    Joe wins most of his fights because he's a superior boxer to everyone else?

      What makes the list solid then? The fact that it's 5 names long?

      And what does it matter if he fought them or not? In most of those cases, the comments were made BEFORE the fight.

      Also, cite your sources. Where were these comments made? On TV? In a newspaper? Which one?

          Yes, he's a superior to boxer to Kessler and Lacy, which is why he beat them in the way he did. He beat Mitchell because he landed more hard flush shots in the 2nd round, however that was down to a number of factors, not just workrate.

          I think the Manfredo fight was a joke, but Calzaghe is a superior boxer.

          I don't think Calzaghe beats Hopkins without workrate, but that still only makes you comment 20% true at most IMO.

                Most of that post i would agree with, apart from the bit in bold. Especially the 20% bit.

                But it's your opinion so fair play.

                    I said 20% because there are 5 boxers and only 1 of them would've beaten him if his workrate was less ie. workrate was only the deciding factor in 20% of the fights mentioned.
