whoa whoa whoa duder. I spoke with hobby a few weeks before, and he was so psyched about having another shot at Macca. I thought it was very unlucky indeed, because for my money he got hit on the back of the head, well out of the accepted areas where boxers are allowed to hit. While I believe Macca would have worn him down, I think that punch was especially unlucky for Hobson, and the ref didn't spot it was well behind his ears.
I'm a Macca fan, and this fight of two of Britain's nice guys is unfortunate, as I really for for MArk now, but to lose to that punch is just a little galling.

Well, there's a fair bit of criticism heading Calzaghe's way tonight, and personally, I think it's somewhat unfair. Much as I hate all the commentator's cliche's it takes two to dance the rumba, or summat like that. Basically, Bika came in in the same manner as Kabary Saleem came in, looking to spoil and to rough Joe up, in the hope to ruffle him, and somehow find a winning punch. At the end of the day, Joe showed a lot of grit battling with Bika, who looks like a proper brawler. I think the cut an early fouling disturbed Calzaghe, and as happened with Saleem, once he feels he's being fouled, he goes in and fould himself. He matched a roughhouse fighter at his own game, and while he didn't do it in a perfect way, as a boxer, he did what he had to do, and took what was, eventually, a comfortable win. It won't convince the critics, except to show he's not just a boxer.

im big calzaghe fan but mate he fought poorley where was all combos he only threw like 5 combos all night bika was stronger calzaghe didnt move him with his punches on other hand bika did move him bika was physically stronger and calzaghe won by about 8 rounds to 4 maybe 9-3 but to be honest not impressive at all im very disappointed

I wonder who still thinks Calzaghe would beat Roy and Hopkins and all that other unneccesary hype they gave him after beating Lacy.

Maybe if they hadn't blown Calzaghe up out of proportion like he was the second coming of Ali, Tyson and Whitaker with Roy Jones mixed in all in prime form then maybe dissapointment wouldnt happen.

I still think Calzaghe has every chabce of beating jones jr....bhop is more of a pick em, but calzaghe at this stage in his career has the advantages....

Ive not seen the fight yet, but though Joe didnt look good (so I hear), he did seem to win relatively comfortably...

^ I want these words of wisdom on record...

Agreed!!

[Cortez The Killer]

HAHAHA WOOOOHOOOO! Thats the way bika, from what ive seen he gave joe absolute hell! This is proof that joe fights to the level of his opponents OR maybe lacy was just one dimensional. Oi and before anyone criticises the way bika fought joe and saying he was dirty, yeah watch this fight and then watch hatton/tszyu and tell me hatton aint a dirty f*****. Anyway Calzaghe won but cmon bika aint kessler, kessler does hit hard and can box. Hes different to lacy who could hit hard but not box.

F YEAH!

You are spitting TRUTH! CC

[DaxxKahn]

Compared to you!

You have stunned me with your knowledge and skills....You are a debate master...Well actually something tells me more of a master bater but....why are you wasting space with this?

[yoitsdan]

It was the calzaghe of pre-lacy, that was doubted so heavily by everyone, he still outclassed him and it was a very enjoyable fight to watch. Kessler looked awesome against beyer, damn that'll be a good ass fight!

yo, calzaghe is a fucking joke, id say lennox is more of a man then him, and lennox is a bitch, all i got to say is time warner better not give this bs of billing a fight as LIVE when its not, and lennox and calzaghe togeather may be too much for my TV, it doesnt like pussies

You've obviously never laced up a glove in your life, how anyone could call another boxer a pussy is beyond me, especially ones who fight as fearlessly as lennox lewis and joe calzaghe.

ive been punched before, it has nothing to do with what im saying

PUSSY = BEING AFRAID OF CERTAIN PEOPLE

calzaghe fears every single decent fighter
lennox fears vitali

[yoitsdan]

its losers like you and the other 1% of this board that spoil and it for me and many others i'm sure, that almost make me not wanna visit this board.

[SalTheButcher]

spoil what?

im telling u how it is, calzaghe gets no respect in the US, he hasnt beat anyone but lacy, who d\idnt try to block a single punch, and lennox got his ass beat by viali and never gave him a rematch

You were being rude mate so he did the same to you. Its not fucking rocket science.

[CutMeMick]

Kessler beats Joe any day of the year.

Lennox is a bitch and Joe is a pussy? Your just a prat. Id love to get you in the ring with either and see them punch your fucking head off.
