This is the ultimate "scoreboard" for me. When the fighter himself acknowledges that he is avoiding challenges, his fans have no basis for pumping up his resume or acting like other fighters were ducking him. They try to speak for him, but he spoke very clearly for himself.
And didnt have them because he was so good, yet still beat undefeated Kessler which is Wards best win, so that really blows that comment out of the water, and beat Hopkins who is a world champ again Ward said the S6 winner should face Bute and then said Bute had to fight some other opponents first, so Bute agreed to fight Froch and then said that was just to build the fight Someone on here had to tell him and hes jumped on the band wagon So you hold Calzaghe to one article when he was 27, where it also said and ignore that in 00 he agreed to face Jones only for Jones to pull out http://www.highbeam.com/doc/1P2-19059682.html Jones said he was a SMW and wanted Calzaghe, it was agreed and Jones decided against it. Why forget that bit after? Then theres this http://www.thefreelibrary.com/BOXING:+CALZAGHE+CHASING+JONES+CLASH.-a091559984 and thats supplied by the same site where you got your link from So you rate Wards legacy of fighting Calzaghes leftovers Here Rudy look how you got pwned by me on this thread http://www.boxingforum24.com/showthread.php?t=238587 2-3 years ago you were owned and now it is being revealed
THe simple fact that Calzaghe himself states he didnt test himself says all I need to know...Dont give 2 shits about your bias opinion. And Ruslan still lost...he made a good account of himself but still lost...Dont see how thats being pwned you ****ing idiot!atsch
So you hold Calzaghe to one article when he was 27, where it also said and ignore that in 00 he agreed to face Jones only for Jones to pull out This content is protected Jones said he was a SMW and wanted Calzaghe, it was agreed and Jones decided against it. Why forget that bit after? Calzaghe agreed to face Jones, Ward wouldnt agree to face Bute atsch Then theres this This content is protected and thats supplied by the same site where you got your link from Here look at this and justify that give an answer This content is protected 6:45 in. "For 2 years Calzaghe has chased pound for pound number one Roy Jones, but to no avail". Click on where it says Youtube This content is protected Look at this in 2002 how Calzaghe was after Jones Former four-division champion Roy Jones Jr, speaking with The Sunday Times, responded to Joe Calzaghe's recent claim of chasing Jones for several years and being brushed aside. Calzaghe spoke with The Sunday Mirror and appeared to have some newfound hostility when Jones' name came up. This content is protected "Suddenly, I beat Hopkins in Vegas and Jones wants to be my neighbor - it's ridiculous. If a fight with Jones made sense from a cash point of view, then it could happen, but he is notorious for asking for too much money." Jones says that he viewed Calzaghe as a possible opponent several years ago, but at the time he saw no reason to travel to Wales to chase the fight. Now that Calzaghe is the bigger star, Jones is willing to make the fight anywhere. I saw Joe as a potential opponent a long time ago, Jones said. But I had my eyes on higher things, such as winning the heavyweight title, so it was nothing against Joe, I love everything about him. Hes a fun guy, an entertaining guy, a good person. We took some pictures together with his sons after the fight on Saturday and weve talked on the phone. But boxing is business. This content is protected You dont go to somebody else when youre the best, they must come to you, so I wouldnt take the risk, and why would I? This content is protected ? Why would I go to your country and give you a chance to allow the powers that be to take a close decision and give it to you?" Jones says a fight with Calzaghe is the best fight in boxing, even better than a possible rematch between Oscar De La Hoya and Floyd Mayweather Jr, scheduled for September. But right now this is the best fight out there, better than the Oscar De La Hoya-Floyd Mayweather rematch because we all know what the outcome of that fight is going to be another win for Floyd. You dont know the outcome of this fight, however, so its a fight people are going to want to see. Theres suspense, and thats what makes for a big fight," Jones says. Or this below 28:52 mark This content is protected Funny how you all didnt see this :good
Ricky Hatton had the pound for pound number one fighter in the World operating in the division above him, so he got on a plane to the States, moved up to his division, beat a champion to pick up a belt in that division and publicly called him out after fights. The fight of course then happened. Calzaghe had the pound for pound number one fighter in the World operating in the division above him, he initially stated that he didn't want to fight him, then a few years later makes some half-arsed reference to fighting Jones but still stayed at home in the division below where fought low ranked nobodies like Tocker Pudwill. Only later when Calzaghe had publicly stated that was Jones was shot did he pick up the courage to take the fight. Can you see the difference bailey?
So Rudy you now fall into denial. Whats your excuse for Ward saying the S6 winner should face Bute Yes Rudy you were pwned. You felt it would be a Bradley walk in the park and made comments, that now have come back to haunt you Lets look at some Heres the best one by you Rudy atsch Only Rudyard
Hatton didnt call out Mayweather, when asked after the Castillo fight he just made a comment about more action coming from him but didnt say anymore. You show me where Hatton called out Mayweather Go to 6:25 http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=VYd8lhxMWP8 Tell me where he called out Mayweather. Like he said I will leave it at that Rudy has been made a fool of again Yeah I just brought up Rudyards predictions Self pwnage at its best
Its where I have schooled so many C- posters that they try and come back and have another attempt at the ESB champ, only top lose by KO to one of ESBs finest :bbb:vonnecunt:toney:boxer
Do you really want to go there?? http://www.boxingforum24.com/showthread.php?t=295570 http://http://www.boxingforum24.com/showthread.php?t=404570 And like everybody else...I can admit I didnt think highy of Ruslan...He made a good account of himself but stop acting like you've got some valid point...He still lost so I seriously could a damn about what you or your butt buddies have to say! People in glass houses should throw stones.
If Calzaghe was serious about fighting Jones then why didn't he even move up to Jone's weight division?
