Joe Calzaghe Was Impressive Enough To Win the Number 1 p4p Spot

[ИATAS]

I stopped reading after "Joe Calzaghe Was Impressive."

Be real with yourself - Calzaghe got the W, which is all that really matters, but did not win impressively and quite honestly, looked pretty bad in the ring.

Mayweather and Pacquaio still deserve #1, and #2 spots.

Joe won 9 out of the 12 rounds.....not his fault judges can't judge a fight. Hopkins always makes fights look bad, it seemed pretty good being at the fight though! throwing 1 or 2 good shots every round shouldn't give you the round I can't believe how some people have Hopkins winning or even drawing the fight. Boxing P4P & The Islander on youtube have him as number 1 now, I think it's time. Pacman should of lost his last fight and Mayweather should be dropped for taking rematches instead of fighters like Cotto.

People shouldnt keep bringing BH age into it! He was the best light heavyweight American. JC beat him and in my opinion JC had an off night. WHy keep saying he didnt beat BH impressively? He beat Kessler impressively. He beat Lacy impressively. He beat BH. Maybe not impressively but what boxer is always impressive in every fight at JCs age. Fighting the very best the world has to offer.
He was fighting in the BH backyard in a new weight. JC is allowed an off night. Doesnt mean to say he would struggle that much against BH again.

Can't talk about BHop's age but you can use JC's age to defend him. Nice dose of hypocrisy. I'm glad I don't have to defend the boxing pride of Britain over and over again. "He slap's, has no punching power, who has he fought, resume...." I'm tired of responding to Calzaghe homers. From now on I'm gonna let you guys toot your own horn. Britain is athletically inferior to the United States(to be fair so is every other country) and many others. I'll let you guys hang on to the small amount of athletes you produce. Bring back Lennox!!!

What an arrogant joke you are, United States suck at team games, most of your so called best athletes have been found to have taken steriods just look at Marion Jones, Tim Montgomery....

Against all odds fighting for the very first time out of his country and in a new weight class
In las vegas the most corrupt city in boxing against the localist judges calzaghe managed to beat up hopkins so badly the judges had no other choice but to grant him the decision
He has earned the number one p4p spot because he defeated a legend who was p4p number 4 previous to their fight sure he was old but many here on boxing scene were picking bhop to expose calzaghe
But once against good prevails and the racist hopkins got what he deserved and was outboxed in every round except the first
Calzaghe landed twice the punches that hopkins did and thats why this victory is so important he dominated hopkins like no one else ever has
For dominating a p4p boxer and being 45-0 there is no doubt in my mind Calzaghe is the true p4p king

Pound for Pound baby. Pound for pound at missing shots.

According to CompuBox sure. compubox is a bunch of guys watching the fight. As you can see in the gifs, he's clearly missing a lot.

most of the ones he's missing to the arms, back of the head, shoulders are counted in that fight. Which is not impressive. But hey if you think scoring pro fights like the Amateurs is cool, then it might be for you.

ooooo great comeback... Stick to the tread title and dont bring pac in here, he shoudlnt even be mentioned in the same sentece than Calzaghe... He is an actual legend killer not a legend killer wanna be.

imma have to agree on that

usa might be superior in some sports but in boxing mexico is far superior
there are more mexican champions than americans all those mexican americans robert guerrero steven luevano david diaz consider themselves mexicans because they have mexican blood cuz their parents were born in mexico they come to the ring with the mexican flag and talk spanish in their corners
