Is Joe Calzaghe the most overrated champion of this generation

A thread to provide a healthy balance to the ridiculous nuthugging going on. Discuss.

 

No not at all what he did at super middle speaks for itself .

 

cant you just search for this in the other 100 calzaghe is **** threads?

delete.

 

Let me be the first to say: NO. I am a critic of his, and although he is wildly overrated by some of his own fans, I think he deserves his #2 p4p placing (for now), and I think most of us non-fanboys and Calzaghe's own rational fans, rate him in accordance with his ability and achievements. He is around the top 10 of his era/generation, no more no less.

 

Doubleasds

 

Interesante.

 

No, and your thread creating capabilities should be disabled for even thinking that this is debatable.

 

Depends on how you rate him...

The public consesus... no. Most people don't think much of him, especially after the Hops fight.

Here... Very very close. Possibly.

 

Obviously that title would belong to Money May

 

No

 

Hate Mayweather if you want but most overrated of this generation I dont think deep down you really believe that do you by the way it's not Joe either

 

If he's a Calzaghe fan I certainly wouldn't put it past him.

 

First of all I don't 'hate' Mayweather, I look at his career objectively. I have never seen a fighter receive as much hype as Mayweather. When you have idiots on message boards argueing he's the best 147lber of all time it really gets sickening. He's beaten a handful of good fighters and made a career of fighting wash ups, has beens, and nobodies. He's one of the biggest frauds in the history of boxing.

 

Not a Calzaghe fan :smoke
