10 or 11 world champions? You mean 10 or 11 WBO bull**** champions??? He never beat an undisputed or universally recognized champion...He beat guys like Brewer, who was all done when he fought Calzaghe, and was knocked out by Echols, who was dismantled by Hopkins.... Brewer is not a WORLD CHAMPION. Nobody views him as such. He won a belt, nothing more, nothing less. Lacy is all hype, and Kessler is unproven. Kessler has fought a bunch of bums too. No great fighter was deemed great without beating GREAT fighters. Calzaghe beat some good fighters, NO HOFers, NO UNDISPUTED CHAMPIONS, NO GREATS!
Youre doing it againatsch ;a fighter is substandard just because hes European?Do you realize how idiotic you sound with this bizarre boxing 'logic?':nut Who cares about jabs, hooks,speed,power etc?No,which side of the Ocean he was born on is the deciding factor for some strange people.:-(
No at all...I don't think that...but the fighters that CALZAGHE FOUGHT were not great fighters. Not because they were European, just in general. Sorry to tell you that. Charles Brewers was not a HOF-caliber fighter. Calzaghe has not beaten any HOFers, UNDISPUTED WORLD CHAMPIONS, RECOGNIZED TOP 10 P4P FIGHTERS, etc... That's the point. Lacy is American, he's not a great fighter either...I'm not anti-Europe dude, I'm anti-bull****.
I noticed that too. He doesn't really seem to be trying to sell the fight or anything, it looks like he's genuinely happy just popping up in the background. Like Where's Waldo, only slimier.
Quite the opposite I'm sorry to tell you. Eubank's is from the American Gyms he beat a bunch of you Americans, he beat Nigel Benn, he beat Rochigianni - but he couldn't get past Calzaghe.
WOW, and Calzaghe caught him right at the end of his career....and at his peak, Eubank wasn't an undisputed world champion, or a multi-divisonal champion. He was a WBO titlist... Calzaghe has not beaten any HOFers, UNDISPUTED WORLD CHAMPIONS, RECOGNIZED TOP 10 P4P FIGHTERS, etc...
I said Lacy was a bum long before the fight. I LIKE JOE CALZAGHE. I THINK HE IS A VERY GOOD FIGHTER... But the fact remains: Calzaghe has not beaten any HOFers, UNDISPUTED WORLD CHAMPIONS, RECOGNIZED TOP 10 P4P FIGHTERS, etc... AND THERE IS NOTHING YOU CAN SAY TO CHANGE THAT!
Dude. How many of your 1129 threads are dedicated to ripping European/British Boxing? Do you have a life other than gunning our fighters. The intelligent Americans boxing fans must be put off when supporting their fellow country men when they notice people like you co-exist with them.
Thanks for the correction haha. Calzaghe has not FOUGHT any HOFers, UNDISPUTED WORLD CHAMPIONS, RECOGNIZED TOP 10 P4P FIGHTERS, etc... THAT ISN'T ANTI-EUROPE. LENNOX LEWIS FOUGHT THE BEST. JOE DID NOT!
Name the HOF on Hopkin's record. Calzaghe is an undisputed belt holder it's hardly is fault there are no decent Americans at SMW.
