I think Calzaghe wins. Calzaghe always looked supremely confident in his fights last night Cleverly looked very nervous as soon as the first bell went. Calzaghe had a great ability to hit and not get hit, he would land combinations then spin off leaving his opponent punching thin air.
Callaghan beat Mikkel Kessler in his prime. Kessler was a very similar fighter to Kovalev. Joe Calzaghe by UD
Isn't it too early to be comparing Kovalev with a certified/sure-fire HOFamer like Calzhage? One swallow does not a spring make. One smashing win over a still untested fighter as Nathan Cleverly does not elevate Kovalev to the level of the likes of Calzhae, Jones, Hopkins or Toney at 168. Am afraid UK middleweights and light heavyweights are fast becoming notorious as their horizontal kins at heavyweights!
Let's see Kovalev against some of the more established and durable light heavies especially Pascal, BHop and Stevenson.
joe calzaghe wins ud prime joe calzaghe pre jeff lacy fight tko 8th kovalev has not faced the great opponents calzaghe has prime mikkel kessler prime jeff lacy the great and smart bernard hopkins. kovalev victory over a rookie is no biggie
that is a tough 1. calzaghe is a master technician. he is an excellent boxer who uses his head unlike many fighters. i think sergey would have problems with him
joe cualzague he punches inbunches very very fast not hard hitar but fast he win yes?
who wins?
