joe calzaghe's padwork is crazy

[daggum]

Is dominating prime Kessler, destroying Lacy, beating Jones, and even if you disagree with the decision, looking good in a tough fight with Bhop that bad of a legacy? I mean Hopkins and Kessler (sorta) are still champions now. The super-middle division was not loaded loaded 3-4 years ago the way it is now. Who would have you had Clazaghe fight outside of Chad Dawson, who is still pretty much a nobody? Glen Johnson? Tarver? Clinton Woods?

yeah it's a pretty crappy legacy. why even mention jones he was totally shot and was ko'd in one round by danny green 8 months later. lacy was a crap fighter. his resume was garbage and he looked terrible even before he lost to calzaghe. usually good fighters accomplish something notable in their careers. lacy did not. kessler was good and there's a couple other b level fighters on his resume but nothing to be too proud of. did you say he looked good against hopkins? he looked like diarrhea and i can't believe they gave him that decision. after being frustrated for the first 5 rounds he gave up doing anything even resembling boxing and just became a windmill to fool the judges with ineffective work. there were tons of fights out there if he wanted to pursue them but he didn't. he protected himself till the end of his career when he took a couple risks and then retired. a great fighter does not conduct himself in that manner and his legacy deservedly suffers for it.

And now here we are and Jones is still kicking around gearing up for a cruiserweight title shot.

Oh cool. I made the first post in this thread in 2011.

I still think the same thing. He was trying his best to impersonate Roy Jones, but ends up looking like a spastic. To be honest, it doesn't look that bad on the mitts, but then you see how it translates in the ring. Sloppy punches all over the place.

Are you actually trying to imply that Roy Jones was a good win for Calzaghe?

Joe Calzaghe the best Super Middleweight ever, by a long way.

Lightening fast accurate pad work there

The difference between padwork and a real fight is the same as riding a bike on a runway with training wheels and biking down an untrailed mountain at 40 miles per hour
