to prove himself to Yankee fight fans? We have just seen the aging Welsh warrior dismantle the young gun usurper, Kessler who has cut a swathe through the Super Middleweight Ranks.:bbb FFS! Kessler has only lost 2 rounds in his entire Professional career And still they diss Joe...... still they doubt (not all) I have given up reading the General Forum in disgust. What is it with these people? We have witnessed a truly great match up of 2 great fighters and still Joe is not commanding the respect he deserves. It's an attitude I have difficulty in coming to terms with.:blood OZ
Pavlik KO round 8!:bbb atsch I don't want to tar al the americans with the same brush. Posters like Zakman are giving him props.
Youre delusional and paranoid. What have you read one comment on a message board from an American and think Calzaghe gets no respect from Yanks? Grow up.
It's not one comment.... go read the General Forum.... Perhaps you should heed your own advice.:roll: .
He lost 2 rounds against Anthony Mundine..... and to my knowledge, until Kessler fought Calzaghe..... That was it. Kessler is a great fighter..... But he was defeated by an even greater fighter. :good
**** anyone who doesn't believe in him now. He proved himself as the best 168 pounder to ever do it. Pavlik at 168 after the Taylor rematch or X at 175, then retire.
Personally I'd like to see him fight Woods at 175 or hopkins on the hatton de la hoya undercard next may - thats just me though. I dont care bout the yanks.
There's not a chance in hell that Calzaghe will be fighting on anyone's undercard nevermind a Hatton undercard.

I'm surrounded by ******s. :roll:
Have you ever seen the film jay and silent bob strike back, i think calzaghe should find out the where all these doubters live go and give them a slap and see what they say then.:!:
Calzaghe has nothing left to prove. There are still a few jokers/haters but they are being swamped by the vast majority now who appreciate Calzaghe for what he is: - The best super middleweight in the world and possibly of all time (top 3) - One of the best boxers in the world pound for pound (top 5). - One of the best British boxers of all time (top 3)
I don't know enough about British Boxing to agree with No.3 ..... but I certainly agree with your first 2 assessments. On reflection though...... it would be hard to argue against No3 on the balance of probabilities. :deal
Oh, okay, joint top of the bill with hatton De La Hoya. As for "any chance in hell" - money talks and 80,000 people with golden boy backing in wembly would get any fighter there.
