    when did they come to Europe to take their beating? in fact by my reckoning the first time Jones Jr. left the US he was knocked out.
    The Same Roy that fought Calzaghe got koed in 1 by danny green, actually stopped jeff lacy(the less said about calzaghes power the better, this "he use to have power, but injuries...." crap does not exist, in any point of his career he would be considered a slapper and that is exactly why he will never leave a solid even B level opponent out on his back, Hopkins was 44years old and couldn't handle any foot and hand speed disadvantages at this point which is why Taylor beat him twice(something Calzaghe did not have the nuts to do). Anyway look at it this way, Andre Ward could literally taken that route he would've also stayed undefeated, he just beat Kessler like he's never been before, he probably would've STOPPED Lacy, koed Roy Jones, and this version of Hopkins who has extreme trouble with foot and hand speed would lose to Andre Ward, face it, Calzaghes resume is literally worse than Chad Dawsons ALREADY, Dawsons win over Tomasz Adamek ****s on anybody on Calzaghes resume

      Well said. I have been clownin on Warren for a while for how much he runs his mouth. It's nice to see a little backlash against this kind of garbage. I think sometimes we as boxing fans get too caught up in the **** talk outside of the ring and it really takes the focus away from the people who have really committed their lives to the sport.

        Once he had established himself as a superstar in the Mecca of boxing he was then able to carry big shows in Zaire and in Manilla.
        exactly. his biggest fights weren't in america

          The idea that people now need to go to the USA to make a career is no longer valid. There was a time when the cream of the p4p crop came from the Us, which made it the mecca of boxing. That time is passed....boxing is now truly an international sport. Its the reason Wlad can make more money puttin on events in Switzerland than Vegas.

            Excuses.

            Anyway look at it this way, Andre Ward could literally taken that route he would've also stayed undefeated, he just beat Kessler like he's never been before, he probably would've STOPPED Lacy, koed Roy Jones, and this version of Hopkins who has extreme trouble with foot and hand speed would lose to Andre Ward, face it, Calzaghes resume is literally worse than Chad Dawsons ALREADY, Dawsons win over Tomasz Adamek ****s on anybody on Calzaghes resume
            Very true, he headbutted him out of the fight. Kessler has never been headbutted out of a fight before.

            You have a lot of hate for Calzaghe but he shat all over America's legends, beat Kessler legitimately (unlike Ward) and retired undefeated. Atg.

              Calzaghe said watch your mouth Warren. Joe is my hero and should be a role model to all

                I agree. JC is artificial. He is the typical built, rather than made, fighter. Stamina and hand speed are the only good level traits he had. Accuracy? no, Power? no, Defense? no, Quality of competition? Low to average (being kind). When people try to make highlights of his career it's a comedy show all the time. I tried once. I gave up. No technically sound punches, no defense... It was horribly funny in a bad way, specially when you think how many people claim he's the best brit or the best SMW of all time (wtf?)
                No beef though, anyone is free to be a fan of whoever they want. I'm not making hate threads of JC or any other fights (cept Pacquiao recently so i could prove a point to the *******s but i totally respect Pacquiao too and JC, all fighters in general)

                      joe calzaghe retired because hopkins went from 45 years old to 21 in the pavlik fight.. and the only meaningful bout for joe was a bhop rematch , he said " no thanks mate"
