Wasted his talent by fighting bums constantly. Falls behind Carl Froch in the brit legend stakes.

Re: Joe Calzaghe
 

Does he? beat Kessler, beat Lacy, unified the weightclass, Froch has a lot to live up to..

Re: Joe Calzaghe
 

Lacy was wank though wasn't he. Says a lot that he's Calzaghe's 2nd best win.

Re: Joe Calzaghe
 

Wank in hindsight, top class fighter at the time :lol:

Re: Joe Calzaghe
 

If lacy was wank what was the bute.

Re: Joe Calzaghe
 

Called RJJ shot in his autobiog, didn't stop him putting on and promoting a fight with him 3-4 years later.

Still a legend though.

I've told you my thoughts already BB.

Re: Joe Calzaghe
 

Hopkins
Kessler
Eubank
Reid
Lacy

IMO, are his best wins. Plus he racked up some very solid domestic wins, some decent contenders (like Mitchell, Brewer, Sheika, etc). People are a little over-critical of his WBO run when, in fact, it wasn't that bad.

At SMW he's only really missing Ottke as a contemporary champion. He beat the consensus number one guys in his division at an advanced stage of his career. He stepped up to 175 and beat The Man at the weight in Hopkins.

The Jones win was just a victory lap, so not worth being upset over.

Re: Joe Calzaghe
 

Can't argue with any of that.
