    You're all some gullible mo-fos if you believe Calzaghe is fighting Jones for his "legacy" and not for the big payday and weighing the reward to risk ratio.

    Of course Calzaghe is no coward, and he's fought the guy most fans wanted him to see in each of the last 3 years (Lacy, Kessler, Hopkins), but this is a money fight over a badly faded Jones. Plain and simple.

    Jones's wins over Hanshaw, Tito, and Prince were nothing special.

    Excuse me, hold the phone here, if someone is going to start a thread with my name in it, can they please show me evidence of me calling Calzaghe a "fraud", as I honestly don't remember doing so.

    But I do think this fight is fraudulent and a sham. And no amount of media quotes from the fighters involved will change that.

    This guy knows the score. It's so good to see that not everyone on the ESB is so naive that they believe any old spin and bull**** that is said in the lead-up to a big fight.

    Don't put peoples' names in your thread-titles unless you're sure. That's slander! I get enough flak on here without this ****.

    It was worth posting sure (if it didn't have my name in it and therefore didn't look like a personal attack), but you are wrong IMO. Calzaghe took this fight for the reasons stated above by the MancMexican.

    dont worry. a couple more months here and you'll be able to tell the difference between guys whose opinions are worth a damn, and the assorted bullshitters.
