I mean it too. It doesn't matter who you are a fan of, even its Pacquiao, Joe Calzaghe is the most technically accomplished and complete fighter there is in boxing today, and he's better than the one you are a fan of.
You doubt this? Go and watch what he did against Mikkel Kessler and then point me to the recent performance by your boxer that tops it for out and out boxing skill. I don't believe you will be able to.
I don't want to hear about Joe's power, I don't want to hear about Joe's slapping style, I've heard it before, all you have to do is watch any other fight from Joe's career than Bernard Hopkins and you will see both straight punching and perfectly acceptable power. This is a FACT.
I also don't want to hear about Joe's resume. I already know it isn't the best, and that no way can a guy with that resume be P4P #1. I don't give a rat's ass. If I walked into a boxing ring and did what Joe can do I would be the most talented boxer out there, with no resume at all. Save your whining for someone who cares.
Carry on.
NB: Mayweather fans need not apply, he IS better than Joe, but luckily, right now, he's retired.
Forget About Tarver And Wright!? Then Forget About Calzaghe Beating Hopkins! Bias My Ass....i Give Respect When Its Due...i Respect Mayweather Even Though I Think He Can Be Beat And Is A Piece Of Crap That Ducks People! He Still Is A Bad Man At Boxing!
My Criteria Never Changed...if Calzaghe Destroyed Hopkins, Tarver, Pavlik, And Maybe Wright Or Even Lacy...i Would Say Calzaghe Is The Shit...and Can Not Be Beat He Is Worhty Of P4p Cuz The Best Cant Beat Him!
P4p Means Beating More Than Just 1 Or 2 Great Opponents Or Atleast Moving In Weight Classes! That My Criteria!
He Hasn't Beat Anyone Worthy Of A Top 10 Besides Lacy? Was Anyone He Ever Beat On The P4p List Anywhere? No But A 43 Year Old Hopkins Was At One Point! Which Is Making Pavlik Look Foolish, Now!
I Mean Why Is It That Calzaghe Is Fighting Older Fighters Out Of Thier Prime 43 Bhop, And 40 Rjj? Calzaghe Is I Think 34 Still Ready For War....why Not Take On A Division Champion Like Pavlik And Show What He Can Do To Anyone?
Tell Me Why Face Older Opponents And Not Fresh Up And Comers...like He Did Lacy?
He's Holding Onto His Undefeated Status Tightly, Not Taking Any Chances! He Ducking Pavlik! How Do You Respect That? Oh Yeah And Your Right Bhop Beat Trinidad Once!
Im Not Bias About Uk Fighters...i Saw What Ricky Hatton Did In A Few Fights And I Respected Him....hes A Hell Of A Fighter, Mayweather Just Caught Him With A Clean Shot! But Damn Hatton Steping Out Of The End Of His Career Faces Maywether In His Prime, And Calzaghe Faces Out Of Prime Bhop And Rjj? I Mean Come On! Bring It And Dont Be Affraid Just Like Hatton Is!
Next Year Hatton Will Fight Pacquaio, As Long As He Beat Malanagi, I Mean 2 P4p #1 Fighters Thats Impresive....no Fear In That Man, I Respect That! But Not Calzaghe, Not Yet!well What He Did At Lhw Isn't Relevant Because It Happened Afterwards, So Forget About Tarver And Wright.
He Only Beat Trinidad Once.
So You Said That You Cannot Be P4p #1 If You Only Win Belts In One Division. Now That I Mention Hopkins, You Suddenly Decide That The Criteria Has Changed.
That Is What Is Known As Bias.
Only 1 but did win ring magazine light heavyweight belt...BUT at the time of being P4P he beat Felix Trinidad TWICE, KOD Oscar De La Hoya, Beat Tarver and Winky Wright! That is a hell of a resume....not Kessler, and Lacy who both aint fought nobody besides Calzaghe! Lets see the 5'11 Calzaghe step DOWN in weight to fight 5'10 1/2 De La Hoya...and lets see what he can do!How many weight classes had Hopkins won belts in when he was ranked P4P #1?
There are a hell of a lot posts like that, aren't there?
Either it's the same 2-3 guys with 100,000 accounts, or every 12 year old with a PC hates Joe Calzaghe.
Anyway let's see if we can get 100 pages out of this thread. I think it can be done.
Would Margarito beat Sugar Ray Robinson?
Did prime Charlie Zelenoff have the feet to be fleetfooted?
Could a prime Wolverine beat Batman?
Margarito has no regard for sweetness. He is all badass
I have a video of Charlie oitboxing this guy called Kid THunder and clearly shows the feet to be fleetfooted
Batman would be too elusive
I think the main problem with this post is that you think outboxing Mikkel Kessler is something that's hard to do.
lmaoooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooo
:rofl: :rofl:
Dont get me wrong he is a great fighter....but NO WAY P4P means....he has beaten and destroyed great fighters of many different weight classes....joe has only had 1 weight class that he earned championship belts in which is Super middleweight!! So that could never qualify him as P4P #1...Pacquiao has done it in 2 different weight classes, ONLY De La Hoya is the only fighter EVER to win a belt in 6 different weight classes! You say Marvin Hagler is worse than Calzaghe but Hagler was only a middleweight anyways....Sugar Ray Leonard would have worked Calzaghe, and hell when Calzaghe won his first title he could have fought Roy Jones at his peak since Jones was the supermiddle weight champ at the time! Comparing Calzaghe to Pacquaio is like comparing Tyson to Chavez jr.! I still think Calzaghe should fight Pavlik....it would be his greatest test and proof to the world if he is worthy! Hell Calzaghe would have the advantage since Pavlik fights at middleweight anyways!But Joe Calzaghe is the best boxer in the world. the only reason he's P4P #2 righ now is because Manny Pac has a better resume. If they fought P4P Joe would whomp him.
I've been watching Marvin Hagler this evening and I've decided that Joe is better than him also. Joe would be too fast for Hagler and would fight too close to him. Hagler liked to have his opponents at arms length. He also couldn't have KOd Joe either.
Only a retard like you could post something as dumb as that....let me guess UK? thats the only people that think Calzaghe can fight!

