    46 tried, 46 failed. That makes it 46-0 ! Froch would’ve made it 47-0 100%, He alludes to it himself which I’m surprised at

    I know this isn't terribly original of me, but I pick zaggers.

    Agree. Nice bookends to your SMW career. I don't buy that Eubank was shot… How are you shot at 29? Steve Collins had to put in the performance of his life to edge him out… & he went on to beat the **** of CW champion Carl Thompson too, in a fight he probably should have got the nod in… Joe pretty won nearly every round against him. Was Eubank peak? No. But he still had the engine, power & know how to give anyone a fight. People forget that Eubank was inconsistent throughout his entire career, there are numerous fights that he was lacklustre in or was even lucky to get the nod in… he would look brilliant one minute & so so the next so it's actually no surprise that his fights at the end of his career went the same way too.. and saying all that I'd still pick the Eubank Joe fought to beat the **** out of any of these opponents the top dogs are fighting today.

    I think Calzaghe gets slightly overrated these days but Froch has nothing for him. Calzaghe by a landslide

    and yet the fighter you're talking about didn't fight the top dogs of his day.

    eubank probably wasnt shot, just werent allowed to counter and take rests like he always used to in fights, faking faints and so on.

    he did...whem hopkins was in his mid 40's and jones when he was getting KO'd by everyone under the sun.
    do you think it's a coincidence that calzaghe overcame his 'fear of flying' at the same time jones and hopkins lost their aura of invulnerability and were ripe for the picking?

    because nobody knew joe in the states.
    collins called out roy jones when he was fighting in britain..and nothing happened.
    DM put an advert in a newspaper to fight jones...and nothing happened.

    what happened when joe cut ties with warren and went to the states?

    You mean the same Hopkins who beat Pavlik, Pascal, Cloud? For the record, I don’t remember a ban on flights leaving the United States. Hopkins and Jones sure weren’t rushing to fight Calzaghe anywhere.

    So as predicted, you ducked the question lol
    We both knew that would happen

    In answer to your question, what happened was a shot bloated Calzaghe at the end of his career beat R Jones


    Now back to my question you ducked
    Copy and paste below

    Now you say Calzaghe didn't fight a top fighter in their prime, so please tell me which top SMWs you think he should have faced besides Ottke, who's trainer said Sven wasn't interested, so tell me all the top prime SMWs that you think he should have fought

    Wait for it. Aussie will come out with another classic post whilst ducking the question
