Stevenson vs Calzaghe

I don't think JC get past the first 4 rounds, but if he does, he might take a very controversial dec

 

Calz makes Stevenson look foolish.

 

the haitian pacman would crush calzaghe

 

, Calzaghe never made anyone close to Stevenson level look foolish. Guy was in a life and death struggle with Bika ffs. And by the way he got dropped hard early against non punchers in his two fights at 175, the safe bet is that he doesn't survive long against a killer like Stevenson

 

Dropped "hard"? Those were flash knockdowns ffs.

You bring up Joes UD decision win over Bika when Stevenson got the same result with Bika even though Bika was 9 years older and faded as fuck?

You really need to get off of Stevensons nutsack and realize that he is a very basic fighter who has been beating up on a bunch of nobodies and no-hopers.

 

, these were not flash knock down,especially the RJ one, Have you seen these fight. I'm not saying he was on the verge of getting stopped, but he was hurt both time. And again at getting the same result. Yeah they both got a UD, but the way they got it was very different. Calzaghe was in a back and forth affair against Bika, and many think it was a draw or a lost for JC. On the other hand, Stevenson won pretty much every rounds against Bika (the scores were bullshit) and dropped him twice. Once again, it proves that you don't know much about boxing and you're prettyy much only a (bad) boxrec warrior.

And for a third time at Bika being faded. Guy just lost his SM title in the fight before, in a close one. If Bika was faded against Stevenson, then he was green as fuck against JC.

 

I think Slappy gets dropped hard and nearly KO'd early. Comes back and is kicking the shit out Stevenson late. Close decision or late TKO for Slappy Joe.

 

, again, JC never came close to kicking the ass of a fighter on Stevenson level. At the very best, against a guy like Superman, he clinch and slaps and wins close ugly rounds.

 

Calzaghe slaps him up.

 

Stevenson. But the real question is, who would duck whom?

 

I agree with Terp.

Joe survives some very scary moments early on, and comes back to dominate Stevenson late.

 

It's incredible to see how overrated Calzaghe is. Guess that winning a controversial decision over a geriatric Hopkins is a big deal for some. Wonder why nobody think much of Dawson then, since he looked much better doing so.

 

I'd bet literally EVERYTHING I have that the Hopkins of the Calz fight would embarrass Stevenson.

 

Lol fortunalety for you that you can't gamble on this, cause you would be a very poor man. That feeble old man would get run out of the ring by Stevenosn.

That version of Bhop was getting his ass whooped by Jean Pascal in the first rounds, and he only managed a draw cause he was able to mindfuck the immature cunt (which caused him to gas rapidly), and that a KD wasn't called.

 

Stevenson is a fraud champion.

 

Calling him a fraud is absurd. He beat the linear champ and some top contenders in his first few years. he turned into a joke in the later years, but that doesn't completely erase what he has done before.

 

Stevenson is pretty one dimensional and isn't very busy. He would need to land and hurt guys like Hopkins and Slappy consistently not just to win rounds but to keep from getting slapped up as PR said. He got walked down by fucking Andrei Fonfara.

 

While he is indeed unidimensional, Stevenson is in fact rather busy. He threw more punches in the Fonfara fight than JC did in the Bhop fight

And getting walked down by fonfara??? He lost a few of the middle rounds but was back in control in the late rounds

Sometime I wonder if you guys actually watch the fights and fighters you are aguing about, or you only construct little narratives in your head, facts be damned

 

Calzaghe wins clearly. The way he was able to adapt against Kessler during a fight would be worthy here and his footwork would be too much for Stevenson.

I'll wait for the '' attack since I too made an illegal pick

 

Picking Calzaghe is defensible (though I don't agree with it). Claiming that he would kick Stevenson ass or makes him look foolish, is beyond retarded, since the only decent (and even decent is a huge stretch) guy against whom he turned such a performance was Lacy (and anybody who can't realise that Superman is much much much better than this guy isn't worth debating with), and he struggled badly against numerous fighter that weren't close to the level of Adonis

And can't say that I,m surprised that you went with the white euro :)

 

Geriatric Hopkins my ass. In the previous fight Hopkins had dominated Tarver and in the following fight he dominated the previously undefeated Pavlik. Calzaghe deserves credit for that win.

 

Exactly.

 

don't be ridiculous. The guy was past 40 yo, and lost twice to a very ordinary JT not long before. It's obvious that at that point, Hopkins was badly on the way down, lost a lot of speed and snap on his punches, and was a lot weaker physically, not to mention his workrate that slide in the single digit.
He was able to turn some great performance against guys who fitted him stylistically, but this wasn't the Bhop of the turn of the century.

As I said before, the Bhop that faced Calzaghe needed a missed KD call to get a draw against Jean Pascal (not to mention that the was getting beaten up badly early. Imagin if it was Stevenson landing these punches), and was comfortably beaten twice (fuck the bullshit no contest) by Dawson. He would get run out of the ring by stevenson.

If we're talking about a prime Bhop, then it's a whole different story

 

hopkins even in his prime would have a tough task facing the haitian pacquiao

 

Loveland with the zinger

 

Even the Calz fight version of Hopkins had enough left in the tank to easily neutralize Stevenson's left hand.... which is literally all that dumb bum has.

 

Adonis Stevenson's Biggest Fan Strikes Again...

Post adjusted for accuracy.

 

yeah cause picking Stevenson against a guy who struggled badly against numerous B level fighter (Bika, Reid, Salem) and who was floored by non punchers in his only 2 fights at 175 is such a stretch

 

Picking Stevenson over any very good fighter is a stretch.
