    What do you think, ESB?

    Was Joe "KO Specialist" Calzaghe better than Marvelous Marvin Hagler?

    A question for the ages no doubt. While we're at it, let's discuss who the most absurdly deluded fan base is on ESB.

    There's about 7 Calzaghe threads been started on here these last few days all of which created by haters or posters who don't like him.

    I thought no one gave a crap about him?

    Weird spastics the lot of you.

    There's a sizeable contingent on ESB who give a crap about him. They also say he's better overall than Hagler. Hmmm

    1. I'm not stupid.

    2. You are.

    3. You're not remotely funny.

    4. Your troll skills are embarrassingly poor.

    5. You're going to have to come a lot better than that.

    Calzaghe was extremely talented, although Hagler is one of my favorite middleweights, he would have been outboxed by Calzaghe. Calzaghe is and was extremely underrated.............and don't forget, Calzaghe fought at 168 and 175..............

    No one was saying he's better than Hagler you spacker

    But he's bigger, and a hell of a fighter himself

    The extra size would make it interesting

    Joe is the greater:

    Hagler lost to SR Leonard...
    who lost to Hector Camacho
    who lost to Oscar De La Hoya
    who lost to Bernard Hopkins
    who lost to Super Joe!!!

    You make numbered lists because it mimicks microwave dinner instruction boxes. This is how you learned to read. This leads me to believe that you are fat and consequentially stupid, contrary to what you've stated.

    if guys like hearns and srl had trouble outboxing hagler(admittedly hearns didnt get the chance really and srl after a long lay off) how do you expect calzaghe would? yes calzhage had fast hands but his power was below average, he was caught by lesser fighter a few times in his career, hager would walk through his tame shots.

    Also people seem to forget when comparing fighters pre 1990 that alot of the champions fought 15 rounds and that extra stamina would have been enough against alot of the so called better fighters of the 90,s and 00's

    Falsehood.


    No boxer in the history of ESB divides opinion as much as the Newbridge Assassin :deal
