Joe Calzaghe should be arrested for beating up pensioners

I don't believe that you think Pavlik can beat him, I think you say it just to annoy people like me.

its irrelevant if i think Pavlik can beat him i could reel of a huge list of WW and pick PBF to defeat all of them but it dont make it so and it certainly dont mean he can duck em all and face no criticism for it

[abadger]

its easier to dominate a poor division than it is step out of your comfort zone and take on real challenges like Mosley ,Dela Hoya ,Hopkins

and all those fighters happen to be better than Calzaghe they all have loses cause of the competition they have faced where as Joe does 'nt for the very same reason

Hopkins has almost exactly the same career as Calzaghe, and please don't tell me about his incredible wins over Trinidad and De La Hoya. Oscar is a multi weight champ so I'm not going to cry over that one, and as for Mosley, he may have left his original division (easier for lower weight fighters I might add, and yes I know Jones and Toney did it) but he isn't a better boxer than Joe.

Did you know 2/3 people to KD Calzaghe were American and the other one lives over here.

[RodBarker]

Shame then that Hopkins had the Ring Belt and was P4P.

Also, tell me a boxer who would have given Calzaghe a harder time.

Jones is a different story though.

Please see the second line of my post, which you ignored.

But what has that got to do with your first statement .

He'll face Pavlik, I'm sure. Not sure who else he's 'ducked'. I know you'll say Jones but I don't think it was quite like that. Who knows if they could have made the fight?

we will never find out will we Joe aint interested in challenges thats why he never stepped outta a ****e division and fought awfull mandatory challengers for years and stayed in Wales to do it and it is also the reason he wants not part of the Ghost and the reason he is fighting another 40 year old lol

he is a risk assesment expert Hopkins was 43 when Calz decided to step up and that is why he was so dismissive of Hopkins in the build and kept repeating he is a 40 year old man cause he knew he was not fighting a fighter that could stay with him for 12 and he was right Hopkins age was the telling factor otherwise he would of got his ass kicked

Lacy, Kessler and Hopkins were fights than many believed he would lose. He has shown several times that he is willing to take on tough challenges.

[abadger]

But what has that got to do with your first statement .

What it means is that Hopkins was the best and most credible opponent Joe could have faced by a country mile, and proved it in the ring.

[DanielTurcotte3]

Well it is.

Ricky Hatton = The same
Mikkel Kessler = Doing the same
Chris Eubank = The same
Nigel Benn = The same

By the way greaattt Sig Homeboy......One of the best prize fights of the decade....and one of my ATF fights....Toney Jirov in 03.....At Foxwoods by the way fight in my neck of the woods

[HomeBoys]

What I find strange is Terrible... slags off 1 european when all the fighters are the same over there besides Haye.

Hopkins had a better resume than Calzaghe and would of beat Calzaghe in his prime the evidence we saw when he was 43 tells u enough about that scenario ,Hopkins is a better fighter and has losses cause he fought the best untill he was 43

yeah it would be easier for lower weight fighters than Calz what a cop out if Mosley had stayed at LW he would have been dominent for years ,great champions take on great challenges

Calzaghe better than Toney thats a matter of a opinion ,there is no one on Calzaghe record that could of beaten James Toney no one ,Kessler would of been made to look a fool with a prime Toney as would Eubank as for rest lol
