Why do you hate Calzaghe?

[Idgas]

i don't hate, i jut don't like.

don't like his style, don't like his attitude, don't like his personality. he might be a good guy, but he seems like a jerk in the ring.

[Cleto_Reyes]

I think Carl froch can take him. Calzaghe is too overatted for barely beat an off night hopkins and Washed up Roy

[Kris Silver]

Clegg is good. The only one to really transcend that little Slappy rat-pack and actually show a genuine interest in more than one fighter.

KrisSilver is a joke. I saw his name on the index one day as the last post in the Boxing History section (which I regularly check). I thought to myself, "hmm, what's the betting this rare appearance will relate to Calzaghe in some way?". Sure enough, it was a countdown of great title reigns with KrisSilver making some snitty remark about Calzaghe's 168 run not being rated high enough.

The guy is a nouveau fanboy creep. Anyone who tries to sell Calzaghe-Jones Jr. 2008 as a real fight is a jerk, right off the bat. Add to that, his posts regularly make no sense and just talk their way back up his own arsehole. He's appalling - the epitome of everything bad about fairweather ****head Joe fans.

What's worse?

A) Deriving pleasure from being a positive fan and poster about something/someone you actually like.

B) Deriving pleasure from being wholly negative all the time, stalking people and topics you apparently dislike/hate, in a generally self righteous bullying fashion as if unable to just be decent.

IMO Froch is custom built for Calz, he'd get windmilled to death with his defence

Keyser Soze is notorious.

I like dude, but the anti-Calzaghe **** is just played out. Dead. Rotted. Deader than Hatton's P4P dreams laid out in the Nevada desert.

And he's the same guy who trashed a confidence-shot, fucked-handed Malignaggi after Hatton walked through him. Like Paulie could actually give any more that night. Anybody who doubts Paul's balls and heart and willing has no instinct for the sport, far as I'm concerned.




Anyway, nevermind.

Yeah, it's all Joe's fault he didn't fight Hopkins or Jones Jr. in their primes. All his fault. And, yeah, Joe really should have set his sights Kelly Pavlik when he had a shot at a glamor fight with Roy Jones Jr. LMAO Kelly fucking Pavlik. Please.

And, of course, it's entirely Mayweather's fault that fights with every single guy his detractors say he should have faced never happened.


"Joe said..."

"Mayweather said..."





The people who blow the hardest about the good of boxing on here are also the ones who don't seem to fucking understand the sport very well.


If some sad ****s can't appreciate what Mayweather and Calzaghe have given to the sport. Fuck them.


Seriously. It's funny to a point. But if the "hatred" isn't just an overstatement of some disaffection they feel, and is actually 100% genuine and without irony - some pathetic ****s really need to grow the fuck up.

And why can't he be in the same sentence? He beat the best at 168, he moved up to lhw and beat the best hopkins. Ali, Fazier, and Forman beat the best in their weight class too. Hey, do you think its easy defending the world title 21 times? You don't know how tough it is to be a boxer, you wouldn't last one round in that ring. Not to mention one minute.

IDK about him beating the best......I'll will only give the B-Hop fight and that was the only fighter that was actually good but other than that idk
RJJ was past his prime and Lacy & Kessler were highly overrated at the time and Manfredo just ******
21 title defenses is hard to do but Calzaghe fought nobody's and has been's
not only that but he himself actually believes he is the greatest just because he retired undefeated and had 21 title defenses, it's one thing that HBO and other English fighters and English media give hime TOO much credit but it's another thing to actually say that about yourself
A true champion doesn't talk about how great he is, he show you great he is which is something he didn't do.......he didn't want to give Hopkins a rematch, he turned down or ducked one of the top LHW Dawson, top SM Pavlik, Johnson, Froch, and many others

C) Being KrisSilver.

That's worse than anything.



And let's not mischaracterize my behaviour, posts or motives to suit ourselves.

I don't care for simpering 'propriety' as a mask for abject naffness and cramming an obsession down everybody's throat. Kick back and learn something, there's plenty of teachers here. And you clearly know fuck all.

[Tha_Greatest]

Dude's retired. No reason for cats to be hatin on him now.

man , dont you hate the fact he called hopkins a rascist, thats the only reason i hate calzaghe,


hopkins is not a rascist

The fact that you put Manfredo as his next biggest win after Lacy and Kessler was funny. Then you said he was English and that Kelly Pavlik was the top Super Middleweight and I almost pissed myself

[MACAQUEINBLACK]

the fact that you put manfredo as his next biggest win after lacy and kessler was funny. Then you said he was english and that kelly pavlik was the top super middleweight and i almost pissed myself

LOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOL

And shaking my effin' head.
