I will keep posting this over and over you idiots... Calzaghe was an ATG and thats all there is to this topic. IF Hopkins would have stood and fought he would have got worn down and KO'ed but Hopkins tried to steal the fight and still got beat. Hopkins is an ATG and so is Calzaghe. When was Hopkins prime? when he was beating WW's? or Robert Allen or Joe Lipsey? No it was when he stepped up and fought bigger fighters. Calzaghe is the thorn in the flesh to a ton of yanks and I find it funny as hell. Bottom line? Calzaghe would have beat eveyone Hopkins fought and beat.
Ever noticed who starts these topics?, alts and trolls mostly and it's for an obvious reason. The fighters that get the most attention by far on this forum are the Klitschkos back when it mattered(when Calzaghe was busy defending his paper WBO title against unknown and un-ranked bums in Wales), Pacquiao and Mayweather. Hell even Amir Khan gets more attention than the Newbridge cabbie Assasin ever did.
Simple. Hagler had neither the power or strength to back Calzaghe up, and he couldn't possibly throw as many shots as Calzaghe either. Wide UD for the Taffy.
This thread starter is one of the biggest clowns on here he is actually 10 times worse than the average garden variety hater. Tries to act all fair and objective but his clear hate is painfully transparent and he is nowhere near as clever as he seems to think he is.
:rofl:deal This is one of the worst hammerings I've ever seen a troll take on here Correct me if I'm wrong but didn't Calzaghe sell out a 50'000 seat stadium for a fight, and take part in 2 PPV fights?
There are people saying he's better than Hagler. "Joe Calzaghe in retrospect" thread. First or second page.
lol calzaghe would have waited for Hagler to turn 40 to try and fight him. LOL. Hagler and the great 4 **** on everything and anything Calzaghe has done. Calzaghe will never crack the top 100.
The dude sold out an arena for a fight against Manfredo jr. In my opinion, that indicates nothing more than that the Welsh fans will pay to watch him fight bums, let alone spending the time to actually go and see it
