        Doesn't take a genius to realise Joe killed a legend in many peoples eyes within and outside of boxing.

        Doesn't mean he has to agree, but he still killed this character most hailed as a legend.

          Yeah. But i doubt he would do as well if he had some opponents not in their 40's yet. I don't have anything against Calzaghe except perhaps that no other fighter ever got considered p4p anything for beating such old competition. If beating a 43 year old Hopkins by split decision after being dropped in the first round makes you p4p anything then i'll startin calling out Ali and beat him to get past them all...

            Like Mikkel Kessler or Jeff Lacy or Chris Eubank?

              Kessler was 7 years younger than Calzaghe and in his prime yet Calzaghe won.
              The same age difference 7 years between Hopkins and Calzaghe. Difference is both Hopkins and Calzaghe are not in their prime.

                I respect Joe C as a fighter but I don't really like or dislike him. He ain't done nothin to inspire any emotion from a lot of people.

                  No, he said he was a legend killer then said Bernard wasn't a legend. And he isn't, cos Joe Calzaghe killed the legend!

                    The only people who have a strong dislike to him are some Americans and some racist English who can't come to terms with the best fighter from the UK being Welsh.

                      You can find names like that on Jones and Hopkins resumes as well. Pudwill came in as a late replacement, he wasn't the chosen opponent.

                      Salem was a tough cookie, by the way, and one of the dirtiest fighters I've ever seen.

                      Mario Veit was 30-0 and was the interim WBO super middleweight champion. Joe KOed him in round one.
