I've heard people question his competition, Jeff Lacy is his only claim to fame. That's why I think B-Hop is gon expose him. B-Hop exposed Tarver when he showed that the only thing he could do is beat Roy Jones...He bout to do the same thing to Joe, prove he only can beat Mikkel Kessler and Jeff Lacy. And it's at Light Heavyweight? Where's the fight at? I believe it's in Las Vegas, you see them England cats always got problems winning over here and vice versa.
Calzaghe kinda refused to fight all 3... :duh:
Because Calzaghe is fighting Hopkins now. He was in negotiations with Woods and Jones but picked Hopkins, who is considered the best out of them all right now.
I wouldn't be surprised to see Calzaghe fight Jones, the winner of Tarver/Woods or the winner of Johnson/Dawson.
There's the possibility of fighting the winner of Taylor/Pavlik as well, or retiring.
The man who has beaten the opposition Calzaghe is looking forward to fighting, Tarver, Jones and Woods.
Any top middleweight, super middleweight and light heavyweight CAN beat Joe Calzaghe. Now if any of them will, that remains to be seen, but if they couldn't, why bother fighting at all?

Who the fuck is Glen Johnson?

It's threads like this that make me (kind of) agree with Calzaghe being 'overrated'.
Who the fuck is Glen Johnson?
well it's really ashame he is so underrated, and hated by foolish people! it is you fools that are missing out on a great champion in the sport unlike us real fans who appreciate the greatness he has, and continues to provide the sport with!
You bitch stop trying to talk slang you little ghetto slag Calzaghe's claim to fame is beating the great Chris Eubank 10 years ago and all the other fighters in his division being too pussy to step up.
However Calzaghe came to Hopkins' back yard and bullied him into taking a fight with him in which the executioner will be executed.
Calzaghe gonna show that dirty convict how a real white boy fights!
Yeah, that has everything to do with how good he is.
joe was underated, but now i think ppl are overating him. as if hes untouchable or somethin. hes def an excellent fighter and i see him still beating a lot of the top fighters out there.. but bhop has a v.good chance of winning.
Joe Calzaghe is the morst underrated boxer of the past ten years.Real talk. People think he just blindly goes and brawls with his opponents. Look at what he did to Kessler with a jab, when Kessler was supposed to be the obvious better jabber. He throws punches left, right and centre.
Being British I often get shouted down for this but I do think Joe is over rated, yes to have the title as long as he has is a great achievement even though is WBO the stepping stone title, but I feel he has ducked many an opponent in that time, Benn went straight to the States to prove himself but Joe was set to let Wank Warren build him a nest egg and have easy pay days in full house shows in Wales.
the truth of the matter is.. calzaghe has fought weaker opposition than bhop. and has a handful of quality wins. Hes good, but not what people make him out to be.
the good - fast hands, good work rate
the bad - no defense, open to get hit often, his defense is his offense, weak opposition..
Markus Beyer, Sven Ottke, Anthony Mundine, Danny Green, Antwun Echols, Mads Larsen, Frankie Liles are a just a few names he decided not to fight..
yes hes is overated. but he had a good performane over kessler and lacy..
lets also keep in mind he struggled with BIKA from the contender..
i like to keep things in persceptive
And B'hops biggest wins have come against midgets, lets keep things in perspective.
