Finnegan Posted 5 March 2006 Share Posted 5 March 2006 Joe Calzaghe, LEG END. Doesn't matter if you're not normally a boxing fan, if you're reading this and it's not too late to catch the repeat on Sunday morning - watch the fight. Absolutely first class fight. Anybody else stay up to watch it? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Muz Posted 5 March 2006 Share Posted 5 March 2006 Calzaghe is the best fighter in Britain. He mullered Lacy , very intelligant boxing by Joe , did'nt open him self up for Lacy's left hook. Hopefully he'll be recognised in the US now. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ric Flair Posted 6 March 2006 Share Posted 6 March 2006 Calzaghe is the best fighter in Britain. He mullered Lacy , very intelligant boxing by Joe , did'nt open him self up for Lacy's left hook. Hopefully he'll be recognised in the US now. It was a boxing masterclass, it really was. Lacey was lucky not to be sparked out and permanently damaged, the ref was cutting it abit fine at times. I thought it should have been stopped after about round 6 or 7 and Lacey could have been severely injured but it's testiment to how good Calzaghe is that he destroyed someone as strong as Lacey is and that Lacey withstood one hell of a beating. Ricky Hatton is up there with Calzaghe I think, both phenomenal boxers. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Head Honcho Posted 6 March 2006 Share Posted 6 March 2006 Calzaghe is the best fighter in Britain. He mullered Lacy , very intelligant boxing by Joe , did'nt open him self up for Lacy's left hook. Hopefully he'll be recognised in the US now. He is now arguably the best pound for pound Boxer in the world never mind Britain. He should now unify the title by beating Kessler, because unless Bernard Hopkins wins the light-middleweight title back there is no point going up a weight, the present title holders are not what you would call box office draws! ..............although Clinton Woods at The Millenium Stadium would be nice for the UK.
