Calzaghe to seal his legacy against another old fighter?

nah. Its Ricky Hatton who chips on my shoulder.

Calzaghes a cracking fighter. I admitted that before the Hopkins fight. My posts are all there in my archive. Im a huge fan of Hopkins, so it took lot for me to admit Joe was going to win. However, im not letting all the triumphalism going on here & Joe talking about being a legend killer cloud my judgement.

It was a 43 year old Hopkins he beat, & even so he had a major struggle & many thought Hopkins won.
Now hes finishing his career off against Jones, a past it 40 year old. I just dont like it. Im allowed to not like things, arent I?

As for you welsh(Im assuming your welsh) enjoy Joes victory & shout it from the rooftops. & I mean that. If I was welsh, I would be doing the same.
Im not going to go easy on the Joe bandwagon jumpers though. I have said it till Im blue in the face, but apart from the welsh, Joe didnt have 5 fans on the whole of Eastside. I remember it well. Now hes winning the big fights though its a big Joe orgy, with former haters & mysterious noobs now sucking in all the glory like they own the place.

I hate Calzaghe bandwagon jumpers. Cos Im a loyal **** who sticks to his guns. As for the Calzaghe doing better than any scot thing you threw in my face? Joes had a great career. I have no problem with that. If people think hes better than all the scots, fair enough! Joes a friend of Alex arthur, & Im hoping he comes to Scotland to cheer Alex on, that would give the arena a huge lift, & Arthur himself.
Just cos Im moaning about how Joes ending his career, doesnt mean I dont respect his achievements. I dont know why your bothering with me anyway, you should go back to the big Joe love-in thats going on in all the other threads.

Dont let little 'ol me spoil the party!

 

Oh yeah, I like RJJ. fighters from my era when I was growing up as a boxing fan, its easy to get nostalgic & misty eyed when you think of these guys. I nearly did it with Hopkins, originally predicting he would beat JC until a friend of mine who knows more about the noble art than me told me that my weakness was letting my heart rule my head. So Im being colder & more analytical now, thats why I changed my prediction on ESB to a JC win when he fought Hopkins.

& thats why Im saying JC will beat RJJ. When fighters are past 40 years old, then you have to forget what these guys did in the past, & class them as shells of the fighters they once were. Well in my new book anyway.
When you have a proud prediction record like mine here, you have to make sure you keep it intact. & thats what Im doing now. warren has engineered Calzaghes winding down so perfectly, I have to take my hat off to him.

Man, Warren even knew the result of the fight before it was announced! So its all been orchestrated nicely for Joes farewell fight. IMO.

 

That fight made me laugh, mainly because when Malinga got Ko'd he tried to make out it was a slip He was a proud man was Malinga, but that was taking things a bit too far!
