiculous in all honesty, even the biggest Joe Calzaghe fans. Can't defend that, as i said if he feels Lucian Bute/Chad Dawson. Are too much of threat at this stage in his career.

Why not Danny Green ? who he would beat, and it would be well hyped up. Or even Tavoris Cloud who is a young champion, but very one dimensional like Jeff Lacy, who he should beat aswell.

Just tell me what hardcore boxing fan or any fan for that matter, would want to see a Joe Calzaghe vs B-Hop rematch ? the 1st fight was awful enough.

And to think both men are even older and less effective now, the 2nd fight will make the 1st fight look like Hagler vs Hearns.

I just think Joe Calzaghe should shut the hell up and enjoy his retirement, i didn't like him when he was fighting. But ever since he's been retired he's been making himself look like an idiot.

And now this just really does take the biscuit.

Danny Green v Joe Calzaghe would be hyped By who exactly?? You think HBO would pick this fight up? Dont be silly, that would a worst fight to make rather than the Hopkins rematch.


Calzaghe should stay retired.

Danny Green has a very big following since his win over RJJ, i think it would be a major event in Australia. People are talking about a tune up fight for Joe Calzaghe, i can't think of a better tune up than Danny Green. Other than Tavoris Cloud, but is he really any bigger ?

Please tell me then what other fights are there for him ? he won't fight Lucian Bute or Chad Dawson. There too risky for him at this point, a fight with B-Hop would just make. Joe Calzaghe look even worse, plus it would be a terrible fight, i can't see it being that hyped in all honesty.
