Are you guys serious? A washed up Roy Jones and B-Hop knock Calzaghe down........now imagine what Hagler does to him...........


    So what he got knocked down he came back and dominated a fighter NEVER loses his punch.

    I would also like to add Wright, Tarver, Calzaghe, Pavlik is Hopkins best career run his only loss CALZAGHE.

WHat a ****ing shame. If he had real talent we will never know. Most pros at 26 have met and surpassed the hardest challenges Joe has faced: prime but unproven Kessler and hypejob (as we would later see many times) Lacy. Not good enough imo.


      Kessler = unproven yet Dawson isnt?

      Kessler fought Calzaghe which dominates Chads loss to Johnson.

              He's the best of this generation, nor is he in the top 20 of all time.

                    “Joe would have worked in any era,” said Stallone, who was ringside in Las Vegas in April when Calzaghe won the light-heavyweight belt from another American legend, Bernard Hopkins. “He’s like one of these classical 1940s fighters, a Fritzie Zivic, who could go 15 rounds comfortably, and he doesn’t have to power you out with one shot because he’s in unbelievable shape. He will sit there and pepper the hell out of you with an unorthodox style. This hasn’t been seen in America for some time, so we dismiss it because everyone in America expects this thudding, crashing, bone-jarring punching style - supposedly this determines if a man is tough. It’s not true. What Joe does makes him a tougher man in my estimation because he puts himself in the teeth of the fire for a longer period to achieve his goal. That’s balls. Joe is one of the best boxers of his generation, no question.”






                    Nigel Benn and Rocky Balboa call him ATG best in 20yrs.

                    Now should i listen to them or the white boxer hating board?
                    I like to form my own opinion not base it on what a actor said.
                    To me Joe was good but not the best boxer of his generation.

                      Are you mad !? They may have had Calzaghe down but could they keep him there ???
                      he had hoppkins crawling around on all fours gasping for breath and asking the ref for a point and a time out !PMSL
                      I think Calzaghes fussy none stop style would of had the beating of most of the modern Middles /supper middles !
