You're missing the point, hater. You mentioned slapping. That was the point of my response to you. Doesn' matter who you're boxing, if you dispose of your first 22 opponents in 54 rounds, them slaps be stingin'
Calzaghe had much better power early on, it was the fact that he had continual problems with his hands that he had to adapt in order to maintain longevity in the sport. Even RJJ said that those slaps hit much harder than he thought they would. So he can hit harder when he chooses, but he has been successful without using pure power, so why change?

He had to change because he is a shot fighter by his standards, imagine what a prime Calzaghe would carry on doing to these Ameribums!
What a terrible post, Manfredo was staggering and stunned, with a dazed look on his glazed over eyes, he was lucky it was stopped, if Joe hadn't pounded him to keep him standing, and the ropes werent there, Manfredo was a heap on the floor. Dawson couldn't legitimately beat Johnson, what chance does he stand against a busier, smarter, faster, granite chinned Ameribum disposing machine? Calzaghe would leave his face like RJJ looked after his recent fight, or he may even do a DLH and punk out on his stool.
England only ended the slave trade, with the USA, because it was no longer profitable, and no longer needed due to the industrial revolution. Slavery was only bringing in 5% revenue to the British empire. however, when the cotton supplied dried up when the North blockaded the south, the british nearly joined the war on the side of the confederacy. In the end, its always about money. :rofl:rofl:rofl The british put Ireland in a state of poverty that would last hundreds of years. India was one of the richest regions in the world, Britain robbed its wealth to the point it suffered a catastrophic famine every decade. Hell lets not even get into how you ****ed up Africa. The British took steel pliers to Barack Obama's grandfathers testicals. Rofl. A glider, is not powered flight. Alexander Graham Bell did most of his work in Canada and the USA. Doesnt matter, every one knows Elisha Grey invented the phone first. All Lee did was invent an application, like Email. The internet was invented by the United States military, and the first email was sent by students at Stanford. The first computer was built in Germany. The Zues 3. Charles Babbage merely designed the first programmable computer on paper, but never built it do to a myriad of reasons. Complete nonsense. 17 of the top 20 Universities in the world are American. :rofl 2 Americans Vladimir Kosma Zworykin and Philo Taylor. Eh. American inventors made them practical and able to actually be used in every day life. William Potts. American. Ooooo. How magnificent. Certainly blows out meaningless things like the space shuttle, GPS, Internet, powered flight, artificial heart, Laser, personal computer, microchip, ipod ect ect. I mean yeah you did some stuff like 100 years ago. But what are you now? Our slaves. Your army? Just a division in our military. Seriously, compared to our awesomeness? You're little higher then Belgium. :hi:
The comments regarding slavery, robbing of wealth is pitiful, we all know the empire did more good than bad, and you act like America are going around like knights in shining armour now! they're doing far worse than we ever did, with little contributions. Education, well look at the level of people in America, that proves more than so called '' reviews'' where the best Uni's are. No one said anything about powered flight... however, without Cayleys invention, there would be no flight at all! it was the foundation, infact, your little argument about Berners Lee, could be used here, powered flight is a mere application.... oh and it was Pearse anyway who did teh first powered flight, and he wasnt American Babbage invented the first real computer, and built it, however ran out of funding and could do no more, if you want to get very technical, the first real computer, by todays definition was theENIAC also invented by Turring, who was English, ( where would all these Artificial hearts, space shuttles etc be without these foundations?) Sorry Baird didn't invent teh TV now? despite broadcating the first motion pictures? sigh As Swann did more work than Eddison, and he was again English, you can't even say that! but the first lightbulb was invented by Humprhey Davy. Potts? try J P Knight the very first inventor. Sorry studying somehwere, and living somewhere makes someone American now? this from the same guy that claimed Cortez had nothing to do with America?.... well regardless of this massive flaw, there is no proof, and even acknowledgement by Grey that Bell invented the phone, and being born, and educated in Britain, means he is British. Or if I move my butler into teh Stables to live, does that make him become a horse because of his location? So as you can see, everything stems from Britain, plus teh inventions you do lay claim to, can be taken away from the fact it is usually European bloodlines, I don't see many Native Americans doing much. Oh, why do we always have to dig you out of trouble if America is so great? look what those dozen Village farmers armed with an orange peel in Vietnam did to your mighty army! At least we're making the most ground kills in Afghan too, well, if we don't count the amount of friendlies you lot keep killing!
We are your future,all empires come to an end,look at Italy now,in the coming years China and India will be major world powers and America will also have to act in a more docile way and suck up to them.
Hardly, America is nearly at it's knees now, they have shown how weak they are in Iraq and Afghan, there is no intimidation factor anymore, even Russia are shoving the USA around now. Our Empire was sacraficed for teh good of the world, at least we bought our own Empire down. China yes, and hopefully India and Pakistan will wipe each other out, you do overlook Russia though.
