    perhaps not the kindest wording, but it is true to a tee. Cokezaghe lol.


    man I don't know what Cowardzaghe wishes he could take back more, his drug abuse, or his career defining "I don't want tough fights" quote taken straight from his own lips.

    Didn't Joe pull a Mayweather and fight either "green" or "past it" fighters?

    why did joe fight in Scotland? did they not want him in England, so bored were they of him facing wimps like veit again and again?

    you could probably manage all of those for £10 by Megabus.

    if joe is so great for occasionally defending his wbo title outside wales, why was he on the undercard to non title fights.

    and why was he barely getting "one liner" mentions in british newspapers for his defences? somewhere below massive full page stories on Khan, hatton and lewis.

    if cowardzaghe had fought him you'd not claim it was joes best win - moving up and beating the lineal champ?

    not that it would actaually happen since gibbering joe ran from chad.

    One thing I did like about Joe was that if he got hurt he started fighting back. Versus holding on so tight the ref needs a crow bar to separate them, Floyd and Wlad style.

    he got hurt vs

    1. kabery salem, the king of nobodies and nothings
    2. retiring Byron Mitchell, joe then clearly and blatantly turned to motion to the ref to stop the fight in the same round
    3. 40something Hopkins who had dropped no one of late, upon which didn't "fight back", he lowblowed Hopkins to prevent himself getting knocked down again


    Joe fought back on only one of these instances - if you cant "fight back" under such circumstances, theres no point turning up.
