I wouldnt say anything against the the Welsh Dragon .![]()
As i said earlier
Jeff Lacy
Just were never that good as shown by Vitali Tsypko twice Omar Sheika,Peter Manfredo,Epifanio Mendoza, Jermain i can no longer stay upright Taylor,Otis Griffin and Roy Jones.
Mikkel Kessler
I thought was a good win till Andre Ward did alot better job.
Bernard Hopkins
Who i thought won as do many others.
Roy Jones
Well Danny Green proved how shot Roy was and lets bare in mind Roy dropped Calzaghe heavy in the 1st round.
Thing is with Calzaghe he came along at the right or wrong time Eubank,Benn and Collins were past it or retired Jones and Toney had out grown the Super middleweight division and no matter how many times Calzaghe said he struggled at the weight mainly after boring points wins he never moved up till it was to late and against old fighters past there best.
He pulled out of good fights or didnt sign for whatever reason even Frank Warren has said this about him that he pulled out of about 10 fights he lined him up. Like Antwun Echols, Syd Vanderpool, Glen Johnson and many more.
I think the 46-0 blinds a lot of people come on shoot me down.![]()

Fuck me, have you got nothing better to do??
dont Fuck with the chuck
Why talked about hate regarding Calzaghe
he's done what he's done, he's a living legend in his weight class.
Wonder who changed my title bet it was MR FACT.
I only did this as people start there own thread then it gets taken over by hate for Calzaghe and we drift away from the threads original point.
Well, he forearm smashed him. Plus the Green fight just shows you what can happen when you get hit on the top of the head/back of the head.
Calzaghe actually boxed Kessler, rather than butted him silly
You could also argue that Calzaghe completely ruined Lacy. Sure he was hyped, but the majority of his fights post Calzaghe, he had to deal with a bad rotator cuff injury. That injury coupled with the fact you've lost your air of invincibility also badly effects a fighter.
Hopkins also showed how good he is given the fact 2 of his most impressive wins came either side of the Calzaghe fight. I had Calzaghe winning the fight.
I'm not saying he's the 2nd coming or anything, but the shite he gets on here is unreal at times.

I'm the same don't think he's a legend, but certainly one of the best of his era and earned the right to be first ballot canastota.
retrospectively tarnishing his opponents is bollocks, does Duane Thomas and Terry Norris surpass Marvin H for doing better jobs on ~Mugabe and Leanard respectively?
The guy beat everyone he ever fought
FENSTER i wouldnt , no couldnt ever back Calzaghe in any fight.
Id back you FENSTER if you fought Joke Calzaghe.![]()
Joe has only himself to blame for this thread. He could have and should have done more between Eubanks and Lacy. Ottke was a joke ready for the taking.
Do not let success go to your head and do not let failure get to your heart.
