If Calzaghe wanted him, why didn't he go get him. I thought I was going to see a video of Calzaghe stepping to Jones' face and challenging him, instead you guys post a pointless video of calzaghe hoping to fight to Jones.
If RJ and BH wanted Joe,
why didn't they go get him?
Its pretty disgusting that people have the attitude that non american fighters always have to cater to american fighters.
calzaghe was an absolute nobody in terms of worldwide boxing appeal. he was a euro champ who was fighting nothing but bums. nobody took him seriously. he was the sebastian sylvester of the 90s and early 2000's.
calzaghe and jones weren't even in the same division. it's easy to call someone out when they aren't even in your division and you know the fight will never be made. it's a way to get more publicity for yourself.
it's akin to sebastian sylvester calling out andre ward or carl froch. if they didn't fight him are they ducking sebastian sylvester? stop trying to revise history with your inaccurate rhetoric.
marquez was one of the most popular and best p4p fighters in boxing. calzaghe was neither. do you understand? and no one took that fight seriously just like no one would have taken jones-calzaghe seriously. good point though!
He waited until he could use his age as an excuse!!!!
who you trying to convince yourself?
not only did calzaghe hide at 168 in order to pad his slappy record only to move up when roy & bernard were a combined 80 plus years old but the bastard retired when 168 suddenly became a loaded division with the super 6 fighters.
clinton woods was a top 10 light heavyweight. calzaghe wasn't ranked at light heavyweight. revising history can be so fun! in ten years you same people are gonna say sebastian sylvester ducked andre ward. it's the same scenario. unknown euro champ against top boxer.
your problem is you think jones vs calzaghe at the time would have been some major fight when it wouldn't have been. yes it would have been better then some of roy jones fights but no one fights tough fights every time out. it's the way the boxing business is setup. you should know this being a calzaghe fan because calzaghe took more easier fights than anyone except maybe sven ottke.
i come back to the sebastian sylvester-andre ward example. sylvester is a champ that hides in germany and draws a lot of fans fighting bums. does that mean andre ward who's in another division is gonna fight him? that fight doesn't make sense just like calzaghe-jones made no sense. you are trying to revise history with inaccurate perception.
