    How Americans overrate there greats?

    Hagler couldn't KO (and lost to) Watts & Manroe who are journeyment at best, Antuofermo a gd all draw and a close match vs a lightweight in Duran, but somehow KO's Calzaghe whos never been knocked out and fights at a higher weight. But sorry thats clutching at straws, thats like saying Turpin would KO Mayweather its just crazy. Dont get me wrong Hagler was a great fighter with great ko potential but saying he would KO Calzaghe easily when hes never been ko'd and a weight above is just ******. If Duran can cause problems who is Hattons size why would Calzaghe struggle? Duran was amazing but hes no middleweight.

        I won't get over it because some comparisons are ******, how do people think someone who struggled with a lightweight will KO Calzaghe whos never been close to being KO'd and a weight above? just doesnt make sense.

            Well hatton had never been ko'd before he got to Floyd. It's just people's opinions. I think Hagler would defeat Calzaghe, even tough im a big Joe fan. But i understand what your saying. People act like it's a fact Hagler would ko Joe. That does upset me as well people act like its a fact