Nonsene. There was a study done which estimated the GDP's of past countries. Most of the worlds wealth during the 10th-15th centuries were concentrated in Africa, India and China. The wealth began to shift with European colonization, especially in British colonized area's like India. They were left poor and distitute. India had a famine every decade that killed millions. Whens the last time India has had a famine on that scale since the British left? And as for Africa, let me take 10,000,000 of Britains strongest males and see if there is not a demographic catastrophe. Not only that the wars that ravaged Africa to aquire these slaves. Europe took 1,000 years to come out of the dark ages. I mean tell me how the British empire benefited China by forcing them to buy Opium. Britains, worlds first drug pushers. Never said that. However, there is more moral viability today then in the 19th century. What do you mean? Americans get all the nobel prizes every year. Since 1990 i believe the ratio of American nobel prizes to British is something like 90-10. Not only that, but the best European scientists come here. Nonsense. Da Vinci was diagraming flight 500 years prior. Nope. The analytical engine was never built. He had the right idea, but never was able to build it. ENIAC was funded by the US military and designed by some guys at the university of pennsylvania. What are you talking about lol? Nope. The inventors of what would lead to the modern tv were the guys I listed,. Marconi invented wireless telegraphy in 1897. Swann invented a viable light bulb like Edison? Got a source for that? The guys you listed were able to power their light bulbs for little more then minutes at a time. Edison gave light to the world with his work. JP kNight merely took the train signals that had been in use at the time and put them on the street. The modern traffic light we use today. Potts did that. Started his telephone company in America, died in Canada. Nothing really British about him except his blood. I guess you can take credit for that. But as i said, he did his work in North America. Tons of proof. The only issue is who filed the patent first. Most say Grey did. Rofl. 70% of Americans are of European blood. Only around 2% Native American. But if you wanna get into music African Americans did that. Infact most British bands like Led Zepplin and the Beatles merely ripped off black American musicians, lyrics, instrumentals everything. Again showing your obvious lacking of knowledge in History. The North Vietnamese army was being led by nearyl 50,000 Chinese and Russian advisors. Had tanks, aircraft and missile defense systems imported from Russia. Had a troops who were battle hardened to warfare from fighting the Chinese, French and Japanese. And still if you look at the casualty figures, the NVA barely survived by the skin of its teeth. Giap admits to losing 500,000 soldiers during the war. The NVA won a political victory not a military one. Not like at Yorktown where the continental army which had just been assembled barely 6 years prior had the British army on its knees signing treaties to get the **** out. :bbb
Ok, firstly, I got mixed up with the computer, I meant the COLOSSUS, Turring invented, teh first computer by todays definition. Babbage did build teh contraption incidently, but as you say Da Vinci was diagraming Flight, so whats teh difference? Cayley constructed the first plane, Da Vinci Drew it, still no American to be found. J P Knight, invented the very first signals, and tehy went up in London, noweher else in teh world had done this, and Potts did it years later. Swann worked with Eddison, and was widely credited for the invention of the flint that made lightbulbs last longer... however Eddison being the savvy buisnessman, used the patent and took the fame. Again, Bell was BORN in Britain, Studied and educated in Britain, a fair fact that his mind was educated by British constitutions therefore made him the man he was wouldn't you say? Regardless of where he ended up, records also state he filed first. What are you talking about modern TV? Baird invented the TV plain and simple, you claim about wireless, stating this for what reason? yes ignore teh fact that Baird broadcasted the first motion picture in the world.... sigh Why are you talking music? if teh Black people you claim were ripped off, shows how inept they were they they couldnt get themselves marketted, or maybe the British bands were actually just better. Sorry showing my historical ignorance? the same guy who claimed American farmers beat teh British Empire in 1776... despite it being British settlers aided by 2 world super powers? after the British army were at an all time low in personel, and moral due to the long costly war with France over Canada?... puhlease... and sorry Vietnam won the war, when you go there with a purpose, and you don't achieve that, it means you lost, regardless of what you claim, America lost their second major war, the other of course being against Britain. Continetal army, full of battle hardened French and Spanish troops, including British battle hardened troops? LOL, yes their assembly 6yrs before hand was a real problem... sigh. Britian also did what an empire had to do, yes we made money, yes we did horribel things, there isnt a country in this world that doesnt have blood on its hands, we're also talking a long time ago, so what is uncivilised to us now, wasn't then, it also led us to what we believe now, and these countries you talk about, they're still butchering their own people and acting like barbarians, so just be thankful it wasn't their Empire, or we'd still be in teh dark ages.
It was the 2 world wars that killed our empire even tho we won both,and the cost of paying back the Americans.Couldn't believe it when it was on the news a couple of years ago that we had only just finished paying back all the interest for the WWII loans,what a **** take. I dont see Russia as a super power again,think the idea is they will just become part of Europe.Russia is such a strange country its hard to know whats going to happen with them tho.
Well it is America's fault. American racism at the time. elvis stole his style and music from black entertainers and popularized it to white kids who couldnt get access to the music. Brits did the same thing. Look up Led Zepplins songs, most were taken from black sources. Rock and Roll was a term popularized in the black community. Please. The French and Canadian war was nearly a decade earlier. The Spanish and French only really supplied the US army with money and arms. The French only fought one land battle during the war before Yorktown, and that was fought by French owned Haitian slaves. The Spanish really didnt do anything but take British outposts in Florida while the Brits were distracted. Most of the land battles were won by America. The battle of Saratoga where America captured half of the British northern Army, was fought before the entry of France. Nonsense. If there were French and Spanish in the US military, they were their as advisors and trainers like Lafayette. Britian didnt bring the world out of the dark ages. Islamic scholars did that. Europe just nicked most of the inventions of the time from the middle east.
