    Chris Eubank's cousin, by the name of Bobbie Joe Edwards - a bum/journeyman, but had inherited the chin, clearly.

    Yeah Bobbie Joe had a good chin no doubt, but the real reason he didnt get knocked out was he was a crusier weight. Big bad boy. As for Joe not being able to win in the olympics, dude please............. He was only the second man in history to win three ABA titles in three consecutive years at three differant weights. he would have wasted his opposition whoever it was, he had the highest amatuer pedigree.

    Exactly my point - people are making out that Calzaghe has always been unable to sit on his shots, when it simply isn't true.

    He was an amateur of the highest calibre, and was excluded from the 1992 games because he could no longer make welter and the ABA refused to sanction a box-off.

    lol JC lost 2 amature fights in his whole life and should have been in the olympics and would have waled away with a medal.

    there was a argument over being able to take enzo as his trainer and it was decided not to take JC

    oh and 1 on them amature losses his opponents father was the ref

    Well at the Olympics you HAVE to face the best. Be honest now Calzaghe fans, joe never really wanted to do that until he was 35 years old, and then quickly gave up the policy when he was 36.

    Calzaghe would be perfectly suited to the amatures. It is all about scoring points, not doing damage.
