| Is Calzaghe crazy or what?
I read an article that says he intends on breaking on breaking Bernard Hopkins title defense record. He has a fight coming up against Peter Manfredo Jr. and if he beats him, he will tie Hopkins record. This is possible but he didn't look that good in his last fight against Bika. But that is not crazy part. He called Hopkins and Roy Jones Jr. broken records and all talk. Hopkins would execute Calzaghe. Hell Jermaine Taylor would give him a good fight.

Hell Jermaine Taylor would give him a good fight. | Hopkins is an incredible fighter, but I can't help but think at any time his age will show. He can't be that indestructable fighter forever so I wouldn't be surprised if Calzaghi pulled off a very close split dec.
RJJ is my favorite fighter ever but I can't deny he's all talk right now. He's way past his prime, his chin and speed has depleted and he looks very sad. Calzaghi shouldn't even entertain that fight.
Jermaine Taylor vs Calzaghi would be a hell of a fight that Taylor would win by Unanimous dec.
BTW, styles make fights and sometimes fighters have bad days. Bika seems to be a very good solid fighter. It happens!! |

Besides, he earned himself a mediocre performance by annihilating Lacy in one of the best performances of all time (yes, I know Lacy was over rated, but that doesn't detract much from his performance imo).
git.

I really want Calzaghe to fight Kessler after the Manfredo fight. It would be the first truly meaningful title match in any weight class in a long, long time.

i think if the Calzaghe/Taylor fight happens, Taylor will be exposed for a guy with a whole lot of athletic ability and not alot of boxing skill. Calzaghe via dominating Decision.

yeah it was a draw, i like both fighters but i had winky ahead by 1 round, just looked bad when taylor would hit him and move him but actually not to any damage, i think winky will beat him if they fight again
