    He isn't even a hall of famer yet.

    I believe Calzaghe would have had the same troubles against the Kessler Ward beat. Joe never went into a fight with a set strategy, he makes it up as he goes along. In that regard he is far superior to Kessler, who doesn't know how to adapt and is one-dimensional. Ward on the other hand had been planning a gameplan with his camp for months against Kessler and knew every move of Kessler's by the time he went into the fight, which allowed him to dominate from round 1.

    Calzaghe would have his troubles in the early rounds and then wipe out the mid/late rounds as he did when they actually fought.

      It's called inferiority complex. Because for blacks and a few other races, there isn't much to be proud of besides sports, and they'd hate for the white guys or even some asian dudes to take this away from them.

              Well atleast I know what the word overrated means unlike you.

              Have Calzaghe fans said he is an ATG? Yes.

              Have Calzaghe fans said he would beat a prime RJJ? Yes.

              Have Calzaghe fans said he has a better resume than RJJ or Hopkins? Yes

              Have Calzaghe fans said that he should be ranked higher than Hopkins or Rjj? Yes.

              now Have Cotto fans been saying that Cotto is an ATG? Nope, somebody might have said that but far from every Cotto fan have said it.

              Have Cotto fans been saying that he is one of the best of all time? No they haven't.

              this could go on and on but hey whats the point you still don't know what the word overrated is anyway.


              If Calzaghe fans weren't so ****in dilusional I just might have given Calzaghe some respect....

                Are you a little simple?

                Fare from every cotto fan has said it? Not every calzaghe fan has said it.

                I haven't seen any calzaghe fans who were not trolls say he was the best of all time.

                Before making sweeping generalizations make sure you get ir right, okay?

                    I spent 12 years living to see that tosser Calzaghe get Ko'd, by the time he fought anyone who could they were way past it, guys a fraud, his record is a fraud and as the guys he struggled to beat continued to get schooled by the next gen of Americans my opinion only gains more weight.

                    Come back and get knocked out by a real boxer Joe you stinking coward!!!!!

                      No way can you win a fight without landing any punches, throwing wild lunge filled pitty pats are not scoring shots and compubox stats are a joke.

                      Im sure I read all press row had Hopkins winning and also read Hopkins was off form through a thyroid issue which is a pretty imporatnt gland to have go wrong on you in moments of exertion.
