I remember for a long ass time after he beat Jeff Lacy, there was a ton of support for Calzaghe from the Brits on here. I mean literally the man could do no wrong and was capable of beating everyone out there according to you guys. But it doesn't seem like he has near as support on here as he used to. What happened?
Fighting Manfredo didn't help much nor ducking Kessler :(Quote:

I like Joe, but after the hype he recieved from the Lacy win, for him to duck a "Real Contender", Glenn Johnson, then fight Manfredo, hurt his credit IMO. Now with the Kessler mess, Joe is in need of a big fight. Win or lose, he should go out with a bang. Not a Brit, but love to watch Joe fight. The Lacy fight can't be the highlight of his career. Lets get a big fight signed Joe!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
Sick of hearing about "would be" fights and want to se these fights he talks so much about... He fights quality I'll be right there supporting him... Other then that
Just F**kin retire! >:mad
Well because everyone was hyping up Lacy like he was the next Tyson it was great victory for Calzaghe at the time he and Warren promised us fans so much and fighting the tv show 2nd place silver medalist Peter Manfredo and Sakio Bika just didn't cut it for me :-\Quote:

Alot of people are disgusted that the talent Joe has that he is wasting it on bums and tv show contenders.Quote:

...for me it's just that he's been riding off that win over lacy for way too long....too much talk and crying about how he can't lure any of the big names overseas.
Boxing is not just about money thats total bs and poor excuse its about proving yourself against best and all boxers have competitiveness Joe is wasting his career away boxers want the spotlight they want recognition they want to be the best its not just about money.Quote:

If hes only fighting for money, then he doesnt have what it takes IMO. He should be filthy rich, what more does he need to buy? Sounds to me like he's using the money as a out....
joe got a lot of money i would like to be a pound behind him ;D ;D ;D ;D ;D
