Thread: Ok Calzaghe Haters What Does He Need To Do In Jones Fight To Get Respect!

Will a knockout do it?
Will a unaminous decision do it?
Will a split decision do it?

As many folk on this site think RJJ is gonna win,then if Calzaghe wins U have to give him respect. correct?

he has to do what he did to kessler for the mainstream to respect him..

take what RJJ dishes out to him, counter punch, and make him give up basically..

I'd say he needs a pretty solid UD for any hater to have an ounce of respect..

Well i don't like him as a person so i would never respect him on that point i don't like his boxing style so no respect their either and as for his career its all a bit to little to late.

For people that already dislike calzaghe this upcoming fight won't change anything. Maybe a couple of years back..but not now. I don't mind the guy either way but from what i see it's joe's career as a whole they dislike not something one particular fight will change. I doubt he cares half as much as his fans do, joe seems satisfied with what he's done during his time in the sport.

The title could have been a bit less abrasive IMO. I think most real boxing fans respect Joe.

Simaltaneous 2 division recognized Ring Champ

Undefeated

Over 10 year champion

Not to mention top 5 PFP fighter.

Id say there is a lot to be respected there

I wont respect him ever , beating a 39 year old Jones who Tarver and Johnson have KOED , and a 43 year old hopkins dont make a career.

If i was in a burning building with no escape than to be helped by calzaghe then i would rather burn. I HATE HIM MORE THAN MOST CAN HATE ANYTHING

Kessler never gave up in the fight against Calzaghe.

Joe has to beat Jones by a clear decision. Closer to his victory against Kessler than his win over Hopkins.

I'm the same as the Dark one here i hate the guy how true boxing fans like his style is beyond me.

He can't do anyhting to gain respect, that is absolutely apparent. Everybody said he had to fight Lacy, he did it, everybody said he had to fight Kessler he did it. Everybody acknowledged that the only 2 real fights out there were Pavlick or Hopkins, he fought Hopkins and beat him. He can NEVER get respect from the haters.

I don't think beating Jones will enhance his legacy, although it will look good on paper

Yeh a 43 year old Hopkins is nothing much, he looked awful on Saturday

Since when has Britain been the hotbed of World boxing ever ?
THAT COMMENT IS BOLLOCKS.

Its not about just defending in Britain its some of the guys he fought from Eubank to Lacy he didn't do much he threatened to go to Light heavy loads of times to get the better fights but never did.
