Was "Camp Calzaghe" Wales greatest ever boxing stable ?

It's strange that Clev has really emerged since leaving ''Camp Calzaghe''..

 

I think its probably coincided with Clev maturing naturally. He was a frail looking wiry SOB back then.

 

"camp calzaghe"
sorry,just made me think of all the ***** slapping he used to do:gayfight

 

Have to wonder just how good Cleverly if camp Calzaghe's reign of triumph over boxing had continued.

He would probably look a little messier, but but throw a ridiculous number of punches, allowing him to beat superiorly skilled opponents.

 

In my time it has to be Eddie Thomas Stable

 

Probably has to be considered but take Calzaghe out of it and what do you have ??

1 Fighter who considerably over-achieved with a few poor opponents before being put in WAY out of his depth and never reaching the same heights again.

1 Fighter who it seems ridiculous even got a 'World Title' shot let alone winning it, beaten by a fighter a domestic rival outclassed in his first real foray into the weight.

1 Fighter who was simply not that good at all.

1 Fighter who left the gym and has gone on to look 10 times better in doing so ??

 

iced :deal

 

Cleverly used to spar with Calzaghe...

Modern fighters must seem like tomato cans to Cleverly after facing off against Joe.

 

I think Rees and Enzo's little run at world title level actually supports the idea they had a good thing going. They don't look like world class fighters so in reality they overachieved to ever get there.

 

Or Frank and his wallet did :deal

 

It is better than people will give it credit for. Bradley Pryce has been in and around British title level for most of his career, Gavin Rees has proven his worth, Gary Lockett had a spell there too. Then you've got the more obvious names of Calzaghe and Maccarinelli. People laughed at Enzo Calzaghe (myself included) when he declared that he would turn Nathan Cleverly into a world champion. It has been very highly succesful.

But you don't have to go back too far to search for competition. Dai Gardiner trained Steve Robinson, Robbie Regan, Johnny Owen, Dazzo Williams amongst others.

 

and Barry Jones.
