    Who's the better boxer? Not technical boxer but overall.


    Basically what i'm saying is if you put both Joe and Marquez against a multitude of opponents of similar level, who would fare better? Marquez or Calzaghe?

    Overall? Marquez.

    Against opponents? I don't think the results would matter, Marquez would just cry robbery. I mean isn't Marquez like "55-0" anyway?

    Joe Calzaghe is not a boxer but a slapper

    Just cos Joe doesnt get beat up in "classics" doesnt mean marquez is that much better.....its a stupid comparison anyway cos nobody will ever agree

    I'm going with Marquez.

    But Joe the Slapper - was slapping the **** off of Lacy when they fought. Slap somebody enough times and I bet it hurt.

    Lacy is not Pacquiao or Barrera.

    I'm not sure Calzaghe would look that good vs. that caliber.

    Oh wait... we'll actually get to see how good a boxer he is... when Bernard whoops his ass April 19.

    Won't happen, that's why I'm running my mouth so confidently.

    That's what's great with boxing, there is usually an end to the argument. Sometimes the loser gets to argue the decision, but in this case it should be pretty easy to score.

    Bernard is the worst style for Calzaghe.

    And Marquez was the worst style for Pacquiao but he still lost.

    styles only make fights to a certain point, then ability takes over.

    If Calzaghe beats Hopkins easily on points - what excuse will you come up with?
