              Shall wait to watch Hopkins Vs Wright, then evaluate hopkins's chances. at the end of the day he just decisoned of one the best fighters in the world, calzaghe says he is moving up after Kessler, who knows, should be a good fight, i hope if it happens calzaghe fans can become a little realistic over his chances, instead of delcaring that modern day legends like Hopkins and Jones Jr were afraid of Joe calzaghe, because both those names have been in the ring with much bigger names and better fighters.

                And what fighters have they been in the ring with those two that have moved as fast as calzaghe or had the agility, stamina, and even chin to go with his boxing skills? Name someone? They could have been in the ring with someone who has one punch out knock out power, but I get a sense theres alot of Calzaghe haters on this board that don't like to give calzaghe any credit.

                  Roy Jones:

                  James Toney at 168 > Joe Calzaghe, dont even compare calzaghe to toney skills wise.

                  Bernard Hopkins, bigger name, better skills in his prime than Calzaghe.

                  Hopkins:

                  De La Hoya is more skilled than Calzaghe and is very quick handed.

                  Roy Jones at 160> Calzaghe in every way.

                  Winky Wright > Calzaghe in terms of boxing skill

                  Tarver Is a much bigger name than Calzaghe.

                    You make no ****ing sense whatsoever.
                    Weren't you just bashing Calzaghe a while back?

                    You're on crack.

                    With that said, Calzaghe/Hopkins even two years ago would've been more competitive now.
                    Hopkins has slown down alot....

                    Joe by decision.
