Hey ESB,

I noticed there has been a lot of talk about the one and only Joe Calzaghe lately, so I decided I should share my story.

Some time ago I was a professional boxer. My career arc was typical of a decent boxer; I had an early streak but lost and was never able to regain a lot of momentum. I never made it to the elite level, so I became a "stepping stone" for upcoming prospects.

Time went on and my career and life were going nowhere. I was being beaten up by younger, stronger guys, just to pay my bills. My wife left me, and my debts were mounting. My life was spiraling out of control until one day my promoter called me up.

"How would you like to fight for the belt?" he said. I was utterly shocked. I had no idea, given my career arc, that I was in a position to challenge for THE belt. He later told me it was actually just the WBO belt, but still I knew I would be making a record pay day.

The fight was set. I was to face Joe Calzaghe! This was the chance of a lifetime. Before the fight Joe came up to me and said "so you're the second best in the world, huh". This puzzled me as even I didn't believe that, but I rolled with it anyway.

The fight was bizarre. Joe threw a lot of these "slapping" punches. After a few rounds he threw what must've been 20 "slap punches" in a row. I honestly couldn't feel them but it must've looked like I was in danger so the referee stopped the fight. I was used to getting beat on by hard hitting prospects, so this was an easy way to make my money. I have kids and would like to be there for them mentally; fighting Joe was the best move I could've made.

I used the money from the fight to start a business and have never looked back. THANK YOU, Joe Calzaghe, for saving my life.

Foxy,

There are a number of reasons why Joe Calzaghe is ESB's least favourite son.

All roads hardly ever lead to Calzaghe, hardly any major victory ever leads back to Joe, he is the bottom of the ESB food chain, (much like the Team re**** Corporation) he was 46-0 and there was always a blueprint on how to beat him. But silly billy patients who are strapped to their beds for 23 hours a day, are always going to love him.

It's clear that the majority of Calzaghe lovers on ESB, clearly never saw Roy or Toney fight in their prime, ( with the help of steroids ) and only started watching boxing in 2006. Since Joe's victory over Lacy, his fans have lost touch with reality and they believe he was better than Ray Robinson and Muhammad Ali, because he never lost. A typical fan would believe that Joe could in fact have beaten Godzilla, because he could adapt to any style, and he had a fantastic engine, which would have allowed him to slap Godzilla down to size, with over 1000 slaps per round.

When Hopkins and Jones ( with the help of steroids ) were unifying at 160 and 175, Joe was fighting in one of the weakest divisions in boxing.

While the likes of Jones, Hopkins and Toney ( with the help of steroids ) were clowning fighters such as Tito, Ruiz and Jirov, Joe was fighting Veit, Ashira, and Sobot.

While the likes of Jones, Hopkins and Toney ( with the help of steroids ) were testing themselves against good fighters, Joe was laying on the canvas after a knockdown by Sugar Ray Salem, and struggling with Robin Reid.

When the likes of Jones, Hopkins and Toney ( with the help of steroids ) were relaxing on their lawn chairs after a hard days training, Joe was sprinting out of his door at that count of 2, after he'd realised that the mailman had dropped off his new passport that his Mum had ordered him.

While the likes of Jones, Hopkins and Toney ( with the help of steroids ) were trash talking and creating excitement fighting other great fighters, Joe was washing Frank W's car for a bit of extra pocket money, until a huge WBO fight got made.

Hopkins couldn't draw flies to sh&t without a "name" opponent.

When Jones, Hopkins and Toney ( with the help of steroids ) were fighting other good fighters in their own Country, Joe was pretending to find his his lost passport, even though he'd thrown it away.

When the dust had settled at 175, and Hopkins had lost twice to Taylor, and was43,

How the fvck do you think he got to Germany, and Denmark before he despatched those to over hyped pieces of sh&t in America then? Walked?

and finally decided to move up in weight, even though he'd been starving himself to make 168 for 4 years. Even though his own Father thought that he'd lost, and he s****ed the win by the skin of his teeth, he proclaimed himself as "The legend Killer" then made it clear that he didn't do rematches.

Winning by 116 - 111, and 115 - 112 on two cards is NOT s****ing a win by the skin of your teeth, particularly when all the judges were Muricans in Murica.

When Roy was 9 weeks from being 40, and it was more than 4 years after Tarver and Johnson had knocked him out,

Who were both OLDER than Roid.

Joe finally had the ***** to fight the man he'd hid from all of his career, and who he'd dismissed twice leading up to the fight. Even though many experts had Joe to win, due to the fact that Roy hadn't won at elite level for 5 years, Joe thought he was actually in the ring with the 1994 James Toney version of Roy.

Subjective opinion. No objectivity in this sentence whatsoever. There is a difference as you see above, and indeed below, where I have added in brackets (with the help of steroids ) due to the FACT that both Jones and Toney, have tested positive. That is an example of objectivity.

While Jones and Toney ( with the help of steroids ) continue to fight like the proud warriors that they are, Joe dances badly on tv and sniffs lines of coke.

Lets's be honest, there's nothing much to love. His ugly slapping style, his reluctance to fight the best,

46 - 0 would seem to indicate it worked quite well.

his reluctance to leave Frank, his fruitcake fans trying to convince people he'd have troubled a prime Roy, even though he struggled with Reid.

Would that be the same Reid who was NEVER KTFO, and TKO'd when was 41, as opposed to back to back stoppages by guys older than him?

More subjectivity I'm afraid. You have no idea whether or not there is a looney bin in Newbridge, and you certainly do not know whether the patients ( if there is indeed one there ) love Calzaghe or not.

However. I've fixed it for ya.

:good

You know that I was only joking.

I just wanted to troll like Head had done.

I set my post out to be the mirror image of his, but obviously from a negative view point.

Joe was a great fighter.

I've given him a lot of stick on here for a few reasons, but I've always acknowledged hid abilities.

In fairness Loudon is a gentleman, if a good bit misguided where Roid Jones is concerned. However before he is finished he will learn the difference between subjectivity, and objectivity. Hehehehe.

Maybe he knows Froch who trains in Sheffield and also dislikes Joe. Clinton Mitchell was from there two- maybe Clinton was jealous of Joe's success and Clinton and Loundon go boozing together at Spearmint Rhino in Sheffield?

Loundon! Has Froch or Mitchell been in your ear telling you porkies about Joe? :nono

EDIT: Actually, I just realised I'm from Lancashire and love it when Amir Khan gets beat

Ha!

My thread was just in response to Head's.

The only dislike I have towards Joe, is that he always played the victim of circumstance card. But other than that, I have no problem with him. I was actually a fan for the first half of his career.

LOUDON....

All 100% true
I love how they claim BHOP ducked joe

all the other guys fought the best , and joe continued not to
always had a reason too

I also remember him on sky saying he was afraid of flying as well

I would never have made such a crazy post, if HeadBanger hadn't.

Joe was a great fighter, but his ambition never matched his skills.

He was the polar opposite to Ricky Hatton.

IntentionalButt · Jun 24, 2013

That was seven years ago.

He was inducted last year into the I.B.H.O.F.

His career is decidedly over, and has been for the better part of a decade.

Threads about him, going forward, belong in the Classic forum.

Any legitimate threads about him (for instance, h2h fantasy match-ups) will be moved there accordingly.

Purely trolling - either pro-Joe or anti-Joe - ones are going to be merged here to die.

IntentionalButt · Feb 8, 2015

Everybody check out the OP.

(this was a 30-thread merge, by the way - thirty, in under two years, all threads made strictly for the purposes of trolling, about someone that retired prior to Barack Obama being sworn in as commander in chief :-()
