JOE CALZAGHE retired p4p no1 in world will it ever happen again??

[armyash]

Reckon i actually have more respect for Clinton Woods!

U must be English lol

lol

Dont get me wrong, Calzaghe was a top fighter and accomplished a lot but not going to America earlier and fighting Jones and Hopkins sooner he let himself down. Especially after what he said in his book about Jones being old and washed up. He pulled out of fights with regularity and we were sold polished turds as worthy title challengers. Fair enough he took the Bhop and RJJ fights for his retirement fund and i wouldn't begrudge any fighter lining their pockets but you have to take the criticism that will go with that in regards to making excuses for the fights not happening years earlier.

I think JC accomplished a lot but his career could have been so much more. A couple of contentious decisions with no rematches to think about too. It doesn't matter really because in 50 years time all people will see is the undefeated record and wins against Bhop and RJJ and consider him one of the greatest of all time. The Kessler win for me was a great performance though and Lacy too.

There sure is.

Calzaghe was born in England. Currently resides in England.

His heart CLEARLY belongs to the nation he was born in. Fact.

Joe Calzaghe was my P4P number 1 and is quite clearly the greatest fighter in the history of the universe. Mayweather? Ali? None of those fuckers could throw a hundred punches a round and then snort a line of coke in the corner.

And Joe could knock his opponents out, just by slapping them, fucking dude was amazing.

What Fenster is saying , is Calzaghe was actually born in Hammersmith england , yes he has an Italian father ,Yes he fought for Wales , but he was born in England " FACT "

JC as never number 1 p4p and we all know it.

BUT - 'Past his best Hopkins' has cropped up again! I don't care if Hopkins is 65 years old, his performances against Tarver and Pavlik are better than anything he produced in his so called prime (except for maybe the Tito fight)

2008 Hopkins beats 1993 Hopkins FACT!!!

1. What is "Welch"? Grape jelly? YOu mean "Welsh"?, illiterate?
2. Calzaghe is Italian idiot asswipe.

[brocktonblockbust]

Frank Sinatra, Joe DiMaggio, Rocky Marciano, Rocky Graziano, Jake LaMotta, all considered themselves ITALIAN-Americans, not just Americans. Calzaghe is Italian, Enzo is from ITALY. The name CALZAGHE is Italian. His DNA is Italian. He is Italian. If you are born on Mars, are you a Martian? Hell no. You are what your DNA is. Can't change that ever.
