Calzaghe Fans ---> Cry Me a River!

1. you where predicting a jones KO.
2. you where saying hopkins was an old man and calzaghe should fight pavlik instead....hmmm
3. tarver????
4. dawson will get exposed
5. stop hateing just cause calzaghe beat all you're superstars
6. calzaghe has the american respect apart from a few idiots = YOU

 

can't believe a guy who said jones would win has the nerve to post this ****. just makes you look silly . dawg .

 

I dont think Calzaghe cares what Americans or anyone else thinks about his legacy, I think he just points out the truth, that there is no pleasing some people no matter what.

Mark my words, if Joe fights & beats Dawson, then Chad will have been `never that great to begin with` blah blah blah.

 

But the problem is one of the most boring fighters to watch of the last 20 years is Bernard Hopkins and yet he`s revered by American fans,the same guys who try to denegrate Calzaghe at every turn,why is there this apparent discrepancy???? Let`s think about it for a few nano seconds...........that`s right I remember now!!!! He`s from the good old US of A!!!! I swear if Joe gets USA tattooed on his arse he`ll beat Obama in 4 years time!

 

He fought Roy Jones Jnr because he had unfinished business with him !
Recent posts on here tell the story of how Roy Jones declined to fight Calzaghe in 2001, Roy Jones asked Chris Eubank should he fight Calzaghe and was told, Calzaghe is too much of a risk for you to fight.

 

It's all a load of brit hating nonesense. Even if Jones did get knocked out twice and then beaten again by tarver, he was still competitive in those fights. Whereas Calzaghe handed his arse to him. All that stuff about the knockdown is nonesense too, the last thing to leave a boxer they say, is his punch. Calzaghe is in truth an exceptional boxer and should be remembered for his exciting style and come forward attitude not hated for poor management.

 

Excellent post. Im surprised Pavlik isnt on that list of fighters he didnt wanna fight either, because before Hops beat him, that was the fight everyone wanted, Pavlik vs Calzaghe, but slappy made it clear he wanted no part of Pavlik, instead he wanted an obviously faded roy jones. Although, I do give Joe lots of credit for beating Kessler

 

"Nobody takes calzaghe serious! Im cereal! Im trying to spreal Calzaghe awareness but nobody is taking me cereal when im really super cereal!" :| :|

 

Deja Vu

 

Couldn't agree more. People keep going on about no matter what he does he doesn't get the credit he deserves - he doesn't ****ing deserve it til he has put together a strong resume! Dining out on the back of 3 wins - Lacy, Kessler, and a controversial decision over Hopkins - can only last so long. He needs big fights to cement his legacy, as history will not remember Lacy or Kessler very kindly IMO.

He can get credit when he's earned it, not for fighting 3 good opponents in 11 years as a world champion then slapping around the corpse of Roy Jones for a sack of cash.
