Could Calzaghe have broken Marciano's record?

Yeah, probably. I don't like it when fighters use this as some yardstick of accomplishment. Brian Nielson and Valuev came close.

 

in an interview he said it would of been meaningless cuzz he would of been fighter for a few more years and he just didn't have that kinda drive left

but realistically.....i say who cares? it's about who you've beaten not how many you've beaten

 

No. Not unless he became a Heavyweight and then gone 50 and 0.

 

if he fought past there prime fighters and no bodys then yes even throught he is retired he knows he didnt fight the best

 

LMFAO!!!! :hey:yepatsch

 

he lost his drive and i think his punch resistance was going if he carried on fighting the best he may have got beat in the next 4 fights..but he achieved all he could at smw and beat the lineal champ at lhw there was nothing more for him to do hence no motivation hence he quit

 

what a douche

 

Sure he could have done so but he didn't want to or even care to from my point of view.

 

Even if he got to 50 and 0 it wouldn't be a Heavyweight record and we all know the Heavyweight division carries more weight in boxing history :yep

 

"Yeah, easy." is the funniest thing there. Why is it always so easy to see the guys you like beating up champions like nothing? Champions are champions for a reason. It wasn't EASY for Calzaghe in the first Hopkins fight, why would it be easy now to take on him, Dawson and Johnson all of a sudden? Come on. Get realistic.

 

No. Marciano's record was that he's the only heavyweight champion to retire undefeated. Calzaghe is not a HW.

 

Slappy Joe never even dared to utter the name Chad Dawson. He would NEVER, and I do mean NEVER, consider a rematch with Hopkins because he knows he got a gift the first time out. The Pavlik/Calzaghe situation was probably the most obvious and thoroughly documented case of ducking in the history of boxing. Wake up noob. Your hero is a full blown ****.

 

No, I think he knew that also.
