Id throw a 3rd element in there too Smazz;hes European. I may come across as xenophobic in this,but ive been a boxing fan for donkeys years now,and,in general,Americans cant give Euros too much credit. When i was a boy there was a US- 'Who's this bum?'-attitude around Honeyghan, Herol Graham,Pat Cowdell and so on.Really there was.
True yeah. Even Lewis gets an absurd amount of criticism. It obviously grinds certain Americans. Mores the pity. You would think with modern day technology they'd take the time out to watch a few fighters from outside their shores.
You can't figure out why he is still boxing? could $$$ have something to do with it? Listen... I am not going to convince you that bhop is way past his prime no matter how much he tries to fake it. You should be able to figure that out yourself with common sense. The man is forty ****ing three and you think he is in prime or something. If Bhop and Joe were the same age (36) bhop would have beaten Joe easily. It is a typical trend for Joe to fight out of prime guys. Also if you know anything about boxing odds then your vcash wouldn't be 0 and you would know that most boxing experts predicted a joe victory thats why Vegas had the opening line 3-1 for Joe.
umm actually dummy i have 1000 put on pac and diaz .. and i have some tied up in the miranda fight .. as well as about 150 tied up in the thompson klitchko fight but go on about me haveing zero ... i'm enjoying this
i'm well aware that hops is passed his prime ..what you clowns don't realize is joe is also passed his prime being that he started fighting in 92/93 ... you guys are just wanting joe to be fed to the lions so you can sit back with a smug look and say ..see see see i told you he was nothing ... give it up man ...nobody is buying what you're selling
i thought people from new york were supposed to know there is a world outside america ? just as narrow minded as a red neck from alabama .
until someone like lennox lewis cleans up the heavyweight division or someone like nigel benn beats the **** out of gerald mclellan. if they can't see calzaghe is the real deal just leave them to it . ****ing insular blinkered sad people . if it wasn't the most powerful nation on earth it would be funny .
