people hate on here the exact same way they hated on calzaghe before he laid all the doubters to rest.

They thought mitchell would be too much, thought lacy would be too much, they thought kessler would be too much, they thought jones jr would be too much, they even thought hopkins would be too much

Exact same thing with froch, the concensous before the fights with pascal, taylor and dirrell were conclusively that he would get his arse handed too him.

Some of the american posters on here are desperately bitter about joe calzaghe, they fought they had the top boys for an entire generation and have now had to face the realisation that the true all time great was sitting at home in newbridge, wales watching the likes of jones/toney/hopkins on tv
