    There's simply no more offensive fighters in the game. And it's a shame. The sport is becoming more and more watered down with low skilled fighters for the sake of entertainment.

    Calzaghe could hit his opponents so fast and hard that they themselves didn't even know they were KTFO, and were utterly confused when the referee waved them off.
    Even the audience needed to take a moment to catch up with events.

    Outside of Britain, no one heard of that fraud until he fought a washed up Roy Jones. Stop acting like the man was some historic prize fighter.

    Beterbiev only has 10 fights and he's already better than Calzaghe.

    Real Talk.

    Tyson Fury has offended women, gays and a whole legion of humourless politically-correct sheeple who chose to take his words seriously.
    I'd say his offensiveness is proven.

    OP is obviously trolling to try and bring attention to some guy that got lucky to get a split decision from hopkins.

    You mean he got lucky that he didn't get robbed by corrupt Golden Boy judges and hometown ref?

    Hopkins was lucky he had Cortez who kept helping him get breathers or he would've been stopped
