    CHJ will be the victor. Either that, or it won't get anywhere like usual, but he will not be made a fool of.

    Deal?

    Think of me as a detective.

    You have just given me the name of every significant 1940s conman from around the SMW division.

    'Dam - to me the guy has made a fool out of himself tonight. I have fun with him sometimes and tonight was one of those times but there's absolutley no way for you to win the bet as I see things. It's impossible.

    I'll try!

    Bare in mind that guys like Zivic and Gavlin never weighed in at anywhere near 168.

    You have to understand that he entertains me like no poster ever before.:lol:

    Plus, he is legitimately correct most of the time with boxing analysis, his prediction record is 100%.

    Sometimes he goes slightly overboard, but he's always entertaining.

    I've composed a little tribute to both Joes (China and Calzaghe):

    Appears this thread turned out to be a fizzle rather than a sizzle.

    Where's the extra-special-super-duper-anti-Classic-destructo-ray-o'-doom that will wipe Charles off the record books forever?

    As soon as he's finished helping Marvin Marshan to develop the space modulator, he'll find time to come up with the ray-o'-doom.

    This thread should be officially renamed to "China Hand Joe chokes on a mouthful of Joe Calzaghe's manjuice and falls flat on his face."

    But fear not, his pea brain was not harmed in the accident. He'll be back proving he knows nothing about boxing before long.

    My analysis is roughly 7% complete. Already interesting patterns are emerging.

    I think I know where you are going, so I'll save you a lot of mental sweat. A top champion losing relatively often or losing to fighters who themselves lose frequently does not prove an era weak.

    I apologize for using American sports for an analogy, but that is what I know best. In gridiron football, the champion NFL professional team generally loses a few games each year and frequently loses to teams with mediocre records. In college gridiron football, where most teams at best have only a few players good enough to even be considered for the pros, the best team is more often than not undefeated and the top teams very rarely are beaten by any but another outstanding team.
    Losses by the best prove severe competition, not weakness. Undefeated records and long winning streaks show lack of competition and probable weakness in general.
