    then you are clearly

    1. not replying to the post made, therefore failing
    2. wasting my time
    3. avoiding answering the post for some odd reason

    but if you mujst do all 3 of these things, please do.

    and when you finish you can then try answering MY post instead.

    You can't compare Jeff Lacy to Kovalev.

    Calzaghe beating Jeff "ATG" Lacy is the greatest win by anyone (past or present) in the history of boxing. On that I think we can all agree.

    Herol you accuse me of (1) not replying to the post made. (2)wasting your and (3) avoiding answering. Well heres the origional post that started this little owning of you. Here you interjected to into a converssation you were not part of, offering this gem displaying your intelectual prowess:

    ________________________________________
    nocalzaghe is not amaster boxer, on the offensive side he is frequently outlanded % wise whenever he stepped up above national, and frequently gets caught on the defensive side.

    in fact he relies on being able to take punches from his lesser opposition. Against KO4clev this would not work, though he could get a wales ref to stop the fight for him and thus cheat a win easily as he did.




    So I replied thus:

    'Herol, what are you talking about? Outlanded on a percent basis. Ha, ha!

    Thats amazing.

    The best bit is you don't even have those figures! You have actually just made that up. Which by the way Herol, means, by defition, its not a fact.

    Its something you'd like to be true.'



    Thats me addressing your point. As in ANSWERING THE QUESTON. Your english skills are appalling. This is what I mean when I say your a re****!

    Anyways lets continue embarrassing you shall I?

    Your origional point as you interjected was 'he was outlanded on a percentage basis by lots of his opponants'.

    My address being, 'thats what you want to believe'

    Are you really this re****ed?

    But you really are aren't you, because you replied with this:

    why I need to invent the figures when they are there to be seen. watch the fights against the fighters above national level - it wont take more than 2 hours.

    it is you who is being disingenuous, or perhaps you just ignore what you don't like.




    I replied by ridiculing you because you are a re**** telling me that addressing your point is is in fact disingenuous.

    Your actually totally re****ed.

    Everytime you take to a key board I will own you like the cheap ***** you are.

    Come back anytime kid.

    Joe wins with ease, as he did with a 7 year younger Hopkins, an keep in mind joe would of stopped bhop if it was not for the referee.

    Joe was very gifted boxer, much more so then kovalev. I like sergey, I think he going to rule for a while. Joe got ducked so much, it wasn't till Hopkins knew losing to him wouldn't matter as much, did he step foword, roy jones ducked him.

    Joe, wide UD, as the Hopkins fight should of been scored....

    when did joe come close to stopping hopman?

    he never hurt him for a second.

    the only person who came close to stoppage was 40something bhop flooring joe in round 1.

    never rewrite the facts.

    are you ready to reply now? or are you keen on grasping for meaningless insults for longer?

    when you reply, give us the % landed stats for joe against Kessler and reid, the two instances when joe stepped up, as youwere asked to do. I'd ask for Byron Mitchell too, but we all know we don't have those fight stats because the fight was cheatingly stopped seconds after joe was floored in round 1, so those stats are sadly meaningless.

    and then add Hopkins, the last instance of joe arguably stepping up (albeit to a 40something, usually a step down for most titlists, but sure with joe its a step up)

    Not only is Kovalev bigger , stronger and a massive puncher, he is also technically the better boxer.

    Hopkins in his full defensive glory got beaten from pillar to post. Calzaghe is no defensive master and fights guys square on slapping punches.

    Kovalev would surgically take him apart one sided. He beat nobody to favour him against Kovalev.
    The Hopkins fight could have went either way and Roy was shot 4 years before the fight with Joe even took place.

    Fascinatingly the polls are tied at 33.56% a piece

    It was always gonna be either a Kovalev ba KO or the Newbridge Assassin UD


    Kovalev vs Joe reminds me a lot of Kessler vs Joe - both big strong undefeated power punchers with a lot of skill, and beginning with the letter K

    (queue the anti-Zaggers establishment to put down Kessler)


    Kovalev's an extremely well schooled boxer. Calzaghe fought outside the book. There is no blueprint for that

    I didn't. I compared the hype surrounding Lacy to the hype surrounding Kovalev. I also said that I thought Joe would struggle with the best LHW, and he clearly didn't struggle with Lacy.

    Just once, I wish people would engage with what I've actually written rather than what they wish I'd written.

    what is the point of talking about making claims about hype, calculating for a joe C win?

    this is about a very different case. There is no one on joes resume that comes close to comparing with ko4clev.
