ill just bet on it going the distance
That line isn't out yet but I'm sure it will be heavily favored to go the distance. Slapper has a good chin and hits like a girl, so a KO probably aint happening.
Sam Peter is the best thing to come out of Nigeria since Christian Okoye. His post fight interviews are tight when he screams in garbled English. I hope he fucking beats both Klitscko's faces in.
I wonder what all the Shitain fans will say when their overrated fighter loses. There is no way in hell that Calzaghe is the second best boxer in the sport. If so, we are fans of a sad, sad fight game.
Hopkins fights like John Ruiz, he makes everybody look bad....Hopkins is still a one of the top p4p fighters at 43, he is like the Randy Couture of boxing...Hopkins was coming off big wins over top p4p fighters Winky and Tarver before he fought Calzaghe.
Calzaghe deserves credit for clearly beating one of the top p4p fighters in boxing.
WTF are you smoking? Calzaghe didn't hurt him one time. He slapped his forearms a bunch. Next you'll tell me that Wlad-Sultan was an entertaining fight.
He meant running away from making the fight, not what would happen if they were in the ring.
Interesting how Kelly seems to have respect for Hopkins but not for The Slapster.
The only people who respect Calzaghe are his Euro fanboys. No one in America likes him, if they do, they are in a small minority. Hopkins has given Pavlik nothing but respect, which says alot about kelly. I love it how he says Pavlik comes to punch, while joe does nothing but "pitty-pat". If Joe doesn't thourghly beat Roy and hurt him this banter will continue.
In fact, Pavlik needs not just a shotgun but....an AK-47, some hand grenades and a crossbow to beat Calzaghe!
That girl's tit in your avatar looks like an oversize balloon. Obviuosly fake.
I am a mexican american and i back all the mexican fighters in boxing today. I love what they give to the sport. Real warriors. Is there anything wrong with this? I seen people get mad because mexicans root for margarito only because he is mexican. Along with Pacquiao with the filipinos, just some examples I dont get it. What is wrong with rooting and defending your nationality?
Nothing, you should be commended for showing pride in your heritage.
I'm a dane and I only got Kessler and boxing in this country probably dies when he calls it a day. So yes I support him. But I try to be realistic as well.
I wish he would've beaten slappy slap boy so bad.
probably because kelly can actually win by punching with some power or at least some authority, no by feminine slapping, im ashamed bernard even lost like he did
Me too. Bernard had the fight he just gassed out and threw zero punches. Then JC did his patented windmill slap to win an ugly, unimpressive SD.
and.....
Not sure if you realise but there are other aspects to boxing than knockout power. For instance I dont think Pavlik could change tactics half way through a tight fight he is losing and have the heart to come out on the other side as a winner. He's not been tested like that yet, so we will have to wait and see.
Here in America we like to see flush punches to the faces, we don't get off on the super windmill slaps.
this video proves that calzaghe would have beaten the shit outa hokins in his prime.
This video proved that the ref stopped the fight way too prematurely. Calzaghe landed maybe five punches. The opponent looked like a 1950's frat boy.
1. Jermain Taylor is not very good.
I don't understand the hype with Taylor, or why so many consider him 'gifted'. To me is nothing more than a decent boxer who does a lot of things well, but nothing brilliantly. He has no major weapons and I doubt he'll win another meaningful world title.
2. Kelly Pavlik is a hypejob
His best wins come over Edison Miranda (rubbish) and Jermain Taylor (see above). He is slow, predictable and has an average chin.
3. Mikkel Kessler is one of the best boxers in the world
To me Kessler has it all, if you're prepared to accept an orthodox boxer. He has speed, power, is technically sound. His performance against Librado Andrade was one of the most skilled displays of orthodox boxing I've seen. I think he would beat anyone from MW to LHW right now, except of course Calzaghe.
Your Euro/Brit nutriding is really bad. I mean really bad. Let's break down your real agenda. Shoot down Taylor to make Pavlik look bad. Shoot down Pavlik because you know he poses a real threat to blowboy and would probably come out as a favorite. Hype up the one decent person Calzaghe has beat.
I like Haye and I'm a guy that usually dislikes british fighters. I dont care what anyone says, the best fighters do come from America and if a British fighters loads up their record and claims their the best without fighting people from America it makes my stomach churn with disgust.
Well said. I like Fatton b/c he has a good personality. Joe C is the most overrated fighter around, I have a burning hate for him. Haven't seen too many Khan fights, he's a towelhead so he can be chalked.
How do things like that even enter your mind? Do you actually think about these things?
I don't know. I think about alot of wierd/fucked up things. And for a million dollars, I would get gay with David Haye.
I am not joking at all.
I love American people and I have only ever met friendly Americans.
This forum surprises me at times.
Since when did us Brits hate the Yanks?
Interacting online is a little different. In real life most Americans are friendly and don't mind stopping to help you with directions etc. The south is the friendliest part of the country followed by the midwest IMO.
would beat hops by 12 round sweep decision
would beat calzaghe by tko.
would beat abraham by close decision
would beat dawson by tko.
Yes, yes, yes and yes.
I have four American friends and I literallly thank God for them every day because they are always there for me and they help me out so often.
Americans are the greatest and most friendliest people on this Earth.
Also, the Americans that I know only have truly great things to say about British fighters such as Ricky Hatton, Lennox Lewis, Joe Calzaghe and David Haye.
Maybe I'm dense but are you joking here?
