Where as with Joe, he hasnt really shown any weaknesses and could be given the benefit of the doubt against any super middle, middle or light heavy ever.
Also regarding just how much Joe means to boxing right now, how much fuss was made on this forum when Mayweather retired?
The truth is alot of bitches here are jealous that Calzaghe isnt going to stick around until something fades and hes beaten, then they can say, "see!";D
Now, they have to stomach the fact hes been unbeaten, unified, travelled and a world class opperator and champion for 12 years and ring champ in 2 consecutive weights;D, there is no one else active who can compare with that.;D
I've seen many fighters actually but no1 better. Can some1 tell me of a more complete package?Quote:

Seen this article on Boxingnews 24, what an absolute sh1te website.
I don't know why they let some of these muppets write for them but I'm forever seeing these kind of articles on there.
I'm not saying Calzaghe has a cast iron legacy but damn, no need for this kind of tripe:
Calzaghe Retires - Good Riddance!
Good riddance seems a little harsh methinks. The author has an agenda and sticks to it. Not a balanced view at all. Calzaghe beat anyone who was willing to fight him. I think Hopkins priced himself out of a fight years ago and who else should Joe have fought? Jones Jr and Glen Johnson? Jones Jr is notoriously difficult to deal with and wont travel, and with Calzaghe under Warren a similar situation was happening too. And nobody paid any attention to Johnson after Hopkins beat him up...it was only when he was next in line to beat Jones Jr that he really became noticed properly. Otherwise, I dont see how Joe could have done it much differently in terms of fighting the best.
My only gripe with Joe is that there is too much padding on his record post Eubank. Better opponents could have been found. Not of the calibre of Jones or Hopkins of course, but decent pros nonetheless. The likes of Manfredo and Thornburry dont mean very much to me at all. But the same can be said of a lot of opponents on the record of Hopkins too. Thats just my own little gripe. Calzaghe is a great fighter.
To be fair Miles good riddance isnt harsh enough for me .
How about Joe Calzaghe retires - Fuck off you annoying prick ?
Just found the author to that article...Quote:
