    Christ, people overrate this guy's resume.
    if he made the weight it's all good

      His best wins are against welters?

      Tarver, Pavlik, Wright, Glen Johnson are excellent wins. Stop exaggerating.

        He worked his ass off, I'll give him credit for that.

            He sounds like a sound individual. You should strive to become just like him.

            With a little more practice I think you could pull it off.

              Ha!! "Joe Blow" Was that his real nickname?

              I really didn't care too much for Calzaghe, but yes he should have done a little more. I would have paid to see the Dawson vs. Calzaghe fight. That would have been interesting. Two southpaws with decent power?

                PS. Hopkins Is ranked higher than Joe. I just hate when people make out as if their resumes are light-years apart.

                  Well, look at the caliber of notable wins. They are miles apart.

                    I am glad you put a question mark after decent power when referring to Calzaghe.

                      How so?

                      I appreciate that Joe didn't get outboxed by Jermain Taylor twice or easily UD'd by Roy Jones in his prime, but where's this stellar comp?
