    You have issues.

    What's with the personal insults? I guess you are finding it difficult to converse in a rational manner?

      It's hard for some Cal haters to be rational when discussing him, they will do anything and everything to discredit him and get all upset when people use silly things like facts and objectivity.

        Fine. If he wants to carry on like that, I will continue to report his posts.

        EDIT: And it worked, he got banned. I win.

          Am I alone in wondering who all these people supposedly claiming Calzaghe has an 'iron chin' actually are? I can't recall even the biggest Calzaghe fans here (or 'nuthuggers', depending on your point of view) doing that.

          The simple fact is we don't know, although it's unlikely anybody going 46-0 is likely to have a glass chin. So he's been knocked down; that means bugger all as in all cases he has recovered quickly and gone on to win.. not a trait of the glass chinned. The only people you tend to positively identify as iron-chinned are those who tend to get hit a lot (Froch springs to mind in the division) - which Calzaghe does not.

            he has heart and recuperation abilities, but his chin is average. Roy almost knocked him out, Hopkins hurt him a few times and knocked him down to. Roy was past it, Hopkins has never been a KO puncher.

                Nope, it's the sensible way of dealing with trolls.

                  Oh, rubbish... try watching the fight rather than reading Daggum's gibberish. He was knocked down, but was fully recovered within 5 seconds of standing up.

                    No, I've seen quite a few people say he's got an iron chin. I mean, I'm a hater and all so this may seem like I'm, er, hating but truthfully, alot of people claim his chin to be granite.

                    Before Hops/RJJ, there were alot of people, even non-nuthuggers, who thought it was iron. And even since then, people have said the same on here, reasoning his recuperative powers after the KDs prove it even further.

                    I mean, in those ridiculous threads discussing a Wlad vs Calzaghe match-up, his fans actually cited his chin a reason why he had a good chance. If you don't believe me, look those threads up.

                    Personally, I think his chin is pretty good. Not as amazing as alot of people thought, but it's very solid, IMHO. His recuperation powers are very good.

                    Anyway, back to your original point, I would say that the original post and thread is not some fanciful claim from a hater trying to make Calzaghe fans look ridiculous - ALOT of his fans do think his chin is granite. Seen it been said plenty of times.

                      he was fully recovered before he even hit the ground.
