Joe Calzaghe is the Greatest Of All Time

You are absolutely right my man. But Calzaghe has way more power than Thomas Hearns..

 

FromWithin, Thomas Hearns has nothing on Calzaghe :good:

 

Well we seen this weekend that Brock is now the King of MMA. How would Joe do vs Brock. I think Brock is just as fast, and much stronger then Joe. I do think Joe has him with the Chin. But what the hell do I know.

 

Why are you comparing Brock to Calzaghe (**** sport to the sweet science) ? I dont infect the MMA thread with boxing references so dont do it here !

 

Well, you said Joe could have a good chance vs God, so why not Brock???? Like in one of my early post, this thread have drop my IQ via 150 points.

 

Well why you still coming on here ?

Ever heard of sarcasm ?

 

Good wind up thread


No time to read any of it though.


Without giving it careful thought, I've got Joe at about #8 (could be a little lower) on the

Yes, that is why I am posting on this tread...

 

Good post Brit. Your top 7 is right about on the money.

 

Calzaghe!!!!!!!

 

Woah princess Britney, you being serious ? Not one of them barring Jones touches Calzaghe. And we all know what happened to Jones dont we? Calzaghe was nearly 37 at the time of the fight and past his prime

 

Thanks, man.

Most good athletes can get the list right if they have the opportunity to watch the fighters perform.


Many ESB posters get the list wrong because they are apparently better at internet posting & keyboard wars than any actual sports.

 

Dan,

Got a number of posts already spelling out his career. You can search and read them rather than have me reiterate. Or, go to the Brit Forum and go through the thousands of JC threads. Wade through the nuthuggers and you'll find a number of posters who have a correct handle on his career and abilities.

Alternatively, just watch every single fight (as I have) and for the fighters listed and compare.

If you still have the same opinion it means you are ****ing lousy ass non-athlete with no ability to discern great quality from merely good.

 

Calzaghe had so much talent. I never got tired of watching him fight.

 

Brit. There's no way any of them apart from Jones come close to Calzaghe
