joe calzaghe's speed is an illusion

[#1Assassin]

listen yank... when Joe taunted Roy he made AMERICA or (the capital of the worlds arse) his bit.ch..

nuff sed

hahaha u got owned

im not american, and im half white too since i predict race would be your next argument. when joe taunted old man jones he didnt achieve anything at all, or when he beat him for that matter.

Firstly, you need to dry your eyes.

Now. Noone said the win over Jones meant anything. We all know Jones was way past his best (and Calzaghe too was past his best, being 37 and all). However, that fight wasn't about who was the best. It was a final big, 50:50 pay day and a show for boxing fans everywhere who had wanted to see that fight for the better part of a decade. Just so happened Calzaghe embarassed him when they finally got it on.

The way yo uare crying that Joe taunted him. LMFAO.

I thought it was GREAT of Joe to do that. Jones clowned on loads of fighters during his 'prime' years. Showboating, humiliating them and demeaning them. Yet when Calzaghe does it (and does it properly by sticking his chin RIGHT IN THE OPEN FOR JONES TO TRY AND HIT and cutting up Jones' face) it's not OK?

So it's ok for Jones to taunt fighters but Calzaghe can't do it to Jones?

Seriously, take YOUR TOUNGE AWAY FROM THE SALTY CRACK OF JONES.

And yes, Dirrell is a Typical US Hypejob like Lacy was. Lacy was 'The Next Tyson' and at least he was the IBF/IBO champ with some semi-decent names on his resume. The way he and the whole of the states were virtually swaggering, thinking they were going to KO Calzaghe in 6 and 'bring that belt home' and yet we got one of the biggest and most horrific one-sided beatdowns in the last 20 years of the sport. Calzaghe didn't just beat Lacy - he beat his critics, he beat the entire USA boxing community who claimed he was **** and a hypejob - he EXPOSED the real hypejob in DEVASTATING and SOUL DESTROYING fashion.

If Joe came back and beat Dirrell it would be a slightly better win than Lacy but not by much. I think Dirrell is a better boxer than Lacy ever was but let me say this - Lacy has a heart too big and a chin too solid for his own good. Dirrell perhaps has neither of those warrior attributes.

And anyway, why the **** should Joe take on tough opponent for his last bout? He'd been fighting for 2 decades and just wanted to retire with a good payday fighting a fight that should have happened many years ago. Like Lampley said - too fighters coming together, not for the money, not for the title - but for respect.

"and bringing up race is just unnecessary. its not enough calzaghe is killing the sport fighting roy jones' corpse on ppv his fans has to kill this forum aswell."

The reason I brought it up is like it or not - a lot of people that hate Calzaghe (such as yoruself) are black Americans who can't stand Calzaghe beat Hopkins (a far better version of Hopkins than Jones fought) and Jeff 'Tyson II' Lacy as well as just clowning (on the apparently now, not shot since his drubbing of Lacy) Jones. Not too mentioned all the semi-decent challangers such as Mitchell Calzaghe spanked down the years.

jones never taunted washed up greats. he didnt taunt mccallum when they fought. toney is one of my favourite fighters but ill admitt he showed little if any class when he taunted holyfield in their fight. its not about who i like or dislike man, i just dont think its cool to clown on former greats like that once their washed up. not "crying" over it, just think its dissrespectful.

there are lots of ppl who are racist, both blacks and whites. bringing it up is never smart.

and you are wrong, im not a black american. im mixed black and white and im not american at all. im european and carribbean, and like i said half white.

and how do u gain respect from beating up on a washed up oponent. joe in his last fight pre jones got the biggest W of his career, roy hadnt had a big win in over 5 years. i think its fine he had a goodbye fight, just pointing out it didnt do anything for his legacy. ppl keep bringing up jones on his resume like its supposed to mean something when it doesnt.

I don't give a **** if a fighter was 'great' or not. Jones got a taste of his own medicine and for a lot of people it was very satisfying to watch. See the topic of round 3 of the Jones/Calzaghe fight if you have any tears left to cry.

Also, I didn't say you were black. I said a lot of Calzaghe haters are black Americans.

i always say much respect to joe calzaghe for coming to the us and making fights with jones and nardo....everybody (except for hopkins delusional excuse making fans) knows that joe beat both jones and nard handily...most feel that roy/joe would have been a more competitive fight had it taken place before jones/ruiz, but he still lost so all respect to joe calzaghe...

[WhoreUs]

Based on what?

because calzaghe beat a prime roy jones.

[shade darkar]

he can only throw fast straight punches(punches which get pulled back) he's slow as **** when it comes to hooks and everything else, what a ****

46-0, nuff said.
