    I think that Calzaghe is really very overated to be honest he is certainly no Roy Jones JR or Bernard Hopkins.

    Im not a Joe fan but i respect what he has done. These fans are acting like i just called him Tony Booth :huh

    All im saying is when you watch Jones,Mayweather,Whitaker you know you are watching extremely talented fighters, when you watch Joe that talent does not jump out at you imo.


    That is not a slight on him as a fighter, because its like i said him not being exceptional at something is a compliment to how well rounded he is as a fighter, he is not exceptional at anything imo but he is good at almost everything, which makes him just as hard to beat and an allround fighter.

    RJJ wasn't an 'all round fighter'. He was successfull because he was one of the most natuarally gifted athletes to ever step in the ring.
