    Appreciate it man, I try.

    True. This **** should be in the Classic lounge.

    Anyways- I agree. Something about Joe Calzaghe just irks me. His showboating comes off making him look like a prick, imo.

    Roy showed more heart than he ever has. Probably because he's never really had to. But I'm glad to see it was there.
    Mayweather's showboating cannot hold a candle to Calzaghe's. It reminds me of what Woody Harrelson said to Wesley snipes in "White Men Can't Jump" about the slam-dunk.

    "It's like showboating for the sake of showboating."

      Roy used to showboat a lot too, so I dont feel bad for him honestly.

      It would irk me if it was against my favorite fighter, I'll admit.

        well I give zaggy all the respect he deserves...he dominated Roy and by OUT BOXING him..not by a KO....that was basically a clinic he put on Jones


        My only fear now is all the euroturds will be comming out of the wood-work for the next couple of weeks

          Yeah Roy did, that's what turned me off to a prime Roy.

          I just don't agree with showboating just to rub the other guy's face in ****, and Joe takes it to an entirely different level.

          He drops his hands and puts his chin out in your chest, he drops his hands and does a little dancing jig, he completely turns his back on you as if it's a waste of time to even punch you, he makes that godawful *****-looking sneer whenever you land a punch, etc....

          The people who love Joe **** all over Mayweather whenever he did any showboating at all. True story.
