    calzaghe dominated robin reid? no a lot of people thought he lost that one. at least ottke fought glen johnson a guy calzaghe clearly ducked. his promoter had to pay glen johnson in advance in case calzaghe pulled out...and he did of course lol

      Reid was fairly close but a clear win 8-4 or 7-5 with a deduction too. Reid was robbed against Ottke when he was way past his best.

        sure thing

        arguing about who did better against robin reid lol. both these guys were frauds. early stoppage joe who didnt fight a fresh opponent until jeff lacy(who ******) and then finally took a challenge with kessler. froch fought ward, bute who was #1, abraham who became #1 after losing, groves who became #1 after losing, and pascal who became #1 after losing to froch. besides kessler and hopkins did any of the guys joe fought do anything? nope. he also beat kessler twice in my view but at least once and thats joes best win. i guess calzaghe has that gift win over hopkins even though he couldn't land anything clean for basically the entire fight. what skill

              I think Calzaghe was a better all around fighter but I think Froch fought and beat better competition.

                    “Who has Carl ever beaten, who was the absolute man of their division? Not a single guy he’s beaten,” he said.

                    “He beat Kessler long after his peak and dined out on it for ages.

                    JOE Calzaghe has reignited his bitter feud with British rival boxer Carl Froch, claiming the Cobra “is the ultimate hypocrite,” who…


                    Calzaghe was already 36 and had fought his last fight by the time Froch had his first significant fight and victory (Pascal).
