    I am and I'm quite sure you are not. You actually said Cal***gy exposed Roy Jones. Did you know he was 40 years old and brutally KTFO before he fought Calslappy? If you knew that then you are a completely ******ed moron probably drooling on the keyboard right now. If you didn't know then my apologies.

        Eubank was as shot as Jones!
        His wins over Roy Jones & Eubank are about as meaningful as Berbick & Spinks wins over Ali.

        Kessler was a good win over a prime, undefeated good fighter.

        Lacy was a hypejob, real boxing fans knew this from his previous outings, I personally think it says more about how bad Lacy was than how great Joe was tbh
        Casual fans didn't even know who the hell Lacy was they just thought he'd win because of his physique

          I agree, I don't think Calzaghe is an ATG. However, one could make the argument that Calzaghe's win over Hopkins is better than any win on either Klitschko brothers' resume.

            Yeah right his punches in that fight were about as hard as kate uptons *******. He looked like a ***** trying to fight his way out of a spider web.

              Joes resume is bad but IMO Lacy is actually one of the more weaker stand out fighters on the guys resume.

              Though they are controversial wins give me a prime Robin Reid or Mario Veit over Lacy any day.

                Because his resume is extremely weak.

                  He would beat Ward and Dawson, he was great.

                      A white guy can't possibly be THAT good. Oh yes.......he was THAT good and more...
