    hopkins got screwd in the taylor 1 fight so dont even bring that up.

    bhop is old and he is so post to lose and when ever he does we can say he was to old, i mean hell its the truth.hes just that damn good i guess.

    i like to see joe fight chad dawson hell id like to see him fight rjj or bhop or taylor.he gets his props from me, but to get my upmostt respect he would have to fight and beat aleast 3 of the guys i named, oh throw winky in there as we,ll.

    Joe Calzaghe would recieve little credit for decimating the small Winky Wright at 168. LHW Hopkins is praised beyond the yonder for doing it at 170.

    And how much credit would Hopkins get for decimating Sergio Mora (Manfredo's Daddy)?

    Don't be so naive mate. American boxing promoters do have influence in the American boxing media.

    I can't speak for the rest of americans but Joe has my respect. If he beats kessler he will have it even more.

    Joe Calzaghe would not be placed in the top 4 for shutting out Wright.

    Alright there mate, it is comforting to know there are at least some American, not suggestable enough to buy into all of the the American boxing medias poisonedd words.

    I reckon he would be regarded number two, just behind Mayweather. The deciding factor perhaps skins color.

    you're being seriously paranoid and talking nonsense.

    If Calzaghe beats Kessler he will get major recognition, and if he beats BHop he will also get major recognition. And when he beat Lacy (which was a really good win but nothing compared to beating Hopkins or even Kessler), he STILL got major recognition from the media.

    Are you blind?

    Calzaghe is one of best 5 fighters of all time easily, yet he isn't even regarded top 5 P4P today by many yanks.

    Bull****, he is a top p4p fighter today however he is far from being one of the best fighters of all time. Why don't you become a ring girl for Joe's upcoming fight you nuthugger?!

    We are talking hypothetically as the case study of "Calzaghe vs Lacy: the aftermath" has previously been discussed in great depth.
