    Who do you think was the greater fighter?.............Imo DICK TIGER fough way better and legit competion,has more wins over great fighters. CALZAGHE on the other hand,has a few good wins but not one victory over a great fighter= fighting hopkins and jones at the tail end of their career doesnt count.

    Joe Calzaghe. No one who Dick Tiger is.



    *Reread title thread. This thread would best go in the classic section. I dont expect much people in the boxing forum to know who Dick Tiger is.

    You placed this in the wrong section. These teeny boppers dont know **** unless its about Floyd, Pac, Khan, Williams, Haye, or the Super 6.

    You could just stay in your own hometown like ward and beat c level fighters and past their prime fighters.

    Ward is in the Super Six. What else could he possibly have done to ensure he fights top opposition on a regular basis??? :huh

    Maybe have home and away fights like everyone else? Everyone calls people like calzaghe for being a regional fighter yet here we have someone that refuses to fight away from home yet is praised as second coming.
    Note im not a Calzagher lover or a Ward hater i just HATE double standards.
