Calzaghe is overrated

Your absolutely kidding yourself. Calzaghe is three times the fighter Hopkins is, Roy Jones Junior is and Pavlik are. From middleweight to light heavyweight Calzaghe is the king. The second best fighter in these three divisions is Mikkel Kessler, Calzaghe was a class above Kessler.Calzaghe is way overrated. He has yet to beat an elite boxer. How is he rated in the top 2 or 3 p4p? What has he done? I mean if he is so good, why hasn't he fought a great fighter. Kessler is the best he's fought and Kessler is barely an above average boxer. I'm not saying that Calzaghe is bad, but one of the best p4p? I don't think he belongs in the top 10 even. If he gets into the ring with Hopkins, Pavlik, Taylor, or Wright and beats either one of them, than he belongs, otherwise, he is way too overrated.
Your argument makes no sense. In fact i make the argument that Calzaghe is still under rated considering he is only number 3 on the pound for pound list. That makes a lot more sense then your argument.
Rediculous. None of the fighters you mentioned can even make a fight close with Calzaghe. Watch when he fights B-Hop. There will be a lot of hype but Joe C will win by a very wide UD.Comment

Kessler beat Mundine. And i rate Mundine a good chance of beating Pavlik when they face in the future as SMW. So much so i will start him at favourite. SMW is the second strongest division in the world. Once again your argument makes no sense mate.you really take records that seriously? there are are atleast 100 active fighters with better recrods than hopkins. Does that mean they are all better? Answer no, cuz its not the records, its the oposition that counts. If hopkins fought in Denmark or England all his life, He would be 53-0 instead of 48-4-1.Comment

First of all, Calzaghe is a great fighter, he's not overrated, everyone should know this.
At this time, Joe beats Hopkins in a solid UD. Prime vs Prime? Who knows? I'd back Hopkins
5 people?
Kessler
Lacy
Eubank
Robin Reid
Sakio Bika, Recent winner of contender, has a solid resume, he's no walk in the park.
Not to mention that Joe has over 20 title defenses.
A guy like Calzaghe should be called anything but overrated.
Like someone previously said, "only in boxingscene".
I'm willing to bet all my points, when the fight is official that is.Last edited by Lucky13; 12-31-2007, 06:20 PM.Comment
