Listen up Calslappo fans. No one isnt saying he isnt a good fighter.. He is pretty.

ditto pavlic

 

over 20 defenses of his title over a decade undefeated and unifying a division is great. Moving up to LHW at 36 and winning the undisputed title in your opponents back yard is great, even if its against a shot great.

name me other fighters who have accomplished as much, but are not considered great.

 

Beg to differ,he is more than good

 

Even Abrahams aside, your definition of "wiping out a division" is stretching it more than a little.

 

yes thanks for setting us straight. it's be an over zealous calzaghe love in here over the past week or so. no hate at all, thanks for bringing us all back down to earth.

 

A truly stupid post, and to think you accuse another group of being biased in your original post. You are a either just in it to rev people up, or you are just simply a very unintelligent person.

 

If you start a thread with Calslappy,Calslappo or whatever other genius name you can come up with you are hardly in a posistion to accuse people of being biased. Muppet.

 

Just look at some of Joe's fights on youtube when he was in his late 20s, early thirties. Completely pedestrian champ beating up on weak comp. Decent power but little of the handspeed we see today. He's actually peaked in the last few years.

 

:-(

 

Who are some current fighters that you consider great and why?

 

Pavlik has fought two top fighters in his division, and that's if you count club fighter Miranda. He beat Taylor primarily on stamina last fight: Taylor runs out of gas. Other than that, he was being outboxed. Not saying Calzaghe has fought steller competition the whole way, but let's keep things in perspective.
