How come Calzaghe deserves Respect but Mayweather doesn't?

[Xplosivo]

they both are respected.

I guess you weren't here when Floyd retired. You have seen the forum, filled with Puertoricans and Mexicans, or Cotto and Margarito fans.

Thank you for understanding my point. Karma sent... Either respect both, or none. I have seen Calzaghe stans who disrespect Mayweather yet suckoff Calzaghe and vice versa as well. That is showing double standards

So would you say the reverse is also true?

That it's hypocritical to Disrespect Calzaghe while sucking off PBF?

PBF is a 6 time champion in 5 weight classes, P4P #1 boxer for 3 years in a row. thats why. even though he avoided certain fighters( cotto, Marg ), calzaghes resume' is **** compared to Floyds

I criticise both of them for retiring rather than fighting when the opponents were available. Go and look at my posts from the past

It was a question, not a statement.

Both are respected, but i feel that both are receiving too much credit giving thier mediocre resume's.

Mediocre resume! I don't even like Calzaghe but I can atleast say he has a good resume. I'm guessing it only takes a mediocre resume to reach ATG status?

Exactly, nothing against the thread starter atleast he was as unbiased as can be but in no way can Calzaghe's resume/ accomplishment be compared to Mayweathers

Out of 46 fights, he was only able to fight 3-4 note worthy fights. How can u say that is anything more than mediocre. Too much emphasis is placed on his undefeated record.

Well your opinion. I agree he is overated, just that I felt his resume was ATLEAST on the good side. We'll just have to disagree on that

Which I agree too.

If you check my past quotes, I have said in the past Floyd should have fought Margarito and Cotto regardless of he can beat them or not, i have criticised him, the same way I mock Calzaghe not fighting Dawson, Abraham or Pavlik.

The thing is Mayweather is better than Calzaghe in skills and resume, but still I feel sorry that peopled bashed Mayweather a lot yet the same people who bashed his retirement are tickling Calzaghe's balls.
