The Battle for the Planet - Saturday 19th April 2008, Las Vegas, USA. He stepped up a weight, off a plane, through the ropes and into boxing legend. 707...no, not the super jet but the number of punches thrown by "Super Joe" in a night of high octane fighting action. Calzaghe, in his first ever fight at light heavyweight and his first in Las Vegas took on the fearsome 'Executioner', the powerful fighter and former champion that feared no man. Within seconds of the opening round, Hopkins showed his skill and strength when he put Joe down with a devastating short, straight right hand.

WBO super middleweight champion Joe Calzaghe's 12 round dismantling of American macho man Jeff Lacy will live long in the memory. Calzaghe was sensational, with the bewildering hand speed that is his trademark, sending his confused and battered rival into retreat. Lacy, who arrived with the most fearsome reputation, was too busy defending himself to throw much back. The Welshman won every round, connecting, incredibly, with over one thousand punches! Promoter Frank Warren had billed the fight as 'Judgement Day' and after this sublime boxing masterclass the judgement is surely that all-conquering Calzaghe is one of Britain's best ever.
