Interesting how Joe Calzaghes legacy has changed Over the years

[IronDanHamza]

Never changed for me.

Incredibly poor resume.

A grand total of 3 fighters beaten who were ranked in the Top 5 of the division being fought in.

Lacy, Hopkins and Kessler ?

It's interesting how highly Clazaghe is regarded all these years later.

Hasn't change for me, great resume and a highly skilled SMW.

Yep those 3 are the 3 Top 5 guys he beat.

Hopkins he arguably lost and Lacy is garbage so there’s that aswell.

How he was inducted into the HOF I really don’t know but it happens.

I started a thread Calzaghe vs Froch. I really don't know who would win. But I pointed out that Froch fought much better fighters.

Lacy was P4P King before Calzaghe ruined him. Only Calzaghe beat the real Lacy, after that every loss Lacy had were like Mike Tyson's. Past prime so they don't count. He also beat late-bloomer Hopkins smack **** in the middle of his peak. He beat Kessler far better than the Nutcr@cker did, and made Roy Jones Jr at the back end of his prime look average. He also refused to give Froch an undeserved payday, so that's kind of like another win as well. He was a helluva fighter. Nash out

What?

[Nash out]

What?

At the time Froch was not worthy of the fight. Calzaghe was correct to retire, unlike Lennox Lewis who ducked his rematch with Vitali because he knew he was going to get smashed to pieces, and that a very lucky cut would not save him again. Nash out

Ok retirement is different but you still can't call it a "win."
