      Joke Calslappy is a feather-fisted journeyman that looks like someone with a little sugar in their blood slapping at cobwebs. He spent his whole career in Europe fighting ordinary journeyman, finally steps up and fights a 43 year old former great (who he is floored in the 1st round by and looks terrible against) and people are trying to argue this guy should be #1 p4p? Puhleeeeeeze.

          I don't hate Joe Calzaghe. I respect what he did in his career even tho a couple of years ago i had never heard about him. The first fight i saw from was his win agaisnt kessler, which was impressive considering kessler is a monster.

          But like other people said, i just can't stand the way he fights, his punches are more like slaps and his style is more about making his opponents look bad than anything else.


          So yeah, i don't hate Joe Calzaghe, but i just can't bring myself to enjoy watching him fight.

            you're basing this statement on a bunch of jerkoffs on an interent forum who probably started watching boxing when mayweather fought hatton.

              And with that statement brings me to this. If Joe calzaghe is so great, you wouldn't need approval from Americans. They would know.

              I'll use Ali as an example.
              Ali is a great and is respected. We don't need the Brits approval do we?????????? When a fighter is great you don't need to sit there and defend him 24/7-365. You would just know and you can leave it at that.

              So that brings me back to my original point. This thread is just another CRY BABY Joe Calzaghe fan and this thread only fuels the fire. Its just the SAME **** different day type of story.....

              lol, Are you guys done BEGGING for that RESPECT??????? You gain respect NOT CRY an expect to try and PROVE based on your OWN opinions that Calzaghe deserves it. Like I said Actions speak louder than words, if Calzaghe is great his ACTIONS will speak for him not a bunch of CRY BABIES BEGGING FOR IT!

              Are we done yet???????

                joe is undefeated, even if it's mostly against "journeymen" there's still a zero in the loss category.

                i respect joe, but TBH as a boxer he really hasnt fought anyone that is proven, MAYBE lacy. He fought bernard when he's 43 then he calls out RJJ gtfo of here. he calls himself a legend killer, easy to call himself that when the legend is already dead when he fights em.

                it always seems to be like this, people that like joe defend him like he's their damn father and people that hate joe act like he ****** their mom.

                for me to consider joe to be one of the ATG he needs to fight a young and hungry and pavlik fits the bill.

                  EVERYONE'S too sensitive about there Joey. They get all DEFENSIVE anytime someone believes different from there "OWN" opinion. lighten up and except the fact that you CANT convenes EVERYONE.
                  WESS you mouth off criticising Calzaghe all day like you know about him and his career. Yet time and time again you have things completely wrong, often factually. I've posted many a time only correcting you. A) You don't accept your wrong B) You make out it's being touchy.

                  So it makes you look like an idiot persistently saying what you do, and saying Joe fans are touchy. No, most are just being decent enough to correct you a lot of the time, because your a fool whom isn't educated on the boxing area's you claim to know about often, and this is glaringly obvious all over the forums mate I'm afraid.

                  Some Calzaghe fans are a little lame or alt's, but tha'ts true of other fighters and many on the forums. If you don't realise this then your judgement is worse than I'd thought. You really need to get this through your head dude, I know it's hard.

                    You're always a funny guy too! Thanks for being a clown of amusement! Think what you want. I don't bother with you half the time but This time I figured I would entertain you and reply to your "sensitive" self. I know it just pisses you off.

                    I hope you feel better now that you got that out.... silly guy!
                    I ALWAYS find YOU hilarious! thanks silver you are the best!

                      LOL, a prime example in the reply - who could ask for better. Again you think I'm pissed off, I have thicker skin than that young man don't you worry about that. LMAO, what a mindset of self compliments you have dear boy.

                      Point I made WESS is I've personally factually corrected you many a time and seen others do as much - and you still rant on about things you clearly don't know about. That's not just on Calzaghe either. I'm not gona waste my time listing links, but even a few weeks ago I recollect you ranting on about a topic with such scrappy knowledge of the basic facts it was like the ramblings of a miss beauty queen talking about world peace.

                      So you trying to criticise my knowledge, some Calzaghe fans whom I've also seen correct YOU, and trying to appear whiter than white and credible is what's ironically hilarious and clown like.
