Ottke wasn't willing to leave Germany, and can you blame Joe for not wanting to go over there and fight Ottke?? He'd of had to knock him out to get a draw. Don't forget, Joe was on the end of a disgraceful robbery against an Eastern European in Eastern Europe at the 1990 European Championships and it was reported that it made Roy Jones Jr's loss to Park Si-Hun look Fair by comparison! (Joe hasn't lost since, and has rarely gone the distance since).Originally posted by phil28but there have been opportunities for him if he was willing to step out of his comfort zone.Comment

VERY strange, if you go down the pub and find a bunch of guys talking about boxing I guarantee they want Lacy to knock that sheep-shagging puffters head off. Even on internet forums, 99% of English boxing fans want Lacy to win.Originally posted by phil28Hmm, 100% of the English boxing fans I know want the exact opposite. Each to their own I guess.Comment

Anyway, Brewer and Mitchell were robbed against Ottke but then Joe beat them up. Richie Woodhall was robbed against Beyer but then Joe beat him up. Joe has proved beyond any doubt that he has always been the best in the division by a distance.Originally posted by JuicyJuiceOttke wasn't willing to leave Germany, and can you blame Joe for not wanting to go over there and fight Ottke??

Having seen many Calzaghe fights, two of them live, he would have knocked Ottke out had they ever fought. I agree that Ottke was on the receiving end of many a gift decision (non more so than the Robin Reid fight) thanks to never fighting outside of Germany, but Calzaghe would have gained respect by putting an end to that clown's title reign and unbeaten record.Originally posted by JuicyJuiceOttke wasn't willing to leave Germany, and can you blame Joe for not wanting to go over there and fight Ottke??

There have been times when Joe has just been unlucky, such as when he had to pull out of the Glen Johnson fight due to injury. Having said that, this was before Johnson knocked out RJJ, so even if Joe had beaten him then, chances are many people would be saying, 'so what, he beat Johnson'.
I'm not bashing Joe, I'm just saying that I can see both sides of the argument. At some point he has to take some responsibility for his lack of that 'career defining fight', that's all I'm saying.Comment

It was totally true.Originally posted by phil28'their mouths were open after they saw what Lacy did to Reid'.
.
You would not believe how many UK fightfans picked Reid to "expose" Lacy.
I also don't have the time to dig up all the threads and responses before and after the fight.
