Calzaghe The Greatest Fighter Of The Last 25 Years!

I do

But it doesn't stop us from seeing the truth when we are not playing together, unlike your undieing love for Taylor and Pavlik :hi:

 

I am still waiting on you to answer this point, and back up what you are saying about Hopkins resume v Calzaghe's:

Hopkins...
stopped Glen Johnson. No mean feat. Calzaghe **** out of the fight with the guy, and that's a fact even Calzaghe fans don't deny.

Hopkins...
became the 1st man to beat Felix Trinidad (40-0). DLH did not cope well at middleweight, Trinidad could and did.

Hopkins...
jumped 2 weight divisions at age 40+ and dominated the linear LHW champion Antonio Tarver- another underrated achievement. Superb.

Hopkins...
became the 1st man in 8 years to defeat the "best defence in boxing" and fellow top 5 P4Per Winky Wright



Give me four wins from Calzaghe's resume to match those four then, and please note how many of them have been in the top 5 p4p and have been under 40 ****ing years old (Hopkins has two- Trinidad and Wright, and linear LHW champion Tarver was in or around p4p top 10 when they fought).

 

NO.

Calzaghe last 2.5 years: 5 fights, 5 wins, 1 stoppage

UD12 Jeff Lacy
(very good performance v decent short-term alphabet champ)

UD12 Sakio Bika
(ok performance v decent challenger)

TKO3 Peter Manfredo Jr
(a joke.)

UD12 Mikkel Kessler
(career-best performance v very good short-term alphabet champ)

SD12 Bernard Hopkins
(unimpressive performance by Calzaghe. Edged a split decision on workrate alone)




Pacquiao last 2.5 years: 7 fights, 7 wins, 4 stoppages

TKO10 Erik Morales
(rematch with the man who beat him. Became 1st man to stop HOFer Erik Morales

UD12 Oscar Larios
(equates with Calzaghe-Bika, ok performance v decent challenger)

KO3 Erik Morales
(wins series 2-1 by stopping Morales again. For the first time, Morales doesn't look like his old self though)

KO8 Jorge Solis
(ok performance v decent challenger)

UD12 Marco Antonio Barrera
(beats HOFer Barrera for the 2nd time with easy points win)

SD12 Juan Manuel Marquez
(edges a tight decision over the #3 p4p fighter in a brilliant fight)

TKO9 David Diaz
(wins world title at 4th weight with a masterclass and brilliant KO finish)





Pacquiao has clearly been better over the last 2.5 years- that's why he's #1 and Calzaghe is #2 atsch

DON'T say Morales & Barrera were washed-up - Hopkins??
(Morales was anything but washed-up in his 2nd fight with Pac, and Barrera had floored JMM and pushed him all the way in his previous fight - there is NO WAY Morales at 29-30 and Barrera at 33 were any more washed-up than a 43-yr-old man)

DON'T say the Marquez decision was controversial - Hopkins?? SD.
(and even then, Pac was amazing to have such a close fight with JMM, who is in great condition and is the #3 p4p. It was clear in the last rounds v Joe Cal, Hopkins no longer had the stamina to fight 12 rounds)


Juan Manuel Marquez and Erik Morales are a ****ing damn sight better opposition than Jeff Lacy or Mikkel Kessler, and Pac never fought a Manfredo in this period.

It's PACQUIAO.

 

No just one of your sister. :hi:

 

In terms of achievement, Calzaghe has definitely been the best at 168. H2H at 168, it is obviously RJJ. Depends which way you look at it.

 

Easily better than that p*ssy Hopkins. Feigning being fouled by Calzaghe was pathetic. JC is numero uno!!
