Joe's status if he wins?

Run that by me one more time (in yank terminology if possible, my dear friend)

He should have worked out you were RIZO as RIZO no longer posts now you have arrived.

That work?

Sorry about that. I just went back and re-read abadger's post, it makes perfect sense.

I guess I read it too fast.

According to this poll, 90% of boxingscene posters thought Calzaghe would be either a legend, great, or of equal status to Hopkins/Winky/Trinidad, were he to beat Hopkins.

no, no, no. The poll question was will he be respected. I voted yes. Obviously he gets an overwhelming yes for the rest of the board as well. I think the poll results might be a lil different if you say "is calzaghe a legend like bhop and trinidad?"

Further, I think the way he fought and how crappy he looked (IMO) against bhop might have changed a few opinions since then as well.

I was manipulating the facts a little there, but if you go back to the original post you will see it does say all that stuff, so it was there for all to see. However I did add the caveat "Whatever you want to call it" so you all have plenty of wriggle room.

well yeah the "Whatever you want to call it" part can mean anything the reader wants it too really. When I read it, I was thinking of Respect (both in the boxing world and general public). But I guess it really doesn't matter he has respect and has had a great career
