    :rofl:rofl:rofl:rofl

    yeah, sure he's better. Frazier is clearly one of the most overrated fighters in boxing's long history. so is Foreman, amongst others.

    Turpins win against Robinson is better than Frzier's win against Ali. so you contradict your point.

    the fact that you think joe is in foreman's or frazier's class is f'ing epic.

    then Joe got the numbers wrong. it was reported that under 3000 tickets were sold to Brits. not all of them were Welsh.

    :lol:

    Hagler got the win you fool.

    and what part of "we're not always spotless when it comes to giving the right decisions to the right fighters, but we're clearly the fairest" didn't you understand?

    you want to stop responding to me? you're the one making a complete fool of themselves here. not me.

    but you do have a load of Bull**** going on in your head, so this is just more delusion to add to the pile. Hmmmm...

    so a robbery that happened 200 years ago means that corruption has been going on that long in the UK??

    go and have a lie down. you're clearly not thinking straight.

    **** for brains?? you Americans need to educate yourselves about irony real quick. it's completely lost on you lot.

    which is a real shame because you'll never know how idiotic you really are. but i'll sit here and laugh at you all the same.

    please continue with this farce... :think

    Hall of Fame doesn't even exist in Europe. I was talking realistically about the circumstances of both fights, Calzaghe's best win was Kessler.

    Calzaghe beating Hopkins was pretty much viewed as Joe going to the US to defeat an American legend before he retires. Over the years it became more significant as Hopkins got back on the track and continued winning despite his old age, but realistically speaking, I wouldn't rate it as high as the Kessler win.

    of course the points i was making have been lost on you. you've been doing it for the whole Thread.

    Foreman and Frazier are disgustingly overrated it isn't even funny. Foreman couldn't even box for ****, which is why his resume was thin.

    now if Foreman were to enter a zombie competition, then he'd be an ATG. but in boxing, forget it. never!!

    now joe is wrong too. haha! i guess i was dreaming there at the fight. joe, as well. i had calzaghe winning. i probably wrong about that too. :rofl it's hard to argue against the reliable brit media. all the calzaghe stories get a little "greater" as time goes by. you just have to keep making up stuff. pretty soon people will be claiming there was 14,000 americans at the fight all rooting against joe. what a joke.
