    LOL

    Does Joe agree with Loew about throwing the ****ing double jab.

    I think he is spot on, I'm kind of surprised the went for Pavlik, it's a bit harsh. I wish he didn't.

      Of course Calzaghe was always going to gloat over the Pavlik loss.

        Joe C woulda beaten Pavlik at 168, so he can talk all he wants.

            I really think Calzaghe has been frustrated over all the talk about him fighting Pavlik. I'd say Hopkins win with speed, imagine Calzaghe who is like 100 times faster, would've been a great fight, one more of those Lacy, Kessler fights.

            I think that what he says is correct. I really see Roy Jones Jr. be eliminated by the best Joe Calzaghe we've ever seen.

              I agree... i think he would have made pavlik look like lacy. Either way i find the trash talking very entertaining and funny. Pavlik brought it to himself by talking alot of **** about Joe C. If i was Cal i wouldnt stop talking about Pavlik either.

                Calzaghe's showing a little wit. I like the way he responded to Hopkins right after the "white boy" comment and the double jab comment was well-done. Come on, you know if James Toney said that you'd be dying.

                  What pisses me off about calz is that he keeps talking about pavlik never facing anyone good when he beat taylor twice. I think you put taylor and calz in the ring together and taylor would dominate him both physically and skills wise.

                    Just because Hopkins beat Pavlik does NOT mean Calzaghe would. Hopkins has destroyed fighters (Pavlik, Tarver) who have beaten fighters who have beaten Hopkins (Taylor I & II, Roy Jones Jr). It doesn't mean that because Hopkins beat him that Calzaghe can. Tarver beat Jones twice yet Hopkins dominated Tarver. Pavlik beat Taylor twice yet Hopkins dominated Pavlik. The one thing these fighters have in common though is that they fought eachother and didnt talk about it (Calzaghe). Dont talk about it.. be about it. Just because you beat a fighter doesnt mean you can beat everybody he beat. The only way to prove that is in the ring. Thats why you (Calzaghe) are not a legend. You look for validation of your own accomplishments from what somebody else does instead of fighting them all. When you retire you cant say you "fought them all" like a legend does.
                    Best post of the thread, I co-sign. It's funny to me tho how all the UK fans talked down on hopkins when he ran his mouth saying he needed to have more class like Calzaghe does, but now that its joe running his mouth they condone it.

                      I should put you in my new signature to allow everyone to marvel at that wisdom you disperse. 100 times faster that Hopkins? hahahaha. When Hopkins threw back, he was acually faster than Joe, so hold that stuff back newbie. The Jones fight will show you how just above average hand speed Calzaghe has. Joe already displayed his best fight with Lacy. That will never happen to the likes of Jones, trust in that.
