"I'm undefeated and I want to stay undefeated. I consider myself one of the best pound-for-pound and I'm going to prove it on the 13th. He knows what losing tastes like because losing comes easy for him," stated undefeated WBO super featherweight champion Joan Guzman as he talked about his move to lightweight and his upcoming clash with WBA, IBF & WBO champion Nate Campbell. Check out what else he had to say about the fight, Campbell and much more

I don't know what's up with Don King, I mean he was interested enough to bid on the fight and won, so you'd think it would be in his best interest to do some promoting. i don't get it. Or maybe he wants no one watching and has the judges paid off to give the decision to campbell? lol, I really dunno

LOL Tears of joy, and because I'm laughing so hard at your boy getting beat. I hope he gets his eyeballs splattered into the back of his skull.

LOL

Really, though...I've only found one file so far (just happens to be a Marquez fight lol) that didn't work, due to ''inactivity''...others seem fine.

Now, for all of that, someone has to teach me how to put these on a disc, what programs to use, how to change file formats, etc...LOL.
You looking for any Marquez fights in particular? Let me know which ones, if I don't have them I might be able to dig them up.

I'm looking for early in his career. I realize that they're harder to find, but I'd love to see these fights.

Calzaghe says he is going to retire after RJJ.

That's weak. I've always backed Calzaghe, but to go out like this?
I assumed they were doing a Pav vs Hopkins to set up a Pav vs Calzaghe fight, but I guess not.

Not like Joe Calzaghe gives a shit what I think, but he definately wont be in my top 10 lifetime PFP list when Im old. Not by pulling some bullshit like this. He might as well retire now with his win over Hopkins. Should have done it after Kessler if he is concerned about his legacy. A final win over RJJ will just make him look stupid. Guy was probably fighting for peanuts until he came to the US, and now he's calling it quits? Lame...

Heres the article:
Calzaghe: This is my last fight!
Super middleweight champion boxer Joe Calzaghe has confirmed that he will quit boxing providing he defeats Roy Jones Jr at Madison Square Garden in New York when the pair clash on November 8. In an interview with Setanta Sports News the undefeated Calzaghe said there's not much more to prove. "At the moment I'm definitely going to retire," said Joe. "As long as I win and I win in style then it'll be my last fight. I've achieved everything I can in boxing. I'm 36 years old and I don't want to keep on fighting. I love boxing and I love what the sport has given me, but I want to retire undefeated."

I'm sorry, and I'm probably in the minority, but he wouldn't crack my top 50 list. That may be an exageration, but not by much.

He's not a great boxer, and I don't think you can put him in the ''TOP'' of anything.

They've had some pretty good fights in the Olympics that seem to be getting brushed off because of the shitty scoring.
thanks homie. Yeah the scoring has been pretty bad.

I've missed the last couple of days of fights man, let me know if there are any that I really should check out...
