Joe Calzaghe the most overrated boxer in history?

[Dan...]

Calzaghe is a very good fighter but definately overrated. His resume, like all fighters from the UK is very padded with many hand-picked opponents. Pretty much all British fighters are this way, its just the way it is. They can make easier money staying at home and fighting fairly average fighters in front of big crowds and big TV audiences than they can if they go and try to scrap it out in the US. Same situation with Mundine in Australia, he has never gone over to the US because he has never needed to. They are just fighting in different markets.

A 6'8 ***** with no boxing skills whatsoever. He survives off of pure size alone, with minimal athletic ability and bad feet. ****, he is damn near the worst champ ever. He ****ing sucks. he is a product of perfect timing. Because in their prime Tyson, Holyfield, Bowe, Holmes, Ali, and Lennox would all of wipe the **** off of their ass with Wlad.

wlad is the most talented heavyweight emanuel steward has seen, more talented than lewis, view my sig

You're obviously a roy jones jr fan but will you admit that Calzaghe/Jones Jr is a weak fight to be happening at this point of Calzaghes career and that he has many advantages over Roy whos only looked so-so in his last couple of fights against mediocre opposition. Trinidad was smaller in weight yet he won like the first 3-4 rounds I believe.

Are you basically calling Wlad a Tye Fields clone?

Yes. Just SLIGHTLY better. He doesnt have ****. Just size and legnth. Remember this, boxing is supposed to be second nature and you react with out thinking. That is a truely skilled fighter. Wlad thinks too much in the ring and every move of his is too calculated. He ****in sucks. Like I said, he is a product of perfect timing.

Never said he was great, I said he is good just like I consider Calzaghe good.

Kessler still hasn't fought anyone while Taylors resume craps all over Kesslers. Kessler would get his ass ****d by Lucian Bute. And thats not a crack on Kessler because Lucian Bute is a good fighter compared to the crap Kessler has fought.

Kessler beat SMW Champion Mundine.

[Rudyo]

Losing to them twice does.

Then Gene Fullmer is better than everyones cherished Sugar Ray Robinson.

[WLAD OWNS]

Yes. Just SLIGHTLY better. He doesnt have ****. Just size and legnth. Remember this, boxing is supposed to be second nature and you react with out thinking. That is a truely skilled fighter.

You just threw your credibility out the window.....****in ******.
