Being undefeated doesn't mean a whole lot, I can't believe you said this. Winner of the tournament will have fought and beat the best in the world at 168.
Yer but all depends on points in this torni, Direll, Kessler & Abraham have all now lost.
And Abaraham is still leading due to a knockout.
If Froch or Ward win i would think there records would beat joes!
Yeah, Guzman really is screwing up, win or lose. But I really didn't think Guzman would win the second time. He looked like his old self again, but I doubt he will be fighting lightweights anymore.
Guzman needs to be banned from the lightweight division. I was all for Funeka this time but I started almost cheering Guzman to the finish line b/c he showed some serious balls and fought an intelligent fight. I think Funeka's last 2 opponents understood it could be certain death making weight against Funeka. Zahir Raheem was served up on a platter nicely for Funeka and wasted no time with him or his boxing skills and still to this day Zahir Raheem has been wondering the streets of Johanesburg lol. Juan Guzman vs. Lamont Peterson
Poor Funeka the man just can't catch a break. I thought the judges would give it to him but Guzman was just to fresh and did attempt to make weight what a POS.

Whoever wins will come out with a good resume. If you look at Froch if he was to win his next 2 fights (thats 'if'), he would have these names on his resume:
Pascal
Taylor
Dirrell
Kessler
Abraham
You could probably also add 'Ward' to that list if Froch was to go on to win the tournament. Id probably say that was better than Calzaghe's resume (although Eubank, Hopkins and Kessler were great wins in my opinion).
Although (slighty off topic ) i do think a slightly younger Calzaghe would of won this tournament.
Thats a more than fair accessment, I can respect that. Its fun watching a young guy thats not the hardest hitting guy out there frustrate the power punchers so to do that against someone like Arthur Abraham would have been alot more creditble than a Jeff Lacy. I still wonder how Jeff Lacy b/c known as unstoppable, HBO wouldn't even deal with him b/c they knew he was a limited fighter. At one point they even considered serving up to Felix Trinidad, but Winky scored that touchdown with Dan Birmingham since he was both mens trainer at that time
Yes Williams and Funeka are very unique fighters, big frames but they can squeeze themselves into those smaller weight classes.

yeah he's very tiny it's almost unbelievable. When I spoke to Jameel Mccline I couldn't help but notice how skinny the mans legs were. He's big up top and small on the bottom but he can move. Paul Williams is a freak of nature, I remember thinking in a street fight I'd just rush his skinny ass but in the ring how could you get past his reach. His arms are super long and it wasn't until then that I said there is no way Mosley, Mayweather or Pacquiao would should ever step in the ring with him. At the weigh in I thought Winky would have a chance because PWIL looked like a tall ethipian and you could see his ribs he weighed 157 but it just didn't look right for some reason

A few people told me they saw Floyd in the city, and he was a little dude, but he had a bad bitch with him.

You would be right i guess.. Calzaghe is probably better then everyone in the tournament still in his prime. Sad that alot of these fighters came along at the tail end of his career..
Imagine if he could have added Ward, Dirrel, Froch, AA etc too his resume
It would be outstanding but will probably never happen so there will always be the what if and honestly there are 2 many.
Carl thompson a fcuking huge CW couldn't put Eubank to sleep you daft twat left alone a blown up MW.
Jesus learn some boxing history before you come out with that sort of tripe.
Come on you act like you know boxing. True Abraham is a short in height but he walks around well over 180 pounds you wanker and just b/c he's short doesn't mean a damn thing you fool, his height only gives him trouble against slick guys that have speed Carl Thompson had neither or maybe you think he does b/c like you all of your fighters fight like robots you cunt. Arthurs height and crushing power in both hands gives him the ability to put flat footed chumps to sleep and early so don't give me this history BS get your ass in the gym to get a better understanding of the fight game. There's a reason your favorite fighters stay the hell aways from American Boxers, you sux like they do
Damn Jin Mosley is hot even with them damn 10 kids, I'd become there daddy in a heartbeat, I'm sorry but when I met Shane Mosley in Vegas I was shocked at how little he was don't even let me get on the story of how Mayweather approached us at the casino to ask why we were looking over in his direction. Imagine it's 4am and 10 huge steriod freak of nature guys (don't even ask what color) approach you and in the front is Mayweather at 5'7 and some change asking if there's a problem, "Naw Naw ain't no problem champ we was just seeing if it was you"
A few people told me they saw Floyd in the city, and he was a little dude, but he had a bad bitch with him.
Its not hate at all. Whoever wins will have a better resume. Thats fact.
Exactly people get butt hurt over the truth okay fine Joe Calzaghe and Bernard Hopkins are legends because they fought the best of their respective era and Benard still fights on at 50 years of age.
Eubanks would have been put to sleep by Abraham come on man, Ward would have bullied him and Froch is dirty enough to beat anybody lolCarl thompson a fcuking huge CW couldn't put Eubank to sleep you daft twat left alone a blown up MW.

I want Jin Mosley to smack me like the dirty little whore I am.

My bad my bad!! Calm down playa u right my eyes was playin tricks on me, I just pushed my wife down the stairs again I was a little distraugtht
I want Jin Mosley to push me down a set of stairs and punish me with a whip while I'm tied to her bed post.
However, still Calzaghe would slap the shit out of all 6 of these chumps.
lol I think Calzaghe should come out of retirement and face Sergio Martinez as a tune up lol
Froch is the only person who could come close to having a better resume than Calzaghe.
come close no way my friend Froch resume was better the day Jean Pascal went on to do other things unlike any of Calzaghe's opponents. Froch would never disgrace himself or his legacy by facing old ass men. And once again he's going into hostile enviornment to face Kessler who everybody has pegged as the favorite to win. U get major props for those kind of performances come to the states knockout an American Hero. Go back home beat an promising Olympian go back to War with Kessler in his back yard nuff said. Real champions face adversity and rise to the occassions they don't sit behind their promoters and face faded glory and guys who fight on the contender named Peter Manfredo a seriously blown up welterweight and celebrate in victory what shame

The winner of the Super 6 will have a better resume then Calzaghe. | BoxingScene Community
