Who was Joe Blow's best opponent of his career?

[Guest]

I ask because I've just got the latest issue of "Lazy Yanks Who Can't Be Bothered To Do Any Research Monthly" (I'm on subscription) and it says Jeff Lacy.

I assume this is just because Lacy was the only titlist (after winning the vacant IBF belt against Syd Vanderpool and then defending it against has beens and never weres) but I'm more interested in who was actually the BEST, rather than a boxrec statistic.

Several of Joe Blow's opponents gave him reasonably competitive match-ups, though this could be due to varying different factors, such as outside concerns (he was terrible when he had the divorce) and how "up" for the opponent he was.

But Jeff Lacy WASN'T the best man Joe Blow faced, not by a LONG way. So the question is... who was?

If Jeff Lacy doesn't stack up to the best fighter Joe's fought...

I think you get the idea.

Nice to see another Calzaghe thread though.

Probably Robin Reid.

Chris Eubank

Richie Woodhall.

Chris Eubank

Nah, he'd been a shadow of his former self for four or five years.

I say Richie because he had successful shoulder surgery before the Calzaghe fight, the first time ever, and so was expected to rekindle some of that great form he showed in those European title fights on BBC (before the shoulder went) and I remember at the time was really expected to test big Joe with his shoulder being fit for the first time in about six years. And Richie did show his class throughout, but was Joe was just too strong for him in the end.

Stop replying to my threads, Canadian trash, I'm not interested in anything you have to say.

Canada is famous for:

1. Jim Carrey

2. Pamela Anderson

3. Moose buggery

4. **** all else.



Think about this when you're trying to trash a culturally superior country.

Incidentally, I had a better standard of English education than you when I was ten years old. You ought to be ashamed, dumbo.

[Easy-E]

I cant think of anyone.

No, wait Robin Read.

Uh uh, it was a shot Chris Eubank.

No no no! What are you guys talking about. It was Omar Sheika....
