The full fight, just as it happened!

It was arguably the finest performance from a British boxer in recent times. WBO Super-middleweight champion Joe Calzaghe's 12 round dismantling of American macho man Jeff Lacy, will live long in the memory for those lucky enough to be ringside at Manchester's MEN arena and the millions watching live on TV.

Neither man had ever been beaten; Lacy had never even been knocked down. He lost both proud records. His IBF crown ripped away as he was handed the most comprehensive beating he will surely ever take.

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.

Promoter Frank Warren had billed the fight as "Judgement Day" and after this sublime boxing master class the judgement is surely that all-conquering Calzaghe is one of Britain's best ever.
