Pay your respects to Joe Calzaghe

One of the best fighters ever. Simple.

 

He's a great fighter and a future first ballot HOFer

 

One of the best fighters ever??? How can we know that? His last three fights include a relatively unproven, undefeated title holder and 2 fighters who had to resort to REALITY TV to resurge their mediocre boxing careers. Calzaghe very well could be one of the best ever.....I HIGHLY DOUBT IT, and there is absolutely no way to know until he faces real competition! Too bad he is getting up in age and the time to do that has passed him by....Sorry guys atsch

Now he's fighting washed up Woods, and the one elite he was calling out is Forty-****ing-three years old atsch Now he's talking about fighting Jones?????

 

Hes a good fighter, but its hard to put him at ATG staus with his resume not containing one great fighter on it.

 

Look man, maybe its not his fault. I'm not calling him a coward. But the fact remains he fought Peter ****ing Manfredo two fights ago. I don't give a **** what the excuse is, he hasn't fought the competition to comfortably rate him as great.......The Greatest Ever? Are you on Crack atsch :yikes

 

But nobody would say Kesslers a great fighter, thats all Im saying. He should of come to america a long time ago and fought Jones and Hopkins to prove he's as great as people say, if his place in history meant that much to him, I think he would of took the pay cut, instead he fought fighters most people never heard of and ran up a great record for himself.

I will be the first person to say Calzaghe is one hell of a fighter, but its hard to measure anyones greatness, when the fighter has never been tested by a great himself.

 

Calzaghe is now the #2 or #3 on most American p4p lists. What more do you expect?

 

Okay boys, calm down. Calzaghe has proven he's one of the best today.Does that automatically propell him into atg status? It is too soon to tell. But some pretty good fighters..Lacy and Kessler, were totally confused and beaten. Joe is deceptive. He's not flashy or overpowering. His talent seems to be, like Kessler says, "taking your boxing away". Being a tough son of a ***** helps his cause.He's tremendously cool under heavy pressure, and has pretty good whiskers. A few years from now his accomplishments can be viewed in a clearer perspective.But for now, he's a canidate for greatness, no doubt.

 

So if Cotto fought Williams, then the winner would be "great"??? No sorry. atsch

What happened when Margo Knocked the **** out of Cintron? Margo was viewed as great :deal
