Comments Thread For: Calzaghe: I Would've Been Too Strong and Fast For Ward

[richardt]

Someone comparing both at 24-0 doesn't count because that assumes Ward goes on to do great after 35 years of age. And saying that we should not compare Ward to Cal before Ward reaches his prime can work both ways because it is possible someone could beat Ward and then that can take away the Ward Luster in a comparison, depending on how Ward loses.

he had nothing to lose during his career either. if he lost that would smash his legacy of being the best bum fighter on the planet? he was just a coward plain and simple. he even pretended to be scared of flying and used that as the reason he couldn't fight over here. then he cured himself when hopkins and jones were older than dirt. then he retired...........this is an all time great wow boxing is garbage then.

I agree about the Jones take, he was nothing but a shadow of himself but you have to give credit on the Hopkins win in hindsight after what Hopkins has went on to do. It's obvious that while old, Hops was still very near his best and in my opinion, Joe beat him very clearly and actually made him feint injury to avoid additional punishment.

Joe is obviously on Coke... Obviously

Calzaghe was faster but Ward is physically stronger. "IF" Cal wins it would not come down to him being stronger and more powerful. It would be one hellava fight that's for sure.

I think Cal has one of the most padded resumes in boxing and I class him in the Ottke category , what Ward achieved in winning this series at this point in his career has more merit than what Cal achieved in his entire career , fighting Bhop and Jones when they were way passed their best didnt do it for me , other than them and kessler nobody else is there , Eubanks was shot to **** and making a comeback , I think Cals Kessler win was his careers best .

It's only been 2 years Joe... Put the caine down and make a come back.

You read my mind! Ive been thinking this from the froch fight!!!!

[jtcs1981]

Yeah right. Like you were leaving England to fight him. Dont you remember you were scare of flying? You wouldnt fight any good AA fighter and that is the truth. You were scare of loosing your 0.

I mean it's not like he's been in countless wars and is on the brink of suffering from brain damage.

I don't get why he's so reluctant to make a come back.

Calzaghe already beat the craftier, bigger, stronger, version of Ward in Bernard Hopkins. Hopkins Jr would be a piece of cake.
