Calzaghe is overrated

[Ironside]

The thing I hate about Kessler, he's fun to watch, but he's too much of a clean fighter, he doesn't use the dirty tricks in the book at all. That would help him greatly against world class competition.

[D.I.E.S.E.L]

Nope i don't have one racist bone in my body.

If you look at Winky fighting at super middleweight or whatever they fought at, that wasn't his weight. And Hopkins he is fantastic at his age, but he brawls his way to wins.

Kessler is a far superior fighter than Hopkins. And Calzaghe superior to Kessler.

I was joking about the black thing...But anyways I'm not saying it would be an easy win either way. You say Calzaghe is superior as if he'll make Hopkins look like nothing.








Hopkins is going to make Calzaghe his *****.

damn, that would've been an easy bet for me. like picking apples.

You better hang around after Calzaghe whoops Hopkins ass. This is going to be another one of those Jeff Lacy threads ROFL. Where crazy yanks have a strange idea their fighter is going to beat the unbeatable Calzaghe.

On second thoughts, big up Hopkins all you want but don't go saying Calzaghe beat an out of prime Hopkins and shouldn't of even fought him in the first place.

You know you don't believe that, if you do then bet real money on Hopkins then ****** points. You know Calzaghe is going to beat that ass of Hopkins, your heart wants Hopkins to win but you know your brain and your wallet says Calzaghe.

I can't see Hopkins lasting more than 6 rounds with Calzaghe honestly. Calzaghes work rate troubles 30 year olds at the top of there game. Im pretty sure Hopkins is past it mate.

Besides Mayweather I think Calzaghe has the best fitness in the sport of boxing, it's amazing.

I take what I see seriously. Kessler is an excellent fighter who had several title defenses. I picked him to beat Calzaghe, but life is all about making adjustments. Anyone that has seen Kessler fight knows that you are dead wrong. His opposition may not be as good as Hopkins, but it still puts him miles above average. And BTW, I doubt that there are 100 active fighters that have won 48 times, period.

I agree fully with the statement except for the last sentence. Tony Booth has 50 wins, if he can manage to win 50 times I think there can be 100 guys that have that many wins, and probably even more losses.

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.

it think Joe is overated by many but that is not to say he is'nt a special fighter he is a very special fighter IMO however he is overated cause of the oposition he has beaten & the acclaim he has got is over the top

There are lots of great Legendry fighters that are overated but that dont mean they aint great fighters just maybe that people Overate them when they access there career's

Well I'm glad you liked the part of the post with substance. However I really do think you'd have trouble finding 100 active fighters with 48 or more wins. Not that I expect you to waste your time looking...

Calzaghe is garbage!! **** him! Stop overating the guy. Lots of fighter who accomplished more then him and yet people put him in 3rd p4p fo no reason at all. Beating Lacy and Kessler don't mean ****!!!
