    your logic for predicting the outcome is shocking if you actually watch and analyse the fight you'll see when bernard threw his combinations on the inside he was stronger and it offset calzaghes own attacks and he landed with good crisp shots...didnt see much of the calzaghe counterpunching you rave about to be honest a younger bernard would have had enough to sustain this longer and would have won clearer than i had him winning in the real thing

    A lot more than Hopkins, and it would have been a lot more had Hopkins not been holding on like a scared little *****. It takes two to tango and Hopkins didn't want to dance. So we can't blame Joe for Hopkins not wanting to fight can we?:deal

    Sure he is, he had to wait for these guys to get BEYOND shot to finally break his promise and fear of never traveling out of Wales. You honestly think this fight would be on even if Jones was 10% of what he once was?, the answer is no and the proof is out there when both were young.

    Calzaghe is just trying to make his already ugly resume look better in the most pathetic, yet obvious, way.

    Which legend did he kill again? :huh

    I know it can't be Hopkins...since that fight was close and Hops is STILL in the mix. Maybe Eubanks? The guy he beat 15 years ago? :smoke

    Go chop some logs homo, must chilly up there in Alaska. Or better still, take a walk into the woods, see if you can find one of those big old kodiac bears to butt **** you. That should keep you nice and warm.

    :lol: Damn...what as *******. Are you afraid to answer the question I ASKED SOMEONE ELSE? Out of the blue hostility towards me? Typical actions of the cowardice alias.

    If your money comes back, and you can't cuss anymore, then maybe you can just try to answer the question. thanks in advance wise one. :thumbsup

    I think you have to take his comments with a pinch of salt, after all he's a boxer! - Imagine if we took everything B'Hop or Toney seriously...All boxers talk **** and Calzaghe's no different!

    Of course. Which is WHY Joe is no legend killer. Hella good boxer who could have done so much more if not for his promoter (who I blame the most for his pedestrian resume).

    No alias pal. And you're right I shouldn't have snapped at you, I'm a little wound up, and it's not your fault. So I apologize, and retract everything I said.:deal

    If Calzaghe turns in another performance against Jones like he did against Hopkins he'll kill his own legend.

    Don't retract anything. I can take it. :good

    Despite my disappointment in many of Joes choices of opponents, and recent comments, I have been a fan of his for a long time now. His "legend killer" comments are just very out of character for him. Leave that type of trash talk to the trash I say. :D
