Nice
RJJ and Joe Calzaghe are my fav boxers. Joe's last fight against RJJ was a dream match for me, though RJJ was far past his prime already.
Much better skills than me on that bag

TheVandalz - RJJ and Joe Calzaghe are my fav boxers. Joe's last fight against RJJ was a dream match for me, though RJJ was far past his prime already.Joe was also past his prime. He was moving up in weight,coked out,and couldn't close his left hand
Mad skills, very talented guy and easily in the upper echelons of fighters past and present.

TTT
Anyone who said he didn't have power was never punched by him
Awesome

stringtheory - Cool as fuck. Joe was a beast. VUReturned. I love seeing skills like this on display.
Daniel Plainview - Beast mode. Great dude to..
How many times have we seen football tricks in crowded city tourist spots.
Would any of them have made it to the premier league?
My point being with enough practice and dedication lots of people could do what we see in that video.
However, Calzage was more than a circus trick. He was a legend, a champion for over a decade. Sadly, unquestionably not really recognised in the UK, let alone the world what he accomplished.
So glad, joe retired at the right time.
awesome! reminds me of that badass rjj clip where he was working a double-ended ball like that! If a blue could be kind:

Rhys91 - Highly recommend his documentary.Didn't know there was one. Gonna watch. Thanks.
Was put onto joe as a youth by my dad watching him with friends and he'd rope me in and tell me how good, and how slick of a boxer he was. Massive fan of the Welshman, he's an example for any fighter out there fight smart retire smart. Brains still intact and has a few appearances on sky sports (uk) doing pundit work, if I'm not mistaken I think he's his own stable of fighters?

retired at the top of his game, with everything going for him. There was a lot of doubters here in the uk claiming he retired because he was ducking a young up an coming Carl Froch. Froch called him out for years Calzaghe never bit tho. Kept it classy and walked off into the sunset. Calzaghe would school Froch even now
So is hitting that thing as difficult as it looks? I think I would miss it more than I would hit it.
