    Michael Watson disses Joe Calzaghe (again)

    From a tabloid:

    "It's been 10, 15 years and he still hasn't fought anybody with a pulse. Guys like Marvin Hagler, Sugar Ray Leonard, Nigel Benn fought everybody in sight, but then you get guys like Joe who fight once or twice a year against nobodies and disgrace the great sport, never fight in the States and so on."

    "I fought far better opposition than Joe and my time ended right at the start of my career, he's right at the end of his career and hasn't fought anybody to compare with Nigel Benn, Chris Eubank, Mike McCallum - the Body Snatcher, Dangerous Don Lee, Errol Christie and all. I fought the best European's and the best American's and my career had hardly begun, Joe hasn't fought anybody at all and he's at the end of the road.

    "He gives boxing a bad, bad name."

    Hasn't fought anyone to compare to Eubank?

    You can't blame him for being bitter though.

      Sounds like he is hatng to me. I understand his point about the level of competition but to go on and on about him being a disgrace is over the top.

        Watson is a very bitter, jealous man.

        Nobody knew who he was before the Benn fight, and certainly it was nobody tuning in to watch Michael Watson fight Eubank - it was everybody tuning in to watch Eubank fight an opponent.

            Calzaghe might be owned for not fighting anyone good, but Watson is handicapped...he's owned for life.

                Yeah but Watson was a Yank nuthugger, jerking off over Ali and Duran when he was 14, and working as Kirkland Laing's waterboy in Detroit.
