Calzaghe - Does anyone believe that Calzaghe pursued the biggest fights...

His resume is weak when he was in his prime, yes. And yes, Joe is to blame to a certain extent for that.

 

Corona is a Joe fan in disguise

 

Like who ?

Eric Lucas ? Manny Siaca ?

Please.

Fights with Hopkins/RJJ/Toney were NEVER an option. He wasnt even in the same division as any of them at the same time for a start. He wasnt a big name then, so why would they fight him ?

Ottke and Beyer would NEVER fight him so that just leaves people like Lucas/Siaca/Girard etc... who he would have had no problems at all with.

So tell me, what "unified champions and ATG's" as you put it should he have fought ? Because fights with RJJ and HOpkins were never an option

 

ffs

 

You really think its that simple?atsch Many fighters simply ducked Joe during those years. He tried very hard to get Ottke in the ring...but the German joke wanted none of it. So he had to beat up varies former champs to gradually build his profile.

 

How many hall of famers has Hopkins beat?? Calzaghe is better than Trinidad ever was, Hopkins lost to Roy Jones and knocked out De La Hoya who was far too small to be in the ring with him..........who in his list of 20 middleweight defenses are so much better than Joe's??

 

I've anwered your question but I don't know what else you're after. What is your point?

 

Even I'm bored of this topic, so I can't really be bothered

I'm convinced you drink your bed time cocoa from a Joe Calzaghe undisputed SMW Champ mug though, you talk about him way too much for somebody that isn't a fan

 

obsessed much?

 

Corona, answer to my reply then ?
