      They both have unattractive fighting styles as well, but the same people who say "Ewww, Calzaghe, slapping for points, that's not fighting" are the ones who say "Man Floyd may be boring but he's a defensive technician! He does what it takes to keep that 0!"
      i bet you anything if joe calzaghe was black, from brooklyn and was named joe carter and had the same resume,

      he would be defended and critically praised by the same people.

        It doesn't matter if Joe Calzaghe was from Brooklyn, Cananda, Mexico or the North Pole he'd still have only fought 3 fighters in his entire career who were ranked in the Top 5 when he fought them, once of which being the biggest hype job arguably in the history of Boxing.

        So again, no.

          are you seriously fighting for the honor of boxing division rankings by the different and ubiquitous fighting organizations who bump fighters due to promotional influence?

            It's got nothing to do with fighting organizations.

            And no what I am saying is no matter where Calzaghe is from the fact will remain that he has fought 3 Top 5 ranked fighters his entire career and that's ranked universally.

            So no matter where he was from he'd still get the same criticism that he does now.

            To compare Calzaghe's to Mayweather's is ridiculous. Mayweather's resume at 130 and 135 alone is deeper than Calzaghe's entire resume.

                Lol I gave up on threads like this a long time ago. Ppl are truly content on being idiotic if it suits their purposes. It's not something u can reason with.

                  Calzaghe was given a gift over Hopkins but he is still better than Fraud Jr.

                    Yeah he beat up hopkins by not hitting him at all besides in the balls. Lets face facts Calzaghe was wiffing all night with those windmill slaps. I don't even think anyone takes Calzaghe seriously. He's like an otteke or that light heavyweight bum who held his crap strap hostage by not fighting anybody.

                      Well thats
                      what happens when you duck fights, Including the biggest fight in boxing history. Fans are going to call you out on the BS, Floyd earned his ****ty reputation so you don't have to cry for him.
