Calzaghe deserves respect

[Violent Demise]

How long is he suppose to live off the Lacy win? Calzcrappy needs to stop being a coward and fight Kessler.

When was the last time you completed your life long ambition that you worked 2/3's of your life for? Get f***ed.

Everyone's entitled to an opinion here...but let's not all get so bent out of shape over it.

While I agree with you yoitsdan...it is time for Joe to take out Kessler...that should pretty much silence all other critics.

Joe did do a great thing in beating Lacy...no matter what anyone says...it's a pity that everyone else has forgotten what Lacy did to his other opponents. Props & respect to Joe...those that won't give it...well they just don't know.

Technically...there's no one else out there that needs to be beaten.

Rational boxing fans & fans of Calzaghe know that Joe is the good...all the rest of that S*** speak is nothing more than bitterness.

It's a pity that people refuse to acknowledge that Lacy's previous opponents were mediocre to poor. And in reality Lacy was severly overrated. Those that can't see that...well blame it on what ever you want. Stupidity. Intoxication. Doesn't really matter.

What people refuse to acknowledge is that Lacy was & is a hell of a fighter.

He fought some game opponents to be so early in his career & he took on the best Super Middleweight of the last 5 years...so just out of curiousity...at 168lbs...Jeff's fighting weight...who would you rather him have built his wins over?

Calzaghe's the best super-middle of the last 10 years, by miles.

Based on what? Defending the crappy ass WBO title so many times? Beating shot, past there prime ex champions? Or is it cuz he beat a young title holder who wasn't as good as he was made out to be?
