Who's greater? Froch or Calzaghe?

[AztecWanker]

Remember, RJJ had just beat Tito months before that...though Tito was fighting at a higher weight, and was past it. Too bad Roy looked so good in that fight...he actually gave the public some hope. That's what made Joe's victory seem that much greater...because people thought Roy had enough left in the tank.

No...didn't I just say that the dude was almost 40? Not everybody functions well at those ages in boxing.

Then why do you consider Roy a good win for Joe??? Roy's win over Tito is the same thing, Tito was totally irrelevant as a top fighter when Roy beat him.

no brainer here, people who vote for Froch have an agenda against Calzaghe

You're annoying af with this anti-american bias. No one's even brought that mess up in this thread and you're ruining a thread where we're having a decent discussion.

don't try to get high and mighty

it's impossible to have a "decent discussion" about Calzaghe with Americans

They HATE him

Age is just a number.

Hopkins was still very good when he was in with Joe, not shot like Ali when Berbick fought him.

Let's not forget B-Hop schooled the then-highly-regarded Kelly Pavlik afterwards, and later defeated Jean Pascal, one of Froch's best wins.

I agree with this. Hopkins was still a good win cause he still remained relevant after fighting Joe where Roy didn't.

Yeah, Tito coming off a 3 year lay off and hadn't won a fight in longer than that.

No one thought Roy Jones had anything left in the tank at this point.

We're having one so far, Sir Greentooth.

I didn't say anything about Bernard Hopkins.

My post was referring to Roy Jones Jr and I only mentioned age in response to that poster who brought up the age of Trevor Berbick.

You can't

Yep, absolutely despise him and it's funny the things they say and do to cover up the fact he was an excellent fighter.

That's one way of putting it. Now name the fighters they beat and what stage of their careers they beat them in.
