Does Calzaghe get enough respect for fighting the last 4/5 years with brittle hands?

    Please do not lie. You say when I present facts, comment on things I have written rather than lie.
    I have not commented on Calzaghes KO percentage. I have never said its not his fault about power either :huh, you are telling lies again. These are not comments of mine and you are reaching a bit because you know you are out of your depth with me. Talk about facts I have presented, dont try and twist things to suit you. I think thats what you tried to imply politicians do

    Isn't deflecting the topic because you can't actually back up your statements the classic tactic of a politician?

    What can I say? At the end of the day, **** coke head Calzaghe and his over zealous ball licking fans. Bailey says a prayer, looks at box rec and brushes his teeth with Calzaghe's dick. 100% trash, just like his resume.

    i think even joes biggest detractors understand that fighting with ****ed up hands and still being good enough to beat peak reid, lacy, and kessler, as well as hopkins is pretty impressive. calzaghe barely ever sparred because of his ****ed up hands and when he did he wore 16oz gloves and never put weight into his punches.

    you've been on here a month and yet you sound like many ignorant, delusional, narrow minded fools who have frequented esb before you.

    bailey is providing an educational service for you free of charge. many posters on esb are ignorant, insular, narrow minded americans who don't know anything about boxing unless its shoved down your throats by HBO and ring magazine, brainwashing gullable viewers to suit their own agenda.

    what bailey and knockout artist have said in this thread are 100% scientific facts . . . . . its irrefutable.

    if you had any sense about you, you would take off your blinkers, listen to what is said and educate yourself, breaking free from the delusional society you live in and start living in the real world free from your blinkered fanboy opinions.

    Absolutely, but that was never in question, his dragon heart and his italian blood make him the best european fighter since Cerdan and above Maske and Henry Cooper and Turpin or McGuigan. His brittle hands... Okay, his slap was more of a relentless pressure technique but he was a good technical boxer from fingers to toe, a sure Hall of Famer but will you Calzaghe fans please stop telling he is the GOAT like the Klitschko fans? It seems you want to **** other members and start useless threads.

    Yes, respect. But in terms of greatness, you can't overstate it.

    Gooners lack of boxing knowledge was embarrassingly exposed in this thread.

    Hopkins knocking out Trinidad is better than the rest of joe's resume put together.

    I don't particularly agree with the above but I find the claz apologists a bit irritating. This of course dosent take away my respect for the fighter and his obvious greatness. He is who he is and undefeated champion with questions surrounding his place in the atg listings.
