Joe Calzaghe Calls it Quits, Announces Retirement

[Chr0nic]

Much, much less controversy in Joe's fight with Hopkins than there was in Lewis's fight with Vitali.

So Lewis is not I true fighter I guess....

no there was'nt, but i guess it's an english thing

Bull****.

Klitschko was STOPPED, due to blows that busted his mouth, cheekbone and nearly ripped out his eye.

Hopkins lost on a SPLIT DECISION.

**edit**

And looked the exact same as when he entered the ring.

At least he knows when to retire. Others should take a leaf out of his book and avoid getting ko'd by bums.

Well done Joe, you had a good career. Yes, you could have fought better opposition earlier, but at least you never lost to average fighters.

46(32) - 0
Won the WBC, WBO, IBF, WBA belts at SMW
Won the Ring Magazine belt at SMW, and LHW
22 SMW title defences
Noteable wins (Hopkins, Kessler, Lacy, Mitchell, Sheika, Reid, Eubank)
Undefeated

My thoughts exactly. Too many posts from people who are either haters or the opposite extreme.

No, you're just blind.

Thanx for the offer though...I'll pass - I'm straight.

God bless joe
AND GOD BLESS THE UNITED KINGDOM

(when americans do it it really pisses me of)

I find annoying as well.

Haters "hate" the fact that he hasn't lost.

And I love the fact that "THAT" gets to them.

I don't mind him preserving his '0', but I do have a problem him leaving with his best win being against Kessler. Hypejob Lacy had fought nobody and Hopkins/Jones were way too over the hill. Joe is not an ATG without more risky wins under his belt. So , I'm glad that gets to you.

Awsome we don't have to hear from this bum again

I rewatched Vitali v Lewis the other day. I don't care what the circumstances around that fight were all I know is WHAT A FIGHT. One of the best heavyweight contests I have ever seen.
