    Fact of the matter is he has a padded record.

    Reason why Hatton gets more respect is because he fought Mayweather, would have fought DLH and will probably fight Pac.

    Hatton was protect earlier on when he was with Warren, but left him and his career was better.

    With Calzaghe about to retire, only then has he fired Warren. Warren has expsoed Calzaghe's flaws and desires to pull out of fights.

    I'm not looking at race or anything like that, anyone who does is an idiot. I'm saing how it is

      Everyone has a padded record, it's how you progress you're fighter to world championship status, you line him up against a string of bums, each slightly better than the last.

      I would also like you to point out which fighters have called Calzaghe out over the years, and hear your views as to why he didn't fight them.

      If his record is so padded, you should be able to do this with ease, so go ahead, impress me.

        Are serious? I find it hard to believe.

        So let's get this right... you like Hatton because he lost to Mayweather and for who he might fight in the future?

        Who doesn't have a padded record? Hopkins fighting Morade Hakkar instead of Joe Calzaghe back in 2002? Marvin Hagler fighting a dude with 38 losses for his 45th pro fight back in 1978?

        Warren hasn't done ****, btw. Nobody ****ing believes what he says anyway. I mean, do you believe Warren when he says "Prime Roy Jones never wanted any part of Joe Calzaghe, he always priced himself out of a fight."?

          I do actually, but only because I have heard Roy say the same thing.

            (personally I like him as a boxer and a fighter and has much respect to this guy specially for LACY and KESSLER fights but he is taking alot of flack and diserespect from a lot of people here in NSB...)


            LOL

            Your an idiot and 31YO, jeez.

            Its Calzaghes style he did it throughout his career just as Roy did just against worse opposition.

              Calzaghe got flack and disrespect from the same people even before he fought Hopkins and Jones.

                People are still bitter about the Jones fight? Holy ****.

                The tables were turned for once (and once only), so it's no surprise that Jones fans are angry about it, but really it's pathetic. Roy got a taste of his own medicine, and the hardcore Jones fans were expecting Roy to be the one showboating against Calzaghe (which they would have loved). Nobody said **** when Roy was showboating against dudes that clearly shouldn't have even been in the same ring as him back in the day.

                Don't get me wrong, I am a Jones fan (not a fanatic) but I never liked his showboating, most of it was irritating, but I would never ramble on about it for months after a fight.

                    Everyone knows being a black american gets you a free ride on these forums, anyone who criticises you is automatically racist.

                    White fighters (especially non-american white fighters) have it harder here, FACT.
                    That's BS and you know it.. Black people having it easy? PLEASE!!! GTFOH
