    That's okay, not only are the UK fighters iron chinned warriors, the posters are granite chinned, ATG posters.

    Number 1.

    You should remember Inspector, when SRR came to the UK, his performance enhancing drugs was ceased by customs. Later that week Ray folded like a lawn chair against British gatekeeper Randy Turpin.

    Much like Ali was in big trouble in the stricter PED testing region v journeyman Cooper.

    When did Joe ever have these troubles where stricter drug testing was involved

    Thanks, Hans. I think I'm willing to forgive Robinson this obvious cheating on this occasion, which just goes to show how fair and balanced I am. :good

    You mean you?

    A 32 year old, unemployed Broner fan with a yeast infection who rates Broner as an ATG?

    I'm sure The Inspector believes your opinion is relevant in the overall scheme. Lolz

    Calzaghe only became undisputed Super Middleweight champion at the end of his career. The fight against Mikkel Kessler. What did he do when he became undisputed champion? He went up in weight and fought two past it champions in Roy Jones and Hopkins.

    How the hell can you put Joe calzaghe above Muhammad Ali? A guy who became undisputed champion on more than one occassion and defended his "UNDISPUTED" title about 19 times.

    Floyd Mayweathers resume destroys Calzaghes resume. And I'm not a fan of Floyd Mayweather.

    Joe Calzaghe's resume was like the Super Middleweight version of Deontay Wilder.

    Great fighter, but Top 5 ATG? :tired

    And he was born in England, so I am not biased in the least.

    Jones was past his best but he ducked Joe for years. As it turns oput, Hopkins was not much past his best at all. And Super Joe taught him a lesson in his onw country, to the extent that Hopkins tried to feign injury to escape his beating. :yep:deal

    I have a lot of respect for Ali, but he was on ***** street (and would have lost were it not for cheating) against light heavyweight, Cooper, and also lost a couple of others.

    Indeed.

    I was banned for asking if Ward could get as many to his fight as Quigg v Frampton did for the way in.

    The fact is he probably won't and the truth hurts for a MOD. :lol::lol:

    how does one duck someone from a different division?


    yes joe taught him how to fake getting a low blow in order to avoid getting koed by a 40something.
