ATGs who retired on top?

[Joeyzagz]

Calzaghe was similar to Ottke in that he only fought in his back yard and against class D opponents as well as ducking Glen Johnson (thrice), Ottke & Mickelcheski

This is not true. Joe fought most of his best opponents outside of Wales.

Hopkins in Las Vegas
Mario Veit in Germany
Will Mcintire in Denmark
Bika and Lacy in Manchester
RJJ in Madison Square Garden

Ottke would have 3 losses on his record if he went half the places Calzaghe went. Im not even sure if Ottke owns a passport?

Lennox Lewis, Floyd Mayweather, Carlos Monzon, Calzaghe.

Lennox Lewis was truly awful in every aspect. Here he is exposed as the phony that he is.

I hope you're kidding

Roberto Duran? Saoul Mamby?

Jim Jeffries, before the ill-fated comeback.

Not an all-time great but a very good fighter who retired as champion: Ernesto Marcel, won the featherweight title and retired after his final defence against a guy named Arguello.

Funny how the only times Calzaghe fought on the big stage he cherry picked either an old man (Hopkins) or a completely washed-up "name" (Jones)

Using measurements like speed, footwork, movement to judge a 6'5 240 lber is like using motorbike specs to to judge an Abrahams Tank. Lennox's job is to destroy his opeponent, not engage in a speed contest.

Having said that, he is the fastest, most coordinated Heavyweight over 6'4. Its almost unfair for a boxer to be so big & powerful yet agile at the same time.

How is the weather there on Fantasy Island?


So unfair to be a boxer with such a poor chin. Look at him stumbling around, as you can see his legs are gone as he falls forward into the referee and even as he is held by the ref his legs continue to buckle. You should be thanking that referee, as he may have saved Lewis from taking more unnecessary punishment.

That's like claiming a kid is the smartest ****** in the special-ed school: And?
