He has accomplished nothing in his career and hid in his country until he wanted to retire. So now if he beats a few fading fighters, he can claim he's great for retiring undefeated. He sucks.
There, I can be like the Mayweather haters too.
God theres some fucking inbreds who post shit in these forums.
Pure haters, if Calzaghe was American it would be a different story.
Stop with the jelaouy morons.
The Ring Champ at Super Mid and Light Heavey, deal with it.
Both his and Hopkins' purses should have been upheld for their performances in their fight. A lot of Calzaghe fans want to say that they were only booing Hopkins, not true. While Hopkins spent a lot of time on his bicycle, Calzaghe was throwing a bunch of meaningless punches that hardly contributed to anything dramatic.
It goes to show that the only highlight anyone has in their sigs is of Calzaghe simulating a gay act on B-Hop. If the fight was on PPV, that would've been a perfect metaphor for what the fans were going through.
So Calzaghe should get his purse taken for being the agressor all fight, and the only guy willing to engage? Really?
I would love nothing more than to see Floyd beat Cotto and Margarito, Forrest and Spinks, and attempt to win a middleweight title, but you can't always get what you want.
I think Max Kellerman said it best when he said a fighter should be judged by his prime years. Nobody judges Roy Jones by his losses to Johnson and Tarver because that was just extra at the twilight. But if you can be successful in those late years, that's something special.
Calzaghe will be known for hiding most of his career and waiting til the twilight to claim he's great. He wouldn't have beat the guys he avoided in his prime and he knows it so he fights them now (when THEY are EVEN OLDER than he is), to claim he could have done so in his prime.
The difference in Calzaghe and Mayweather is that Floyd didn't waste away his prime years hiding.
Calzaghe PWNS Mayweather!
Calzaghe PWNS Jones!
I don't like Joe because he could have done so much more.
I don't like Floyd because he could have done so much more.
I am an equal opportunity disliker .
I prefer fighters who push their limits and who take risks. I find both of these guys consider an undefeated record some high benchmark of immortality. Sorry but it isn't. Real warriors get measured on who they fight, how they win, how they lose. Going after real challenges mean much more than a record.
Both are fantastic fighters and both extremely disappointing at the same time.

To be honest Calzaghe doesn't suck but his fans on here are fucking stupid.
Thats true.
Some said he would beat a Prime roy Jones :ugh: and John Ruiz....
:lol1: Just no
but would you defend him if he wasn't fighting Roy next? I think not
yes i would.. i defended him when he fought bernard..... and i defended him when people thought kessler would knock him out... i see joes talent, im not an idiot..
u think not? sure buddy...

i do see alot of that shit here. that their over rated and all that..
i think the reason for that is that their fans make them out to something so special, when their not..
anyway, im sick of that shit too.. i mean, i even had ricky say where i live is a shithole.. i was wtf? i live in a middle class neighborhood.. not ghetto at all
The same can be said about all fighters...but i get what you mean.
The whole thing is stupid really.
Side note. Joe does not suck, he just isnt as great as sone try to make him seem.
sucks? no, not even close... hes had 21 title defenses... lacy and kessler are very good wins... and altho bernard was older... joe came over here to fight him, and joe did win on my scorecard... in my heart i wanted bernard to win for the USA... but on the other hand i wanted joe to win, so he could fight roy..
joe does not suck.. not at all... im not a fan of his tecnique but hes shown great adaptability, and he does come to fight, and i can respect that...
looks like a roy fan needs to come to joes rescue up in here...

I wasn't calling you out was I?
There was this post that was not boxing related, stating:
why do the americans hate the brits?
your economy stinks?
your all fat?
your obessed with oil?
and the list goes on.. its as bad as it has ever been
I saw that...
I aslo saw 1000000000000000 threads on how Hatton/Calzaghe/Khan etc are all overrated limeys and they shit cause they from UK. Tell me when someone says Floyd is shit cause he from the US. Only a few Brits on here that i know of diss America like that, i see a lot of people hating the UK (dunno if they US or whatever)
I like the US so don't come at me with UK Vs US. I'm completly fed up off it now tbh
Fix it...calm down man :ugh: I have things to do...like real things....I'm just on here while i do them.....
Ok then.....Cheerleaders....interesting..........
Funyn really, cause when did i bash America?...You just attacked UK with the justification that i do it.....
Nice going..

I am pretty much putting every new Calzaghe fan (member since November 2007) on ignore. None of them knows boxing and none of them understands what makes a good career. So this is my final message to you Calzaghe backers:
your boy is an undefeated 2 division champ with 2 good wins
Floyd Mayweather is an undefeated 5 division champ with several good wins
End of discussion. Click.
:lol1: I joined in November cause i like Calzaghe. Recently....Not so much..
