    Calzaghe is Undefeated with 20 title defenses and he has been the champ for over 10 years at Super Middleweight. He is the greatest SMW of all time hands down.
    It doesnt matter how many defenses he's had. RJJ easily outpointed Toney who was ranked 3rd p4p at the time. Calzaghe has never beaten anybody that sniffed the top 15 let alone number 3.

      Again with people and their short term memories. Jones didnt lose until he was 35, and it was agaisnt a guy he had already beaten. It's hilarious how people forget how dominant Jones was. Completely dominant.

        Jones beat Hopkins, Toney.

        Calzaghe beat Lacy and Manfredo.
        I guess Chris Eubank doesn't count right? And Jones didn't beat Hopkins at 168, so that doesn't count. By the way, the combined records of Calzaghe's 21 title defence opponents is 579-43.

          Ya know what. I think Calzaghe would have beat a prime RJJ at 168. How about that?

            True except for that dumb ass move against Montel Griffin when he was 28, hitting him while he was down, though he definitely OWNED Griffin in the rematch. Jones didn't stay that long at 168 though.

                Listen. Prime RJJ was insane but let's be real, the ****in guy can not take a punch. Zag is fast enough to land.

                  So what you are saying is that Jones Jr. has a chin that is bad enough to crumble from a Calzaghe shot? Hmmm... low opinion indeed.

                    That's an amazing stretch.....how did you pull out that conclusion?

                      Because the one thing you never hear mentioned as a positive for Calzaghe is his power.

                      Calzaghe is one of those boxers who proves that power is a luxury and not a necessity to be a boxer. Winky Wright does the same thing.
