Joe always said the Eubanks fight was his toughest but I say this Robin Reid fight was no walk in the park either. Robin was a great fighter who didnt always get the credit he deserved either. Two great fighters here.
Round 11. That's when Calzaghe won the fight. He was struggling, then took that round. Plus the point deduction. To be honest, Reid should have had two points taken off him, he tried every dirty trick in the book.
Calzaghe absolutely had a chin of pure granite. Reid was a formidable boxer at this point - any of those punches would have spelled disaster for most opponents.
He was robbed badly out in Germany. If he had beaten Ottke it would have changed his career and he wouldn't have had to travel for the shorter purses etc.
Reids punches were catching chalzaghe Clean what a strong chin chalzaghe has also holding on Reid after them blows shows experience. but I think Reid edged this fight it was a excellent fight
Calzaghe has a great chin but will always be remembered as the greatest ever slapper they probably based the street fighter character ehonda on him. Quick slaps. What a clown.

Yep considering he won almost every round against Eubank, and this was close.
Calzaghe lost an awful lot of brain cells in this one.
The best one who stand toe to toe against Calzaghe

must piss you off when you hit a man so hard and he doesnt even flinch
Calzaghe’s claim to fame is by beating two legends past their prime.
Joe had a chin of Granite..
Always liked reid he was a good fighter and character

Reid never reached the levels of success that froch and calzaghe did on the boxing scene
A prime Reid would have beaten Froch

Calzaghe lost this one, plus he is a slapper. Not a puncher.
Close indeed, but I agree. A Reid victory.

Waa those power shots by reid
I love Joe....great fighter.....but he lost this fight, clearly.....received a gift.
I wouldn’t say clearly, I had Reid winning it by just one round (including his point reduction), but yeah, no way Joe won it, at best a draw.

What a retarded comment. You should go ask the 20 odd he knocked out, or Lacy, Kessler, Mitchell, Jones, Hopkins...
@@hambutty1 jones and Hopkins way past their prime. He lost to Hopkins and Reid- he was gifted the decision. Just a weak pitti pat boxer
Volume punching beat Hopkins and you don’t KO opponents with slaps 😂😂😂
Calzaghe was overated
