Joe Calzaghe was on of the true greats

[daggum]

Daggum what are on about?

your name is wales08. i feel bad for you that calzaghe has tarnished the great country of wales reputation and people worldwide now think welsh people are sissy slapping women.

[hammerhiem]

so basically the reason calzaghe won the fight was because "he looked like he wanted to win." damn that's some great judging people. throw out clean punching cause calzaghe wanted to win more!

No i'm saying that if a fighter throws single figure punches in teh majority of rounds in a fight he shouldn't expect to win and I won't be scoring rounds for him.

If a fighter throws 200 punches and land only 20 i will still be scoring the round to him if the other guy only threw 10 and landed 8. since the guy scored 12 more times. Unless the 8 punches are staggering him and looking like they are hurting teh other fighter.

by "looked like he wanted to win" I mean he was throwing punches, trying combinations and fighting, not just making like a tortoise and grabbing everytime the other guy got in range.

People Give Hatton **** for grappling But Hatton at least fights on teh inside, BHop against Calzaghe didn't even do that.

Remember and only fight top 10 rated opponents.

Most of the **** he landed weren't even punches and they were hitting shoulders and Hopkins back. They were wrist taps man.

As the fight progressed, Calzaghe was landing more and more punches.

That's why Hopkins faked the low blow, so he would have time to rest and recover.

lol well he didnt land a single punch for the first 4 rounds so technically you are correct.

ok but calzaghe landed virtually nothing like i said so you are basically scoring air punches.

[Patheticfraud?]

Calzaghe would have fought Hopkins years ago if Hopkins hadnt priced himself out of the fight and Jones for signing with another broadcaster

You believe that BS? Why didn't Joe come to the US, Get known and force a fight with Hopkins or Jones? Why was he content to bum it up for 10 years defending a **** title? And yes it is his responsibility to do that! Hopkins and Jones are not the one who get **** on constantly day in and day out for their pathetic resumes.

Top 10 in the WBO? That's about the same as top 50 anywhere else.

[P4P GOAT]

Who gives a **** about being undefeated when you never fought anybody. It's a pathetic disgrace. Do you think anybody would respect any of the greats if they choose to fight stiffs instead of taking a chance at losing. Can you imagine Ali, Hagler, Robinson saying no thanks, I'll just keep this WBO title for 10 years. I'll fight Sonny Liston when he turns 45. There is no shame in losing when you fight the best every time. In fact, It's a badge of honor. I don't know how Calslappy sleeps at night. Calzaghe is the greatest con of all time at best.

Chris Eubank was not a stiff.

Kessler is arguably the best at 168.

Hopkins just beat Pavlik

Kessler
Brewer
Mitchell
Eubank
Jones
Hopkins
Reid
Woodhall
Lacy
