There are a number of reasons why Calzaghe is ESB's favourite son

All roads always lead to Joe Calzaghe, every major victory in boxing leads back to Joe, he is top of the ESB food chain (much like the Team Elite Corporation), he is 46 and 0 - there was never a blueprint to beat the man and there never will be. Silly billy haterz are always gonna hate.

Its clear that the majority of haterz on esb are blinkered fanboys of Jones, Hopkins, and Toney, gullable fans who grew up believing the delusional brainwashing that HBO and Ring magazine forced down their throats on how great their idol is, they clearly lost touch on reality and when Calzaghe despatched their idols in their own backyard, they cling to every excuse in the book, crying like little bitches with sand in their vagina's.

When the likes of Jones and Toney were scared to fight off a level playing field, juiced to the gills, Calzaghe was busy training harder as a clean athlete

When Hopkins and Jones were cleaning out the terribly weak 160 and 175 divisions infront of gullable, blinkered HBO audiences, Calzaghe was cleaning out a far superior 168 division.

When the likes of Jones, Hopkins, and Toney were busy being clowned by mediocre fighters like Tiberi, sanderline Williams, Thadzi, Mercado, Jermain Taylor, Tarver, and Glen Johnson etc, Calzaghe was busy showing remarkable consistency

When the likes of Jones, Hopkins, and Toney were showing zero adaptability against the likes of Tarver, Taylor, and Tiberi etc, Calzaghe was showing supreme adaptability against the likes of Robin Reid and Kessler

When the likes of Jones, Hopkins, and Toney were folding like lawn chairs when faced with adversity, Calzaghe was getting up at the count of 2 and immediately facing fire with fire, no holding, just rising to the occasion in the heat of the battle when it mattered most.

When the likes of Jones, Hopkins, and Foney were busy trash talking and insulting opponents with shear arrogance and racism, Calzaghe remained down to earth, true to his roots and showed respect for all opponents.

When the likes of Hopkins were stinking the arena's out, feigning injuries and trying to rob fight fans of their hard earned money by getting bouts called off mid-fight, Calzaghe was busy trying to put a show on for the fans, wanting to have a tare up with every opponent.

When Jones, Hopkins, and Toney were fighting in their backyard, Calzaghe was wanting to fight Hopkins in 2002 on foreign soil only for the cowardly Hopkins to be turning down a record payday.

When the dust was settled at 175 and Hopkins was the king of the division, Calzaghe moved up weight, and despite fighting on foreign soil, with corrupt judges, and the corrupt Joe Cortez refereeing, Calzaghe simultaneously became the main man at 168 and 175 by literallty butt-****ing racist crybaby Hopkins in his own backyard sandwiched inbetween the most impressive winning streak of Hopkins entire career.

When Jones was granted the opportunity to fight the new king at 175, many experts throughout the world of boxing predicted that Jones would beat Calzaghe due to Joes fragile hands not having sufficient power to further shatter Roys glass jaw. What we got instead was a boxing exhibition from Calzaghe, clearly demonstrating a far superior skillset.

When Jones and Toney continue boxing to this day, mumbling in their speech and not having a pot to **** in, Calzaghe is happily retired, a wealthy man with all his faculties in tact.

Lets be honest, there is so much to hate, the bitterness, the envy, the jealousy of fanboys trying to throw stones at their idol's master because no one was ever good enough to do their talking in the ring with Joe Calzaghe.

Delusional haterz are gonna hate but the facts will never ever change. Team Elite will continue to educate blinkered fanboys, all roads will always lead to Joe Calzaghe.

Until I started to come to this forum regularly I was indifferent to Joe. He was at one point the best SMW ever mainly because of his longevity. That is not really saying much because it was one of the newbie divisions and he held the worthless WBO trinket for most of it. However, When I came on this board the mentally unstable fanbase who put him on a pedestal drove me to hate him as much I hated RJJ. Now my distaste for him grows on a weekly basis with these countless threads and pointless fanboyism. I wish the guys who dream of having his **** in their mouths would let his him rest in peace and his legacy stand on its out. because if they dont fans who alike i was (am still for the most part) will continue to **** all over his legacy. I hated Jones for the longest time, but now I feel sorry for the guy. I always respect his ability but now i don't bash like i once did . . . please guys just give the guy a rest!

is having your boxing idols **** in your mouth your fantasy??

Jesus Christ go make a thread and post it there.

This would cause an immense amount of butthurt between Hopkins/Roy/Toney fans.

Completely and utterly irrefutable.

You have to understand the British boxing fan's psychology. He lives in the ruins of a once-great empire that not too long ago covered fully 1/3 of the planet's land mass. It is now relegated to a tiny, dimly-lit island the size of the state of Oregon that is gradually but inexorably being taken over by Muslims while at the same time being eaten from within by the cancer of socialism. It's ****ed and everyone knows it whether they want to admit it or not. Boxing is a sport that fetishizes greatness and singular achievement like none other. The British empire no longer stands in the world pantheon, and Great Britain can produce few individuals who can stand in the pantheons of their respective fields. Joe Calzaghe is the only British fighter of the last generation who holds even a remote claim to greatness. In all reality, and by any objective analysis, he was one of the best fighters of his era, but not an all-time great. The hard-core British boxing fan thus completely ignores Calzahge's failings and magnifies his incredibly calculated achievements to the point where Slappy hopefully stands level with actually greats boxers. It's an intensely vicarious and an incredibly pathetic fandom. And incredibly annoying and transparent.
