like this one

hopkins wouldn't let calzaghe hit him with his wide inaccurate punches. still lost. hopkins landed all the clean punches and buckled calzaghe 5 times in the fight. still lost. calzaghe is that good!

i'm not going down the triangle route. i'm going down the style route. bute fights completely square just like calzaghe and he couldn't avoid froch's shots because of it. calzaghe might have a better chin than bute but he has even worse defense.

Bute couldn't take Froch's shots, it's nothing to do with avoidance. When he got hit, he got hurt.

Calzaghe could take a good punch, we saw that enough times during his career.

Ok so you say he fought B-Hop 8,000 miles from home like that's some big deal but think nothing of the fact that Hopkins was 46 years old or of how utterly shot Roy Jones was? Then you mention Reid, Mitchell, Lacy, Bika, like they were some great opponents? Oh yeah you have no bias at all

'like that's some big deal'? how many times did Bernard Hopkins travel 8,000 miles to a foreign country, with a foreign ref in his career?

You only have to look at the reluctance of the US fighters to head to Russia or the Ukraine to fight so-called 'paper' champions to know how hard fighting away from home is, hell most of them won't even come to the UK never mind Eastern Europe.

Home advantage is huge in boxing, greater than any other sport but Calzaghe still got it done when he was past his prime and yet all some want to do is bash him.

Also Hopkins was 42 (not 46), Joe himself was 38 or so, age is hardly relevant unlike the Hopkins/Dawson fight.

Jones was shot but Jones was a drugs cheat anyway, so the so-called prime version doesn't mean a lot to me.

taylor fought a better version of hopkins than calzaghe twice, prime winky, prime pavlik twice, prime abraham, and prime froch. calzaghe fought prime lacy(bum) and prime kessler and a whole load of tomato cans. you should give credit to taylor for being a fighter and taking risks unlike calzaghe. yeah he lost most of the time but at least he fought. you don't get credit for avoidance.

None of the guys Taylor beat were beating Calzaghe and better still none of them were prepared to come to the UK to fight the champion. Pavlik still won't come to fight Froch.

I like Taylor as a fighter and I give him credit for taking the fights however, the point stands that while they both beat Hopkins Joe never lost his other bouts - Taylor did.

I didn't even bother reading your response. I don't care if you love Calzaghe. Everyone knows his deal peace

calzaghe got dropped and seriously hurt by kabery salem and byron mitchell. even old geezers hopkins and jones dropped him. i wouldn't say he had the greatest chin, he just didn't fight any great finishers like froch.

the crowd was 99 percent pro calzaghe and so were the commentators and judges who thought calzaghe won round 2 while landing zero punches. what an advantage for hopkins!

calzaghe was 36. he keeps getting older and older every time his fans talk about him.

joe never lost his other bouts but who were they against? taylor fought the much better fighters hence he lost more. that's like saying chris john is better than pac because they both beat marquez but john didn't lose any of his other fights.

Do you know how meaningless that statement is?
Breidis Prescott is the greatest boxer of all time. Here's why: (courtesy of bojangels)


Prescott beat Khan, who beat Maidana, who beat Ortiz, who beat Berto, who beat Quintana, who beat Paul Williams, who beat Sergio Martinez, who beat Pavlik, who beat Jermain Taylor, who beat Hopkins, who beat Tarver, who beat Roy Jones, who beat Ruiz, who beat Holyfield, who beat Tyson, who beat Larry Holmes, who beat Ali.

Therefore Breidis Prescott beats Ali

You are joking, right? Kessler beat Froch less then three years after he lost to Calzaghe. The two fights were also in the same weight division. And you want to talk about meaningless. Your silly little scenario was over a 28 year period and spanned nine different weight divisions. Geez, you guys are going to bust brain aneurysms when ole Joe gets elected into the Hall of Fame.
