did joe calzaghe duck lucian bute?

[daggum]

million dollar paydays?...what million dollar paydays froch has not had no million dollar payday

yes he has but you don't pay attention.

Froch was fighting Robin Reid at the time Joe retired. No one knew who Dirrell and Ward were. Abraham was fighting at MW.

But Daggum will spin it like Joe was mandated to fight them all.

it's nice to have facts on your side instead of just making things up like you do.

Bute was a nobody who didn't generate enough cash for a fight with Joe...fact!

Joe's last fight was before Froch fought Pascal. Froch was a SMW also. He didnt want to move up. It wasnt a big fight worldwide. Yet you spin it like it would've been Leonard coming back to fight Hagler....so sad.

froch already had the wbc belt. it's nice to have facts on your side instead of just making things up like you do.

Froch was young, tough and hungry ... not joe's cup of tea ... and thats exactly it FROCH beat Pascal why didn't Joe? I like joe but some people are seriously distorting the facts to make him seem like the greatest thing since sugar ray robinson. He was a good fighter but I mean really how many top boxers did he beat in their prime? ... kessler ... lacey (yeah struggling already) ... Robin reed (and that was another tough one) ... jeez he beat an old Eubank an older Hopkins (barely) and an ancient jones ... he had a long run as champ and fair play to him for that but even then he never fought Otke, just a long line of manditorys, hardly ever left the UK, never went out of his way to make a really big fight until the two lads were totally over the hill.

[jermainerambo]

yes he has but you don't pay attention.

froch gets about 750 000 U.S. dollars just under half a million British pounds per super 6 fights lol you don't pay attention

[Scary]

undefeated froch
undefeated bute
undefeated dirrell
undefeated ward
undefeated abraham

doesn't look so dead to me. calzaghe never had quality fighters like this in his division. 175 was just as scary. the hopkins rematch which he ducked, chad dawson who he wanted no part of and guys like glen johnson and jean pascal.


Calzaghe said in the last week he did not know who Froch, the new WBC super-middleweight champion, was — but he has done some research in the meantime. "Yeah, I Googled him," he said. "I've seen him but the guy doesn't mean anything. The guy don't mean ****. The guy he fought the other day [Jean Pascal], he didn't look any good.

"For me I think that's an easy fight, I'd knock him out inside four rounds because he's slow… The Americans won't pay one penny for him, they're not interested in him. I'm sorry, but that's the way it is."

the americans won't pay one penny for him that's why showtime keeps giving him million dollar paydays? real sharp boxing knowledge joe!

Yeah he said that 2½ year ago. Lying a bit?

[Tiozzo]

Roy fought Mandatorys for years get in the game buddy.

you can't shortcut Jones career and say ''yeah, he did the same thing as Calzaghe'' if you don't take into account the early part



it doesn't make sense, period

Jones best body of work came early, Calzaghe's came late

besides, you're probably a Jones hater, or at least, that's the message you're sending with your account features

[Tiozzo]

Calzaghe would've made Bute his ho.

yeah, sure...
