    Dude, not to sound like a jerk, but you sound like a jerk... Let me leave this thread with something you need to take to heart. Little something from my main man Socrates...

    Just because your knew to this board doesnt mean you dont know fa about boxing. Theres probably people out there who dont use a boxing forum who know alot more about boxing than some people on here with 10,000 posts. Thats just a stupid comment. People dont join esb to become boxing fans, they already are.

    Having said that I disagree with the ts. I think Calzaghe fights tend to be exciting even if they are often one-sided. Im not a hater of Williams either.

    There's nothing wrong with finding these guys boring. It's your opinion and I can see where your coming from although I don't mind watching Calzaghe/Williams.

    I reckon both Williams and Calzaghe can hit much harder if they so wish, but the problem is that it's such an effective style. It's very hard for a judge not to score a round for guys that throw so many punches while the other fighter just looks at him waiting for an opening.

    As far as the boring thing goes, take a look at Holyfield-Valuev or Wlad-Ibragimov. Man those were ****ing boring!

    There's a poll on here about that fight and it's around 50-50 at the moment. Williams is a perfectly legit pick as a winner of that fight. Have you ever seen Williams in action?

    hopkins aint that exciting but i kinda like him, he put on a show in the pavlik fight. he sure has accomplished more than joe. joe came to the United states beat hopkins in a very close match i thought and beat a fading roy jones and he thinks thats enough to retire on a be remembered as a great fighter. not by me he wont:nono

    One decent fight doesnt make good pretty much a whole career that consists of holding and butting.
