ADVANED POST: If Calzaghe loses to Roy, he was overrated

[Ray*]

Man, I'm from Louisville and I'll be the first to tell you Ali was the biggest hypocrite of an athlete that ever lived. Not serving his country in Nam was disgusting.

But we only judge BOXERS by their BOXING. We aren't judging Joe as a person. Ali was a great fighter because he proved it. Joe is a joke because he has avoided competition his entire career.

You just love guys because they're white, not based on actual boxing. This is a boxing forum you ****ing creep

Thats the thing that i dont get, We (The fans) are not politicians...he need to look at boxers with a boxing eye not a colour or whatever they do outside eye.

Nailed it.

I can't stand Ali because he was an arrogant, overrated loud-mouth who had no love for his country and no respect for his opponents. He called great fighters like Norton and Patterson bums, and Frazier an Uncle Tom and a gorilla.

You're breaking my heart over here.

Obvious set up. And you walked straight into it. Dope got roped.

i cant have respect for JC i think he's a good boxer, but he only has 2 really respectable wins. lacy (who was way overrated at the time anyways) kessler (JC best and hardest opponent to date and a great performace by him) and after tonight against another 40+ yr old past his prime. if he would have taken a couple risks stepped up proved his worth and his place as a p4p atg then it woulda been a different story. jc will always have the stain on his legacy of avoiding tougher fights to retain his 0.

the same can be said for mayweather, i think he's a spectacular boxer but when we look back what are we going to say about his legacy . . . for whatever reason he retired the most plausible is that he was avoiding the true challenges at ww.

it's very hard to overrate ali. very hard.

split his resume between 2-3 fighters and they'll all be considered greats or atg.

Ali as a person ******. That's not debatable. Nobody is denying he was a real piece of trash outside the ring and a disgrace to his country.

But as a fighter, he's the greatest heavyweight of all time and probably the 2nd best boxer of all time.

And that's all that matters to boxing fans. You want to talk politics or baby mama drama, do it somewhere else girly man.
