atsch Bailey, theThe boxrec bandit...once again talking **** about fighters and fights he has never even seen...thinking he's debating again...
The thread topic is; Joe "Slappy White" Calzaghe Versus Vassily Jirove, SO how the Hell did the conversation turn to ATG MW James Toney? :huh Oh, I see. It's that brain damaged, no boxing knowledge, less-than-A-Spectator, Beetle Baily, yet again. I swear if that boy don't remind me of Gilligan from Gilligan's Island.
Show me a fight where Calzaghe throws proper and manly punches and I'll show you your Mamma's Hairy ass crack. :yep
vs Toney he averaged 86 ppr and threw 1032 punches vs Castro he threw 944 punches vs Washington (10 rds) he threw 740 punches and 440 power punches, averaging 44 power punches a round....... - going into the Toney fight he was 31-0 (27 KO's) with a 87% KO ratio - Jirov broke the 400 mark in landed punches vs Castro with 433 punches landed. It's only been done 25 times in compubox history and is something Calzaghe never has..... [url]http://compuboxonline.com/recordbook.php[/url] He didn't throw 1000 punches in many fights for the simple reason that only 6 of his 38 fights went the distance
Toney was most likely on steroids to be honest i really cannot put too much stock in his career cruiser and up personally. :deal being said jirov was a great cruiser and a bad heavy.
Yeah i suspect the steroids too. Jirov planned on fighting at HW right out of the amateurs. He was going to just fight a couple at CW (190) while he was bulking up but ended up staying. Jirov at HW in 2003 vs Mesi was already pretty shot in large part due to the Toney fight. It would have been interesting if he stepped up at HW around 2001/2002. He may have even been able to get a belt since guys like Holyfield, Rahman, Ruiz, Byrd were belt holders from 2002-2004.
jirov has to drop 20-30lbs & you reckon he'd be competitive do you? atsch he'd be a ****ing skeleton. how about; "sonny liston vs manny pacquiao at welterweight; who wins?" **** thread. just ****ing ******ed. why are ****ers dignifying this ****? :-(
At 175 if he isnt drained Jirov would be too big and put too much pressure on Joe Slapsalot. He can keep the same pace as Calzaghe but his punches back more power. Jirov also had a good jab and could box so if he could change gears on Joe. The only advantages Joe has in this fight is speed and movement and Jirov was no Lacy though when it came to foot work he could get on his toes and box when he wanted to. Styles make fights Jirov close UD. At Cruiser he prob wears Joe down and stops him late I dont see Calzaghe carrying the weight well to fight at 190 or 200.
