    I think Jermain Taylor can't beat Calzaghe...

        If you mean all those would stand a chance then fair enough, but I would pick Calzaghe as favourite against all of those except maybe Hopkins and Taylor.

            No way in hell Tarver comes close to beating Calzaghe now. He threw, what, 20 punches in the whole Hopkins fight?

              Bernard Hopkins
              Jermaine Taylor
              Winky Wright (maybe, depends on how he looks at the bigger weights)
              Mikkel Kessler (wouldn't favor him but he deserves the damn fight)

                Winky : Joe is too big (should be fighting at 175), powerful, and active
                b-Hop : the toughest fight on this list, but Joe would probably outwork him
                Taylor : power could create problems but I think Calzaghe would make him miss too much
                Kessler: presents a problem, but we haven't seen this guy depart from his jab-right "'Cause I'm bigger and faster and stronger." How much does the kid have in his arsenal, really?
                Tarver : not a chance


                I would pick Joe over these five, without worry or hesitation.

                But what the hell do I know?

                  I think the only interesting fight out of all that have been mentioned would be Calzaghe against Jermain Taylor. I still think Taylor lost against Winky and also in the second Hopkins fight but he has raw talent. If that talent can be harnessed and he improves I think he's going to only get better. He's young, strong and fast. Calzaghe would still be my favorite in the fight but I think Jermain is the only one who would have a reasonable chance of beating him if he comes with his A game.

                    I think Calzaghe would beat all 5 of those with B Hop and Taylor giving him the most trouble.
