    People wouldn't be so pissed if Calzaghe didn't say he was going to fight Jones Jr and retire, but he did. That is the ****tiest win to retire to, and no one will be impressed when he beats Roy Jones Jr. I'd be more impressed if he ko'd roy in the first round.

      So if Calzaghe changed his mind, decided to fight Pavlik and beat him convincingly like Lacy and Kessler, would you still be calling him overrated?

        How can anyone call Calzaghe overrated if he was able to beat Pavlik? Have you seen what Pavlik has done, and some moronic nutt-huggers compare Pavlik to Lacy? ****ign Pavlik destroys fighters, Lacy has never destroyed the opposition Pavlik has

          I agree that Pavlik is deserving of a fight with Calzaghe if that's what he wants but Calzaghe also deserves the right to choose the best offer on the table without being accused of ducking.
          no to mention Brook down Bronco McKart

              Will the bandwagon for Calzaghe be around when he retires after beating a shot roy jones jr and probably doesn't even look too impressive at doing it?

He gets credit for his two wins over Taylor, which were impressive but Kessler and Hopkins are both better then Taylor at this point.
                    Right of course, Hopkins is better than Taylor, who he lost to twice consecutivly...

                      That would be out of this world ridiculous. Would never happen though, surely...
