      Indeed. It was very well done and finally an article that is just looking at his career subjectively instead of the usual boring crap about not fighting Pavlik. I liked it.

            I like Joe because he isn't American.If he was a fat yank the media would overhype him and his fans would only talk about what other fat yanks he has beaten.Being a Euro has benifits like free healthcare and a lower obesity rate with a higher exchange rate.How can you dislike a Welsh Dragon?I can't even If I joke around about him.

Lacey, Kessler, Calzaghe, these were all good wins for Joe but not great. Those are 3 fighters in 45 fights. Joe spent 10 years being a euro fighter and to put him in the p4p top 5 you are mental. What means more than if you win is how you win. Pavlik would punch his ****ing lights out and Joe knows it.
                Youre reasoning is ******.

                Jones spent his whole career being a yank fighter. To put him in the top 5 p4p would be mental. He never went to europe and he never fought at legendary venues like Wembley Arena.

                ^^^^^ If I believed that I would be ******.

                Calzaghe fights in Europe because he lives there. It's simple geography. Also, it's hard enough for a euro fighter to get a title shot against an American. Joe was a world champion. Why should a world champion have to take a step out of his backyard? Why didnt no top American fighters want to travel to Britain to fight Joe? I will tell you why, because they all knew who Joe was, and all knew how dangerous he was. I have respect for Lacy because he did what no American boxers do, and that have the balls to fight outside their own backyard.
