Why is Calzaghe's opposition considered trash?

You sure it wasn't close?, I really remember checking one of the sites on fight night( a few hours before the card starts) and it was really close. Might be wrong again, my memory totally sucks lately.

 

Shut up..prime Bhop JT and Roy beat calzaghe no matter how much you dont like it. Calzaghe would never be mentioned in the same breath as those guys....EVER...

 

Yeah it was about time Calzaghe fought a good american fighter, its probably the most prize money he ever got for a fight. Calzaghe fought a great fight that night that made me take notice of him.

 

He could be if he beats Mikkel Kessler, Lucian Bute, Bernard Hopkins, the winner of Jermain Taylor/Kelly Pavlik, and Chad Dawson. That would make him a 2 division world champion (and actually the champion). Plus, if he did that, he would retire 48-0 with potentially 24 title defenses.

Joe probably needs to beat Kessler, Hopkins, Dawson, and the winner of Taylor/Pavlik to secure his place right up there with those 3.

 

Calzaghe would NEVER EVER EVER be able to stop BHop a fighter that has fought the better fighter in ROY JONES JR in his prime and was not close to being stopped EVER....GET a clue you dillusional twat.nutnutnut

 

I think a win over Bernard Hopkins would mean a lot for Calzaghe. Hopkins is the 4th best P4P fighter in Ring Magazine and is the Ring 175 pound champion. Plus a HOFer coming off of two excellent wins wouldn't be a bad thing for Joe's resume. In my opinion, when people look back on him and if they saw Calzaghe UD12 Hopkins (Joe wouldn't stop him), he would get more respect.

 

He probably wishes he would of came to the states years ago, then again the middlewieght division was filled with alot of great fighters that could of gave him a tough fight like Jones, Hopkins, or Toney.

 

Calzaghe would outwork Hopkins at this stage and win a decision, but Hopkins ring generalship, counter punching, and defense would prevent Calzaghe from getting off at quite the same frantic pace. Hopkins, despite being 42 is still an elite fighter who has the stamina, toughness, and defense to last the distance against anybody from 160-175.

 

because the majority of people only heard of him or respected him after he blitzed lacy,people who've followed joe for years like i have know hes faced some good tough opponents.
