will u give CALZAGHE respect if .. ?

[JuicyJuice]

yes, easy. jones has better handspeed, better defense and quicker feet. he also has more power.

Word games..

Its a close fight and let me say this-you are a mother****ing ****** if Joe goes out and KO's Lacy and you still refuse to respect him (I dont think Joe will ko Lacy)...a mother****ing ******...

Im still one of the few that say this fight is a U pickem....most of the other people making prediction have never even seen Joe fight.

[DiegoFuego]

Neither one of them is "****". The winner is better and the loser is probably the 2nd or 3rd best Super Middleweight in the world. That's all there is to it. You can't argue with undefeated records.

im speaking the truth and you know it

[medium-deek]

im speaking the truth and you know it

The truth is unless they actually fight, we will never, ever know. Simple.










I know thats obvious, but hey, sometimes you gotta spell out.

[JMCbulls]

calzaghe-
respect?yes
good?definately
great?not quite

lacy-
respect?always have, always will
good?win or loss he is still GOOD
great?no

thats if lacy loses

[El Guapo]

i hope calzaghe wins, but expect he will loose. this way i wont be dissapointed!
whoever looses will still have respect from their true fans, not the glory supporters!

[mECHsLAVE]

Some excellent points there, matey. Though dont agree about us Brits worshiping UK fighters no matter what.

No, I wasn't saying that. But when you find a poster who is all about worshipping Benn, Eubank, Calzaghe, etc, then chances are he's a Brit.

if joe calzaghe KO's jeff lacy with a brutal KO. will you accept lacy was **** and that calzaghe was a great?

or will you all join the excuses ****wagon, sayin it was the ref cheatin. etc etc

(ill contact you if i wanna do bets)

Yes i will give joe calzaghe respect and i hope he KO Jeff Lacy and all US boxingfans will make this excuses(Lacy has only 21 fight or he has pain in he`s ass,the ref help joe calzaghe etc etc)

The answer is:

There's a certain group of people who will NEVER give credit to any white, foreign fighter, no matter what...always finding a way to spin to their detriment.

Friend, please keep the dishonest race-baiting to yourself. The lack of respect that boxing fans outside of the UK have for Calzaghe has nothing to do with the level of melanin in his skin. He's a fighter blessed with extraordinary talent who has wasted his best years fighting sub par competition and pulling out of tough fights with mysterious injuries. With that being said, if Calzaghe does beat Lacy in impressive fashion anyone who doesn't give him due respect is a fool.
