he lacks definite win over Vitaly and he officially ducked Ruiz and Byrd .... so that a few things which are lacking for calling his career a complete.
His win against Vitali is very definitive, he would batter Ruiz and Byrd would be a good win for him to be fair. The only people who think his win over Vitali isn't definitive are morons
It must be awful scouring these boards looking for any mention of Calzaghe, insulting him and then getting destroyed by reasonable and more knowledgeable posters day in day out
Win is a win, but win on cuts being far behind on score cards is not a definitive ... the thing that this fight is still in people memory after 9 years proves that the win was not clear.
win on cuts caused by Lewis punching Vitali in the face very hard over and over whilst behind on the cards in a competitive fight he was taking over in anyway. The reason its still in people's memory is because of all the Klittards who wont let it drop, Vitali's career highlight is a loss... get over it.
Foreman had a prime in the 1st half of his career - have you forgotten he was 40-0 prior to Zaire with Ali? He then became the oldest heavyweight champion in history the 2nd half of his career. That's unique AND complete :good
As said, the cuts weren't accidental they were caused by punches. The scorecards don't matter unless we reach the end of the twelfth round. People are rankled that a fat old man retired on a high, not because the win was not clear or absolute.
No he wasnt. You just dont get it? Whole boxing world wanted to see rematch and the fukin surely was good reason for it. And the fukin Joe Calzaghe's complete boxing career.atsch:rofl Dumb britfuks.
wladimir klitschko is looking like a good bet of retired fighters, aside the ones already mentioned, ricardo lopez deserves a shout as does micky ward (made the absolute most out of limited skills and a lot of heart and had an epic trilogy with his equal whilst making the million dollar payday he had always dreamed of)
