Joe being in the same sentence as Mayweather is a joke, because one is extremely talented the other is someone who waited till the competition aged enough for his primary weapon "workrate" to be the decisive factor so he had a chance of beating them . The rest of Joe's career was spent fighting FORMER champions on the slide who had lost their world title before he faced them coincidence HELL NO
He fought two unknown prospect who together cant boast a good win on their resume's. And the top and bottom of it is he just aint as talented as Mayweather.
Mayweather fought Corrales at his best and Castillo none of the established names Joe has fought were in their prime.
IM British, not Yank, even i though BHOP beat Calzaghe.
As for "Jermain taylor beat the shit out of B-hop Twice". This is why British Boxing fans are dellusional, and nobody really knows British Boxers outside Britain.
Try watching the fight first. Calzaghe himself said the fight were draws, many had Bhop winning.
Face it mate, Calzaghe and Brit fans may be bittter. But Calzaghe is the most bitter considering his latest comments. Just because his last fight was a major flop, and no boxing pundit wants anything to do with him, it's his own fault.
I'm British, but it's pathetic to look at race/colour etc. It's what happens in the ring. Calzaghe had talent, but look at his career, it's got one big Question Mark on it.
Frank Warren said also after he was fired, Calzaghe always wanted to pull out of fights because he used to always get worried.
Calzaghe could have been a Legend, but his fear of a loss like it was getting shot is pathetic
Good post .......
"This is why British Boxing fans are dellusional, and nobody really knows British Boxers outside Britain"

jermain taylor beat the shit out of b-hop twice :lol1::lol1:
clearly you have not seen the Taylor vs Hopkins fight.
most people already know this. Calzaghe is a good boxer, not great like he thinks but good. Mayweather and Pacquiao are leagues above him though. He didn't dominate the 43 year old Hopkins, some say he lost.

Your`e remaining credibility vanished in this thread. At least Brizpack got banned because he was an idiot.
You used to post ok. Shame people will look at the legend in your sig and think of your`e dire posting and hatred.
o well.
baaaaaaaaaw
:bottle::bottle:
Dont get me wrong Mayweather is a pussy but at least he became a pussy when he established himself. Calzaghe has always been a pussy and he only stepped up against fighters on the slide or when they were past their best.
:lol1: I gotta put this in my sig.
You are being a bit to harsh towards Calzaghe........
Yes but you can't say he doesn't have a point. I think he does. I was never aboard the Joe train and will never be bought on a guy who is a cheat.
To bad Toney and Hopkins never fought each other...... With the current 24/7 series it would of been filled with golden moments of trash talk.
Haye vs Vialli would also be interesting with a Countdown or 24/7 behind it.
They would be throwing their fists about thats for sure. Hopkins would not stand for Toney's BS.
Yeah good shout on Haye v Vitali:lol1:
I agree about the Trinidad episode:lol1:
I would of loved to see a press conference with any combination of these 4
Herbie Hide
Riddick Bowe
James Toney
Bernard Hopkins
I know Hide and Bowe did have a press conference but they are both fiery characters.
Hopkins isn't racist,it was just a line used to sell the fight. If he truly believed that "I will never lose to a white boy" montra,he would of used it for the Pavlik presser. Bernard showed tremendous respect for Pavlik before and after the fight.
Well we will never really know.
He comes across very ignorant thats for sure. Remember the Puerto Rican flag episode ? you cant just keep sweeping shit under the carpet.

You can't be serious....
Youre silly and look worse in this thread.
Leave it alone you are in a 1% minority.
Didn't i KO you in 1 round a few pages back ?
Your lame argument fell down like a pack of cards :lol1:
why do you like hopkins anyway hes a rascist prick if i would said stuff he said i would got beat up maybe you got the same attitude as he has too.
I dont like Hopkins per say i think he is ignorant and probably a bit racist, but he is a damn good fighter and he is a character. The old executioner act is good for Boxing its panto etc.
On top of that i like to think of myself as a thinking fighter which is what Hopkins is.
Yea he didn't land one punch in the fight? Dude, they both barely landed meaningful punches, but like I said, Joe was more active so that made him win the rounds.
Its obvious he landed A punch in the fight.
And that is why neither of them deserved to win.
BTW Hopkins must of been hitting more effectively than Calzaghe has was on his ass in round 1 or 2.
