What the hell does age have to do with Boxing knowledge at all? Im 15 yet I bet I have 100 x more knowledge of Boxing than jokes like you.
anybody who says calzaghe was a 'slapper' has no idea who he really is. Pay attention to his earlier career rather than just hopkins and jones you ignorant ****.
if america wanna get more troops over to afghanistan, alls they have to do is open a calzaghe thread over there and they'll ****in swarm the place!!! atsch
I agree with you. But you should consult. I think you have deep personal problems with the word "undefeated".
I keep saying it and will for the rest of my lifetime about anyone out there who laces the gloves, "he aint no Joe"! Only Floyd comes close, these type of ppl dont come around too often. Although you cant stop the haters hating, but wtf do they know? Really?
I'm pretty sure you can find him slapping people from middle to late in his career - even during his peak. He was fine from the distance but once he gets inside and try to throw combos, end up being bunch of slaps. Just one example and early in his career...

Ehh, I think Joe was a good fighter. And as far has this statement goes about "what if he was american".......Well one thing would be for sure...the brits would claim he is a joke and a hype job.
Calfaggy lost to Hopkins and Robin Reid. His fight with Byron Mitchell would have been up for grabs if it wasn't for his hometown ref early stoppage. He avoided memebers of the super 6 and avoided a Hopkins rematch and a match-up with Chad Dawson. Some legacy, lol.
im pretty sure he won against reid and hopkins mate. :nut also, how can you say that was an early stoppage against mitchell? he was out on his feet and there was NO WAY calzaghe was EVER gonna give him time to recover... im sure byron will agree!! atsch
Wake up man. What a ****ing ridiculous statement. That was an atrocious stoppage by biased as **** Dave Parris. You wearing the Jack or drinking some? Horrible stoppage .. "time to recover" - did you even watch the fight? There was only a second left in the round ... as for Mitchell ... J.S: I've got to talk about the incredible fight you had with Joe Calzaghe. What are your memories of that fight - a classic short war that was compared to Hagler-Hearns? B.M: I went into that fight with a lot of animosity. I didn't really want to take that fight. I didn't want it at the time. I had personal issues that handicapped me from being at my best. But I had to take the fight, I was kind of forced into it. J.S: Joe Calzaghe says that was the hardest he's ever been hit, when you became the first man to floor him. Was the fight stopped too soon, do you think? B.M: Yes, I think it was premature. I think they'd [Calzaghe's team] had seen a tape of my fight with Julio Cesar Green where I was down twice in the 1st, but came back to stop him (in the 4th round). I think they knew how dangerous I was. It was definitely a premature stoppage. But I also know what I did wrong in that fight. Day in day out today, when I'm training for a fight, I go over that fight in my mind. I will do so until I finally retire. I would love another go at him, but I know that's not gonna happen (laughs). [He's not Veit] J.S: You never know. Joe is looking at having a farewell fight in Cardiff, Wales. If you were to get a few wins under you belt, he might look at a rematch. The first fight was so good after all. B.M: Well, I would gladly welcome that. ------- As for Reid ... well, I guess that's enough for the moment .. financial markets are moving and I don't have any time ...
there is no ill-informed bollocks at all :nono every opinion i give is backed up by irrefutable scientific fact, that is why i have still never lost a debate on esb and am widely regarded as one of the top 5 greatest posters in esb history :deal on the otherhand, you are a cringe worthy, deluded fool with a feeble knowledge of the sport, crawling throught the sewers of the esb basement
