    Is Ice dancing or crocheting your main sports to follow??? Because you sure do not seem to have a clue about boxing. Even Enzo with a shotgun couldn't get Slappy i9n the ring with a real fighter like Hagler. Hagler would destroy him:yep

    I agree. They were all controversial. But I think Taylor performed better, and it was three years earlier.

    Fans of Joe like to claim the Hopkins win as one of the greatest wins in history.

    On the basis that you are merely a Yank, you know nothing about anything. Forget boxing you are ignorant on all subjects in life, other than fiction, and fantasy. Hence Hollywood.

    Your boy Hagler couldn't even destroy the pumped up Lightweight Roberto, never mind a full blown S / Middle.

    Back to fantasy land you go, there's a good boy.

    No, if anyone ever actually said this they should be sectioned and made to watch Haglers career collection on repeat.

    What's more likely is this is a fabricated quote because you're bored with nothing more original to troll with.

    Whos better at SMW than Calzaghe.... Nobody :lol:
    L Lewis, tell me which historic HW would have beaten him and who you think is better?
    How many FWs in the last 20 years from America were better than Hamed in your opinion?
    Tell me who you think is better than J Wilde in his division from America

    Watch Auracle duck the questions

    They were both Franks fighters, but if you think that, why would the fight have been in England and not Wales?
    How did Calzaghe have his hands full with Thornberry.
    Do explain that one :patsch

    people slag him to hideous levels on here. mainly by the ignorant Yanks who claim that their **** is gold, and every ones gold is ****. never has there been a nation so ****ing deluded and disrespectful.

    if people claim lies and bull**** when it comes to Joe, then i'll tell them otherwise. the man was a great fighter, so i'd like to see him get his due credit. i don't overrate him, nor do i underrate him.

    unlike the Yanks who overrate the **** out of their fighters who were two bit nothings a lot of the time with a lot of failings about them. that's their arrogance and view that they are better people than everybody else that allows them to come to such a stupid opinion.

    Joes best win was Kessler or the career middleweight Bhop ?

    That taylor beat twice years earlier.


    Joe avoided the no 1 fighter in his division for a decade

    the pressure of Hagler getting to Joe? :rofl the other way round. it's the other way round. :deal

    a prime Joe would look to move around and box Hagler?? :huh you haven't seen a prime Joe have you? :-( he'd go straight at Hagler and mix it up from the start.

    Joe was knocked down by Hopkins due to timing, not power. how many times does this need to be said to the idiots on here? you should know yourself that this is the case.

    the Jones fight was his last. do you think the chin stays as strong until that age? no it doesn't. do you watch much boxing? the fighter who starts his career will not look the same at the end of his career. it's pretty simple.

    the shot he got caught with by Mitchell was a bomb. he got straight back up and dished out some himself. fighters can go down from bombs you know. doesn't mean they have a bad chin. look mat Ali for crying out loud. :-(

    the only other knock down was due to him getting frustrated and silly against Salem.

    all in all, a pretty clueless post. welcome to ESB. :good

    :lol: you're the ****** that posts about things that he has no idea about. that is stupid. but continue to avoid with these childish antics if you must. it exposes you for the know nothing that you are.

    a worthless poster with deep insecurities is all you are. joker.
