    This guy is a legendary Calzaghie hater.

    And that is why he is about to get some green K from me!

      It's sad that someone feels that they must justify Calzaghe with the Lacy victory....

      Kessler was his best and most important win IMO. Not taking anything away from it but its not like Kessler is an ATG. Kessler's a bad a$$ though and I did pick Kessler to beat Joe!

        Actually he stated several times that he wanted to fight Jones

                At the end of the day, Calzaghe has earned himself a spot in the Hall of Fame. But lets face it....he just doesn't compare to the Jones, Hopkins & Toney's of his time.

                  If Calzaghe was serious, he would have gone to the US to make a name for himself.

                  Calzaghe was a joke, man. .
                  He is an embarrassment to boxers.

                      he should never ever be mentioned in the same sentence as the greats like RJJ, Hopkins and Toney.

                      He and Sven Ottke should have a nice barbeque in the summer.
