Better fighter: Usyk or Calzaghe

For real...

 

Usyk, but calzaghe punked both hopkins and roid jones in their backyard. Made hopkins cry .

 

he actually did

 

just a reminder

he was unique, you'll not see his like again

 

I’ll go with Calzaghe. If Usyk and Calzaghe were at the same weight I’m confident Calzaghes awkward style would best Usyks more classic boxing style.

 

lets be honest, a can of soda lobbed from an over zealous crowd member woulda flattened roy

I have it on good authority that Roy, having read your post about a 50% Gassiev hook, literally fell over like a fainting goat!

 

He didn't, very close fight but Usyk won just about.
Actually Hopkins has more of an argument over Calzaghe than Briedis over Usyk

 

Calzaghe was very very good but was dropped by both B-Hop and RJJ when they were way beyond their best years.

Once you could put down as a lapse, twice then it show’s a clear issue.

If he has fought outside of the UK when it mattered, he would certainly have losses.

Usyk is a level above, he just seems to find any way to win. Not just one way to win like Joe.

 

They didn’t need to, they had enough big fights to make in USA

 

That arrogance is why Europeans in boxing surpass the US now .. just because they have success in the States doesn't mean they can't challenge themselves abroad.. all other nations do it.. Hopkins didn't because he probably knew his antics would start a Riot in other countries and he'd be disqualified in half his bouts

 

Hopkins fought the same 2 guys 5 different times. Doesn’t seem like he had enough big fights at all. Why again do non American fighters need to travel?

 

Mundine would have lit Joe up like a Xmas tree IMO.
