why do people act like calzaghe ducked prime hopkins and jones??

[Dirk Diggler UK]

all 3 tried to make the fight years earlier, calzaghe having the lamest of all excuses. what?

All 3 who? What are u on about?

[Syf]

from my knowledge hopkins nor roy ever suffered any broken hands in their career..joe constantly hand broken hands..so less wear and tear is bull****

recieving damage from an action of your own in a limited area is vastly different than recieving damage from another that is expressly designed to break you down.

As I said, hurt hands from throwing punches play a secondary role in the "wear and tear" factor to repeated bombs to the body and head.

[Derranged]

i knew who he was..hopkins and jones sure knew who he was......dont know why you didnt

You knew who he was in the mid-90s?

[IMDAZED]

No one knew who he was. But 10 years later, they knew he was ducking?

Who is they? Talk to who you're referring to. Otherwise, why quote me?

by the early 2000's to be honest

how can you duck someone when you aren't even in the same division and no one demanded the fights? did calzaghe want to fight them? obviously not but it's not like he ducked them. he ducked sven ottke though. he wasn't willing to go to germany just like ottke wasn't willing to go to the uk. bunch of ducking frauds who liked fighting soft opposition.

A lot of people on here began following boxing well after both guys were already champs.
