    I don't think one person on here rated that a good win for Calzaghe.

    Nevada has already cleared him of any possible cheating. They said that THEY provided the wraps for the fighters.. or did I read something wrong?

    How is the Calzaghe-Jones fight overrated?. No-one rates it at all. He got Wide criticism.


    Even the Eubank shout is strange. Havent seen it placed with any great merit. At best it's seen as a decent win for a green fighter against a past prime Eubank. Which it is.


    An Overrated win should be a win that is met with huge acclaim that isnt warranted. Neither of those apply.

    Pimp's shout for Lacy is far better, tho it's more the performance that is praised, not the win or opponent. But a far better shout then Jones and Eubank, 2 fights that get hardly any recognition at all, let alone wide praise. Strange.

    PBF vs Oscar. A year late a featherweight destroys Oscar when Floyd "alledgedly" won by decision.

    How the hell was that win overrated. It was never even that big of a deal.
    Only big deal is how bad he made Gatti look

    Lennox vs. Tyson

    Tyson was completely washed up. He smelled like rheumatism creme.

    That was one of the most dominant performances between two "elite" fighters that you will ever witness. It was a whitewas from start to finish. He toyed with Tito. How is that overrated?

    I have a feeling that as time passes, the Calzaghe nuthuggers are going to completely overrated Jones/Calzaghe. Well, they already do it now. Imagine 20 years from now? :dead
