Calzaghe fought old boxers. Sorry. Not great at all

1. Eubank took this fight at 10 days notice when Collins pulled out and showed tremendous spirit. Whatever you may think of Eubank, he was a warrior in the ring and a gentleman to boot. A class act. 2. Calzaghe has absolutely no reason to go toe to toe in the final rounds, being miles ahead but he always did go for the K.O no matter what. Calzaghe went unbeaten his whole career, no draws,all wins and is truly one of the world's greatest but I still feel he doesn't get the respect he should. He ducked no one and beat em all. Go kid! 3. You look at today's so called world champs and they're all ducking one another, blaming one another. They need to take a leaf out of these guys books, who just got on with it. The only downside is I think Calzaghe didn't earn anywhere near what he should have done and his promoter should be ashamed of that.

Eubank did land one last decent shot on Calzaghe’s chin in those closing seconds but I think the commentator bigger it up a bit just because JC was holding after it.

I commented the same ..after the tragic Watson fight, Chris was never the same.....when you see how close he and Watson have now become, you understand how much it affected him at the time.

Over here Calzaghe wasn't thought of very highly until later in his career. Some were never convinced that he was a top level fighter but I was impressed with him the first time I saw him fight. When he began to fight the best in the division he handled all of them very well. In fact, some of them didn't know how to deal with him at all, Jeff Lacy a good example. Calzaghe is deceiving in that he's fairly tall and slim, and his punches don't appear to pack much power behind them. His hand speed and accuracy are what had everyone fooled. He would routinely land 3 out of 4 punches in a blur and the speed was providing the power in his punch. Getting hit several times very quickly, over and over round after round has an effect on anyone's chin. You can't counter punch him very effectively because he lands a flurry quickly and he's gone or leans back before you can return fire. He has one flaw in which he tends to hang in the pocket too long when he's dominating a guy and he gets caught sometimes in those instances. All Calzaghe ever did was beat the hell out of everyone they put in front of him. In spite of that he was steadily criticized regarding a lack of punching power. I saw him hurt many guys despite the claims that he slapped instead of punching. I'm more impressed with his 46-0 record than with Floyd's 50-0 record by far. Floyd was king of the cherry pickers and had several questionable things going on during his career. Calzaghe had no such baggage, he was clean and he beat up a lot of guys , some surprisingly easily.

Wich torch?????

Amusing to hear the commentators gradually understand what sort of fighter Calzaghe is - from wondering if the powerful southpaw could go more than eight rounds to marvelling at the constant 50 punch a round count...

Joe one of the best fighters in the world, but not taking nothing away from Chris, both great fighters both legends in the ring. 🥊 🥊

Chris Eubank had class and style, great fight, great win by Joe.

Chris was passed his best, but what a true champion,....

Belief, heart, Speed, stamina and a chin in spades. Everything a fighter needs. Respect to eubank.

eubank was a fraud, look through his record. aside from benn, he beat no one. wbo was a tin pot belt, unrecognised as a genuine organisation & their rankings were devoid of genuine class.....decent fighters had no interest in contending in the wbo & the recognised bodies refused to sanction fights that involved the wbo. eubank fought exclusively on itv, very limited interest outside of the uk.....names magically appeared in the wbo top 10, unknown domestic level, in their countries, fighters . Names like Ray Close (twice), sam Storey, Dan Sherry, Gary Stretch, Dan Schommer etc. He lost every fight he had against half-decent opponents.....thompson (twice), collins (twice), Calzaghe. He fought in an era where there were names like Toney, Nunn, McCallum, McClellan, Barkley etc, but made no reference to them, in fact, refusing to answer questions about them. Outside of the Uk, no one knows Eubank.....

Nice fight! 👍 Is it just me, or were other people hearing Mickey Mouse at ringside in this fight? 😆

I used to hate Eubank when I was younger but as I've got older I've liked him more as the performer, now I have a lot of respect for him for who he Is today, both great fighters In their day and great entertainers of their times, this has got to be one of the best fights ever👊

Chris gave his best to the young and charismatic fighter who ofcourse came to the fore

Chris Eubank is a warrior bro. Have nothing but respect for this gentleman.

Joe’ our finest 🇬🇧

Absolute world class boxing match what a show

Joe you are great.

Best thing about it is if he'd of been black, he would have had more recognition he deserved.... But a small town welsh boy...... True

Past it Eubank Took this fight at a moments notice Calazslappy admitted this was his hardest fight in his career, Eubank was a beast

Amazing,Joe and his dad in so many ways ,the dragon

Joe was one of the greatest, Eubank was never the same following the Watson fight(he always seemed to hold back).

What an amazing fight. Calzaghe proved what an incredible fighter he is in the toughest way possible; meanwhile Eubank showed just how much heart he has. In this case, both fighters could walk away with their heads held high. Wonderful stuff.
