    I disagree that Floyd would get beaten by Joe on the basis that a bigger Floyd is a slower Floyd. Floyd is a deceptively big *******. Taller than Canelo, longer reach than Canelo, yet Canelo was supposed to be the "bigger" man. It would have been a hell of a fight though . . .

    Joe would **** Pac right up, and I am a Pac enthusiast.

    Sounds real good. You put a lot of time, thought, and effort in that, but Calzaghe faced no one, through out his career until later in his career. Which is one of the reasons why he gets bashed now. Him being from the UK has nothing to do with it. There are plenty of non American fighters who get's love from all around the world, so spare me the American ignorant crap card your trying to play. I said he got dropped by old men because it was the truth. Jones in his prime relied on speed and reflexes, which he clearly lost a lot of by the time he faced Calslappy. I said it before and will say it again Prime Jones would of stopped him. Anybody who's a fan of boxing and not bias, I'm sure will agree. You would think a guy who retired undefeated, would be looked at as an icon of the sport all around the world, not just where he's from, considering there are not to many fighters who could pull that off. Yet it's the total opposite with him, because the truth is the truth.

    Well Joe was not in his prime, but he would take Eubank at smw, anytime. RJJ, prime, is the only one, most likely, but it would have been very close if it was like 2004 Calzaghe.

    OK, a bigger Floyd would be slower, Joe would simply outwork his ass.
    PAC would still walk straight in and be outboxed ala JMM. BTW a bigger Pac would be slower too.

    Thats what makes fighters like Joe and Roy Jones special, they were big men with very fast hands.



    BTW.. NONE of what you say or I say CAN be proved!:hi:
    Its boxing opinion like.. Ali vs Tyson

    how does he outwork a large version of Floyd, Floyd has no trouble lasting 12 rounds, and is the superior boxer in every round of those 12.


    See nothing you say makes any sense.


    Calzaghe doesn't have the power to stop a large version of a fighter as good as Pacman.

    Your opinions are based on ****.
