1. cause he was a cocky arrogant cunt
2. he avoided real opponents until either A) he got them on his home turf or B) they were shot to shit

that pretty much sums it up

Because when you are that GOOD, everybody hates you as for him being arrogant cunt,yes he is but
so are most of the great fighters.

It is incredibly easy to hate on Joe if your not a fan out of sheer national pride. He was for the best part a stay at home fighter who for whatever reason didn't land fights with the best at the right time. On top of that he was a big mouth.

I think what he did to Kessler - at the end of a long career - is enough evidence of how good of a fighter Joe was... And that was after his hands had turned soft

You have to be great to be arrogant so joe hasn't the right to be arrogant. He was a protected puke like bute.

It's because he is welsh , if he was English they would be bragging him up . Like any Murray in tennis when he loses he's Scottish when he wins he's british

No that's bullshit. It's not the English that hate on Calzaghe at all.

Come on now Joe would have schooled him, and Froch as well.

Alot of the hate stems from not fighting in america from the early part of his career and not fighting a prime roy jones or other top tier american fighter.
I respect calzaghe stamina and workrate as he never seems to tire.
He is undeafeated and all his fights could not have been bums.
Frank warren has alot to do in protecting his fighter and it worked to joes advantage.
No one knows who would have won between joe and carl froch but perhaps joe would have nudged it.
But i must say carl fights anyone in any country at any time and he has ducked no one.

Froch gives his all,but he doe's no have the skill's to beat Calzaghe ,you don't and stand in front of Froch
you box him. Joe would have beat him very much, the same way he beat Kessler, Froch has a good engine but Calzaghe has a better one.
We seem to forget Joe, hand very bad hand trouble throughout his career, so considering being a undefeated World champion, what a feat as they say second to none.!

Most Englishmen don't care if you're Welsh, Scottish or English. It's the Scots and Welshmen with the chips on their shoulder who act like England's little angry brother and hate it... England just smiles and ruffles their hair!

I've been in pubs, when scotland beat france... Getting cheered on by Englishmen, fuck they wouldn't have been much happier if it was England playing! Would you see the same thing in Scotland or Wales? Would you fuck! You'd more likely see the fucking French cheered.

It's like short man syndrome.

Point I'm making is - we don't care if Calzaghe is Welsh... Not a fuck.

he tried to fight jones and hopkins for 10 years that is a fact.
