nah... pacquiao's #1... when he defeats david diaz he'll be 4 time divisional champ (I count the ring belt at 126lbs).
Pacqiuao destroyed all the old men he fought... Calzaghe barely beat Hopkins
5.
wbc flyweight. ibf superbantam. ring feather. ring and wbc super feather. and if he wins that adds lightweight.
Does everyone no what pound for pound means? cos most of you seem to think if a guy loses his last fight he cant possibly be pound for pound, or in manny or joes case, if he doesnt look amazing winning his last fite then he cant be it...
Pound for pound was made as a fantasy to say if there was no weight class and we and nothing to think about it was jst 1 guy vs 1 guy, so say Joe C vs Manny Pac who would win........ and Joe would win that fight so pound for pound he would be better
LOL really buddy? First off in a P4P battle Pac would absolutely ROCK Cal.
Also P4P isnt who would win, its who is better overral, regardless of weight class.
p4p negitive
Floyd Mayweather has retired for a few months, cherio.
Calzaghe is now P4P #1.
u must b stupid!!
1. he didnt beat hopkins
2. he's a uk fighter that hasnt fought any-1 good, besides the lose 2 Hopkins
3. there's better fighters now such as cotto & manny p.
This is your #1? Fuck outta here.

Lmao!!!!!!!!
oh so then 21 title defenses against who?
then sven ottke should be the greatest 168 pounder ever! he has many defenses and a 0.
End of Story,
Wether you look at skill or resume, or both calzaghe isnt the best in boxing.
Because Chris John doesn't have 21 title defences, because Chris John has only beaten one "name", because Chris John is not undefeated for 18 years...
There is a lot of reasons.
unbeaten is overrated. brian nielsen was 49-0 once.
and joe had 21 title defences but the majority was the wbo. wbo might be considered somewhat of a major belt now but 10 years ago when joe won his belt the wbo was a joke. the wbc , wba and ibf wouldn't let their fighters fight wbo champs because of politics. that's why joe's defenses were not against top caliber opposition. obviously not a fault of joe's but more of his manager who protected him too much.
joe won his first belt when he won the vacant wbo title in '97. manny won his first belt a year later and it was the wbc flyweight title which he loss at the weigh in when he couldn't make weight. manny has been fighting top caliber opposition just as long as joe and they were much better opposition.
According to the thread starter, Ricky, Joe C is now the #1 P4P. His a boxing fan, a Joe C fan. So to him Joe C is #1.
Lets just follow the P4P rankings of the media, the Ring Mag, Boxing Digest, Boxing Monthly, BoxingScene, ESPN, etc....
Good point why isnt Chris John p4p king then? lol
he is undefeated defended his title and beat JMM...shouldnt that 1 win against a legend already make him p4p king?
thats funny cause thats all Calzaghe has is a win against a faded legend who is in his 40s!
but yet these people say he is p4p number 1 over pacman?
its lame they are just fanatics.
Pavlik should be ranked higher then Calzaghe to me.

pacman can box good enough to knock down marquez 4 times! and he's not a boxer he's a slugger so who cares if he's outboxed if he lands the heavier punches?
a 41 yr. old hopkins dropped joe. i thought joe was a GREAT boxer? joe won the hopkins fight by swarming like manny does. did he outbox a 41 yr. old? no he outworked him and outpunched him like manny did. only difference is when manny swarms he landed more cleanly and with more power.
The way I see it is... You can't out box a fighter who isn't willing to box himself.
Hopkins staying on the ropes and bouncing off them with a head butt and maybe a 1-2 and then clinching is not boxing, not in my opinion anyway. Calzaghe did what he needed to win, nothing more, nothing less.
WTF? and joe C can?
what the fuck kinda style is that just cause he is from your country you gonna big up him? hatton and calzaghe both lack boxing skills...pacman makes them look like shit...go watch pacmans carefully he has under rated boxing skills.
he has good timing when he counters he just loves to go for the ko when he hurts a guy.
joe C is a slap boxers he can throw gay slaps at you for hours to get a stoppage.
lame.
You don't see me taking cheap shots at Manny so please, grow up.
A guy who only "slaps" and can't box does not out box one of the best technical fighters today, Mikkel Kessler.
The only thing that kept Pacquaio in with a technical fighter like Marquez was his power, knocking him down 4 times in two fights.
Pacman knocked down Marquez 3 times! and he still managed to cock up and only get a Draw.
Pacman can't box for shit.

pound for pound joe is better? if manny and joe was the same weight joe would win?
forget p4p. manny at 130 probably cracks as hard as joe at 168!
p4p...... the hopkins joe beat this year can beat the marco from 2001? hopkins at 41 is less washed up than erik? erik almost won a freaking 135 belt after they fought.
