    Just admit you have a little man crush on the "not so average Joe"

      regarding his slapps they are strategic:
      in his biography he explains this.... he does them to distract his opponents... look at against kessler..... he threw a bunch of slaps..... and then in the middle of the combinations.... he throws a hard body punch that kessler isnt expecting and lands it and stuns him and wins the fight,... perfect example of when they paid off

        Tarver does the same thing... well, the Tarver that could pull the trigger I mean.

            An undefeated, HOF-bound, multi-division champion BOXER who doesn't know how to punch. Yes, that seems likely.

            I'd like to see him fight Dawson though.

                this isnt an idiotic story.... calzaghe said this in his book that was written before the calzaghe fight.

                  In the thread, there is no 'love him' option. It's Great fighter. I use the term because it simplifies things, or I hoped it would anyway. Lol.

                    calzaghe is overrated. the only people that think he's an ATG are people in the UK. outside the UK he's just a decent fighter
