    I wanna ask ya,isnt it just sad that even with Both Calzaghes wins over Roy Jones and Bernard Hopkins{even though Bernard waz robbed and actually beat Joe and waz past his prime i have 2 add} he still will never be close to Legendary status like Bernard and Roy are in,Roy and Bernard are 2 of the greatest fighters of all time!! They are both Great Legends!!! Is Joe Calzaghe 1 of the greatest Legendary fighters of all time!!?? His Biast fans sure think so,but in reality......hes nowhere even close :nono

    FFS, another Calzaghe thread. If he's so bad, why so many threads? Who gives a ****, he's done.

    Just what ESB ordered.

    wow you actually think bhop won that fight you have obviously never boxed in any organized fashion before in your life, im a bmore native with some philly family so obviously i am huger bhop fan but im able to put my bias aside and watch that fight from a neutral perspective and calzaghe clearly won that fight, i had it 114 113 7 rounds to 5 for joe with bhop getting the one 2 point round howeever 115 112 joe would not be out of the question either, you cant win fights landing 3 punches a round, when your opponent is landing 25 to 30, i dont care if the most signifigant punch of most of the rounds was landed by bhop you cant get out hit by over 2 to 1 and out worked by over 2 to one and win a fight unless you knock the other guy out, if the bhop that showed up to fight pavlik showed up against calzaghe maybe were talking a different story or maybe calzaghe is to tricky and awkward of a fight er for bhop to ever be effective against, but to your other point hopkins is like a fine wine he has gotten better with age he was not past his prime he may not have the physical gifts he once had but is cagier and more intelligent as a boxer now than ever pavlik was his career best performance , and by the way calzaghe was no spring chx either, i think bhop ten years younger and joe ten years younger joe still outworks him to a competitve points victory, however i have to agree with you on rjj if him and joe had fought 8-10 years earlier rjj wins a competitive yet decisive ud, and rjj is clearly the greatest of those 3 but you could make a legit argument for calzaghe being neck and neck it terms of greatness with hopkins if not greater, he himself was a champion for over 11 years in 2 different weight classes with over 20 defenses and retired undefeated , i would say that there legacies are equivalent due to the head to head victory for calzaghe.
