Joe Calzaghe was on of the true greats

[QUOTE=portuge puncher;5349837]no I mean currently.add Reid, Woodhall, Mitchell and Brewer to that list as well.
Chad Dawson certainly rates him and to quote Mayweather Jnr word for word "Calzaghe can box and I like watching him, the guy truly is a real champion"
Joe deserves massive respect, he use to favour the "over the top" left hand, but had to stop that punch because that punch was what caused his hand injuries because they would connect on top of the head. The Kessler fight was another fight where he changed his tactics, Kessler had the better of him early on, two massive uppercuts and Calzaghe, although rocked, took them both and got stronger as the fight went on.
12,15 or 20 round fight, Calzaghe would outbox anyone at his weight.[/QUOTE]
i hope you mean currently.
currently he could probbably still beat all the top SMW,
but not of all time. i think toney could beat him at that wieght personally, just my opinion tho.Comment

right ok
Calzaghe is **** scared of slying, petrified. Do you follow soccer/football then a player called Dennis Bergkamp would refuse to fly to game in Europe such was his fear. But we'll leave that one seeing how you think its a poor excuse.You really want to go with that one?
Calzaghe was willing to fight Hopkins but when it came to the deal Hopkins wanted $6million - they couldn't secure that sort of money.You actually believe that propaganda? And even if it were true the guy gets a pass because he tried once in a 20 year career to get a good fight and it didn't work so he quit and never tried again. Nice role model.
Jones was tied up with another broadcaster who wouldn't sign up for the fight.Here is a thought, Maybe he should have done that 8 years earlier? What do you think. I mean what kool aid excuses do you want to use
Are you going to tell me something different?Comment

[QUOTE=portuge puncher;5349886]Calzaghe would eat Froch like raw meat.
Taylor had him in all sorts of bother until the steam ran out. Froch came back with a few digs here and there until late on, but Calzaghe has the engine to keep going and won't relent, whilst Froch has no defence.
But I doubt Calzaghe could knock Froch down like taylor did.Comment

He flew to America back to back to fight to washed up has beens moron. What a miraculous recovery from being paralyzed with fear.

Are you going to tell me something different?Those pathetic excuses are so dumb I won't even waste my time responding again like I already did. Your denial is so intense it wouldn't matter. You would probably interpret it as a complement.Comment

ha ha what a welk!!!
so what if he flew out in last two fights, in doesn't disprove that man hates flying.
Christ he fought on the Tyson undercard in Denmark once and actually took the boot over, fought in Germany as well and took the train from France.
Either way carry on your hate fest.,Comment

So why when offered fights with Froch, did Calzaghe choose, Evans Ashira, Bika and Manfreeeedo instead?? and then no sooner does Froch become mandatory for Joes Title, Joe vacates???????
There seems there is something Joe doesnt fancy about fighting FrochComment
