    So will Jones but that doesnt mean anything. Jones wont get the HYPE that Calzaghe brought to beating him even though its the same guy.

    Goes to show how the media can make a fighter seem to be something they are not. People now call Lacy shot, a bum etc etc.... Well what was he then? Same guy just had an undefeated record when fighting Joe and to some peoples logic that makes you world class.. lol

    Contrary to this popular believe, Lacy was just an undefeated, untested, green fighter that got made into something he was not. Same goes for Manfredo. Its like people expect something from them because they fought Joe.... word to ya moms, these dudes ****** to begin with and they suck now, nothings changed. Media hype....

    Froch will be the next victom of being over hyped and made into something he was not. By the time JT is finished with him some people will catch on as to why Joe stayed home behind Frank Warren for 10+ years....

        Well in his defense a lot of fighters face "bums" early on. The problem that people have with Calzaghe is he stayed at home for 10+ years fighting bums before "starting" his career. Which is easily put...

        He fought the over hyped Lacy (to make a name for himself in the states), Kessler (his BEST win to date), Manfredo (???????????), Hopkins (ugly fight but he got a SD with a top legit LHW), Jones of 2008 (retirement fund).......

        That is his career in a nut shell. You can add Old man Eubank in there as that was for his WBO belt. Eubank went on to never win another fight after that.

        But hey he's undefeated right....... its all good not hate.
        He faced BUMS during his PRIME years defending his SMW title. I've been over this a dozen times but Cal**** fans don't get it.

        Just LOOK at his record of defenses (defending a TRINKET belt) between Eubank and Lacy. It's un****inbelievable.

          Roy DID go to Joe and ask for the "money" fight, it was that Johnson or Dawson... who did you think Joe was going to pick....

          Sure is hell wasnt going to be Dawson....

              Doesn't matter. Joe was all too eager to take the fight himself. This is of course after saying Roy was washed up in his book and Pavlik was the real fight.

              Regardless of if Roy begged him (and I know he did) Joe DID CHOOSE ROY YONNNNES. He had other options as the champ. Simple.

                  cause he knows Johnson would come forward and match his punch output. only difference is Johnson would be throwin real punches not slaps. calzaghe wanted no part of that. he wanted to protect his "0"
