    I couldn't really enjoy many of his fights because I always found myself concentrating on the things he did wrong ; rather than the things he did so well.

    Certain basic things that all boxers know how to do Joe either just couldn't manage to do, or didn't feel the need to do.

    Things like pulling away from a punch (Ali did this, also), squaring up when he throws, keeping his feet too far apart, etc...

    Just little things that annoyed me as a bit of a purist.

      Needless to say Roy would be selling tacos somewhere right now if he fought a prime Calzaghe.

        But still shame on Calzaghe for taking advantage of such a green inexperienced fighter like that

            Hey do what you gotta do. The prime Roy didn't care that Calzaghe was old.

              How so. He beat up Kelly Pavlikkk, and helped a dying white kid with cancer, even gave him a gold watch.

                    The prime Roy couldn't handle an old Calzaghe and got beat.