I FEEL A HELL OF A LOT BETTER NOW! THANX! :kabong:CALZAGHE IS A FRAUD! I am blind, deaf and dumb. I'm sitting here right now with my braille screen and keyboard. Boxingscene is my only contact with the world, How do you feel now?
REALLY WOW open your eyes for the insight because for anyone to title a thread "joe calzaghe is the best boxer in the world" has got to be blind, dumb, ignorant, or one of his family members! I give props where they are due...and they aint due with Slappy!

Are you crazy the ONLY GOOD fighters he faced was KESSLER ( who hasn't boxed ANYONE!) Bhop an old man, and Lacy, and he couldnt knock any of them out! HELL OLD MAN BHOP knocked Calzaghe on his ass in the first round....it may not have hurt him much but he still got laid out! greatest EVER what a joke...he should have fought Roy jones years back as well as a younger BHOP! Hell I hate Floyd Mayweather Jr with a PASSION but Ill admit atleast he is a better boxer than Calzaghe anyday! he knocked Hatton out! hell he can box or fight! Calzaghe should have stayed his ass in Wales and shut his mouth or atleast if your going to come over and fight atleast beat the best that is out there like Pavlik who is begging to fight him!

Yeah your right it is a waist of time , Im not a lawyer Wess just a realist that thinks deeper than some and have been around life a little to draw from , the choice of words comes from age and knowing what Im dealing with , I know you can never win a debate with these guys , its ironic that Ive been thier age they havent been mine and boy oh boy they are in for rude awaking if they believe they are switched on now , fanatical fanboys dont only have blinkers on but a bike helmet full off cotton wool .
That was awesome. I wish I could be like you.
This isn't my crazy talk thread at all, everything I said about Calzaghe has been 100% accurate. It is probably the best reflection of my opinions available.
I may have been drinking.
Seriously though, Rod has some of the best information about dogs and kangaroos that you can possibly imagine.
lol Ok I'll take your word for it. I didnt think this was the thread you were being truthful in. Anyway I gotta run. Talk at ya later.
