    ** Toney butted Rahman in the 2nd round which opened up the cut. Do try and pay attention.

      *****, I could fill a thimble with what you really know about boxing.

      I have never once stated that I could or would fight anybody in the world ranks right now. In my time I threw fists with many world class fighters.

      When you KNOW anything about this game let me know.

      Rockin'

        I didn't say he opened the cut with a slap. I said he slapped the cut. That means after it was allready there.


        Do try and pay attention to the posts that you are dissing.

          So, after watching Lacy get totally dominated, you were dissapointed with Joes slaps?

          Or that the ref didnt call him on it?

          Its just strange that u focus on that and suggest it was because the fight was not in America, and dont talk about what a great performance it was.
          I havent heard anyone else talk about that. No one apart from u seems to of had a problem with it.

          But maybe thats why u are drawing attention to it.

            I am not saying that Calzage didnt fight well, he was 10x the fighter that Lacy was, tailor made for him if you would.

            It was just something that I saw happen many times in the fight. Replay the fight if you have the ability and you will see what I mean. Lacy comes in and Joe lets like 6 or 8 left-right slaps go up against Lacys gloves and face. Those shots hurt man and do alot of damage. You could only understand if you have eatin' a few in your time. If you have then you know exactly what Im talking about with the damage that can be done.

            FOR THE RECORD!!!!!!! Lacy was not in Calazges leauge that night, nor will he ever be in my opinion. But it was so blatantly obvious that he was slapping alot. I didnt see the shots that caused the cuts or swelling, they very well may have been from the heel of the glove. I dont know, I didnt see the shots that caused them. It is however a possibility.

                Calazge on the other hand would throw like 6 or 8 slaps right in a row. It really made me sick watching it. It was his defense against Lacy when Lacy would attack. It is a sub amatuer tactic that should not be allowed. Its garbage.

                Rockin'

                You would be hardpressed to find a great fighter who doesnt do some shady things in the ring, Joe does throw a lot of slaps but he mixes his speed so well...sure he will throw a few slaps in a row but then he will follow it up with a a hard shot or two.

                Being critical of Joe's performance is tough to do...after Pac Man destroyed Barerra did you complain that his style looked amatuerish and one dimensional or has your trainer not showed you that scrap yet?

                You will be hardpressed to find a fighter fight at the pace Joe Calzaghe fights at...you cant find anything to say good about him? He's just a slapper?

                  I actually did mention that Pac runs in like an amatuer and that Morales would hand him a defeat. A sharp shooter not as old as Morales will give Pac alot of trouble, he has alot of flaws in his style, but non in his heart. The rematch was different, but yes I did mention that.


                  I did mention good things about Joe, besides bitchin' about the slapping. Reread the entire thread and you will see.

                    Excuse me, but Morales is only a year or two older than PAC. Morales isn't even 30 yet or wasn't even 30 when he fought PAC in those 2 fights.

                      Yeah you say a decent thing or two about Joe but cmon-when you win every minute of every round the first thing out of your mouth shouldnt be he slaps alot...he was as dominating as any fighter YOU have ever seen in a BIG FIGHT like this...critisize Lacy for being a bum thats fine but name a big time fight where one fighter absolutely doiminated the other in the fashion in which Joe did...then critisize him for it.
