Why wasn't Calzaghe given more credit for his wins against RJJ and Hopkins?

    Is this an attempt at revisionist history?

    Big up @cuchulain for this poem on @HerolGee

    A moron who hated ‘Zaghee
    Was posting on our ESB
    This poor witless twit
    whose posts were all $hit
    was the dole-dossing twat we call Gee.

    It seems that ol’ herol was right
    To hate the the Welsh boxer, all right.
    For herol’s old lady
    Had done something shadey
    To sweeten the Welsh Dragon’s night.

    We now understand Herol’s stance
    And Gee will go on with his rants
    His woman's the reason,
    because of her treason,
    when Joe had a romp in her pants.

    I'd forgotten all about that little piece. :D

    And so had herol, I'm sure.


    By dredging it back up, you just wasted thousands of pounds and months of therapy that poor old herol
    spent, trying to get past the anger and shame of it all.

    It's always a frustrating time in the Gee household when 'Zaghe's name comes up.

    At the very mention of him, Missus Gee gets very wet, but poor herol goes as limp as a spaghetti noodle !

    :lol::lol::lol::lol::lol::lol:
    HerolGee is an extremely mentally ill Indian, biggest hater of a particular fighter I've ever come across, he also used to be called @Ren on here, and on youtube comments 'JoeCalzagheTheCoward' and 'Cowardzaghe' .His life is dedicated to hating the great man from Newbridge. He's been doing his trolling thing for years and years and years every day constantly, he's pathologically obsessed with Joe Calzaghe. He should be permanently banned, but the mods seem to protect him on here, so ridiculing him with things like that poem is the best bet.:lol::thumbsup:

    Just rewatched Calzaghe v Lacy

    Calzaghe was 33, Lacy 28.

    Age didn't matter there.

    But of course Lacy was considered a bum.......after he lost.

    There needs to be no answer to this thread as everyone knows why Calzaghe did not get the credit he deserved and it does not need to be repeated. Remember, Calzaghe came to America and beat them clearly.................

    That was an outstanding performance. It has to be the best performance of his career. Maybe not his best win, but definitely his best performance.

    Shot, bloated end of career Calzaghe went up in weight and beat 2 fighters who didnt seem interested in him when he was prime

    Those wins seem to make many posters very insecure
