Calzaghe vs Dawson at 175 lbs

[$Bullsfam$]

Calzaghe is a great fighter no doubt too many haters out there. He would've beaten Glen easily I don't know about Roy and Bhop in their prime but it would certainly be very competitive match. He will adjust to Dawson's style and beat him by wide UD.

Then why did he duck Glenn 3x??????? 1 excuse is fine. Maybe you can live with a 2nd. But a 3rd time??? Now thats some straight pussay *****.

Have never seen Calzaghe adjust in any fight. He just swarms you with uncomfortable slaps to win decisions.

Calzaghe by UD.

This fight would never even happen. Unless Dawson turned 40+ then Joe might do it.

Both Hopkins and Jones were offered fights around 2000-2002

Old Roy & Old B-Hop put Calazaghe on his ass. He has no power whatsoever to make Dawson respect him. Dawson would do what a young B-Hop & young Roy Jones would have done to Calzaghe, Expose his ass and win a decision. Maybe even stop him.

Calzaghe tended to be susceptible to right crosses during the first 3 rounds of fights, after that he tended to make the necessary adjustments to defend himself against them. You will notice that neither Kessler, Hopkins or Jones landed many right hands on him after round 4

Joe is a good fighter but not great. Like I said in another thread today, when you have 2 people with 20+ title defenses in the same weight class at the same time then you know their are some vagina & ducking issues..

Are you talking about Sven Ottke?

Joe was scared *****less of Glenn Johnson who would have knocked him out cold.

Not too sure what happened there, as the story goes Calzaghe had injury issues. Whether or not that was true, I don't know. I cant see Calzaghe getting koed by Johnson though

Watch the Kessler, Jones and Hopkins fights. He was consistently slipping Hopkins rights from around round 4 onwards. He was also slipping Jones right hand leads. He took away Kessler's right cross and right uppercut.

PS. Euro-peon minor-leaguers and washed up former champs are NOT fighters with pulses.

He beat the new Mike Tyson aka Jeff Lacy

LOL my grandmother could slip Roy's punches at this point. Hopkins schooled him. But I give him credit for Kessler but LOL if that is Calzaghe's best win, Dawson's win over Adamek is more impressive

[Toney616]

Calzaghe has never been in the wars that would drain a fighter physically like Roy & Hopkins fool. When was that motha****er ever really challenged or took the tolls of war?

What wars did Jones and Hopkins have?

Roy & Hopkins fought hard against actual #1 contenders.

The only decent mandatory Hopkins had was winky wright at 160. Hopkins refused to fight him and chose Jermain Taylor instead. As for Jones his best mandatories were:
Nunn(1998): Jones vacated the wbc lhw belt to avoid facing him
Tarver (2000):Jones wrote letters to the ibf to avoid having to face him
Tua(2003):

11.06 - David Tua wants Roy Jones. Tua 43-3-1 37ko's, the biggest puncher in the Heavyweight division wants to exercise his right as the highest ranked available fighter in the WBA and fight their Champion, Roy Jones.

In the past Jones has been quick to call out Tua, now there is only silence.

Calzaghe is a fraud, i Cringe every time they say The Great Joe Calzaghe!

Dawson is a whatever fighter but he would have had a great shot at beating Joe....

I cant get that GIF of him windmilling slaps that all Miss against Hopkins outta my head he's terrible!

This was the point I was responding to.

Have never seen Calzaghe adjust in any fight.

I never said they were great wins I said they were fights which highlighted his ability to make adjustments

off topic: Hopkins's didn't school him, unless schooling means headbutting, overacting and holding for 12 rounds
