Joe Calzaghe the greatest super middleweight ever...

who did joe beat?

He has had like 1 great win and maybe 2 alright ones. And then the rest are all questionable including the reid , jones, eubanks and hopkins.

i'd say he is the most over rated smw. if the 0 means that much then ottke must b sitting just behind calz in atg.

 

Who's this moron? Yet another popkins alt?

 

Acheivement in the division, yes. Head to head, its debatable. Mclellan and RJJ would beat him IMO, and a case could be made for a few others.

 

The yanks were simply too slow-witted to catch on regarding the WBO, unlike when their own world title (IBF) was created :roll:.

 

Check this thread out it explains how the WBO was the last one to be created ..

too bad he didnt wanna prove it in his prime.

what i'm sure of is that calzaghe is the most protected super middleweight ever.

 

Damn, they call losing a SD while feigning low blows and bitching to the ref a schooling nowadays? :dead

 

atsch

He beat a lot of RING (I repea, not WBO, RING) rated SMWs.

 

in what way do you think that calzaghe was more protected than roy jones and james toney at 168?

 

Um, Jones and Toney fought each other...

 

yep, now go and check the other 10 fights each fighter had faced at 168 and then come back and tell me why they fought the most disgracefull run of competitors that 168 has ever seen, instead of taking on the best in the division.

 

He's not the greatest anything. Even if he is, being the greatest SMW is a little like being the tallest midget. The top all time SMW would struggle to crack the top 60 at MW or LHW.

 

If i I remember right it was something like only 8 or 9 top 1O guys ranked by The Ring.

It was a while back, so I could be wrong.

 

So you think that was BHop's PRIME? Come on now.
