    calzaghe beats any version of eubank and i think Chris would admit to that

      Calzaghe is the best Super Middleweight of all time hands down. RJJ and Toney didn't fight long enough at 168 to be considered the best. To say Calzaghe would have no chance against those two is absurd, he is definately capable of beating both of them.

          Roy Jones and James Toney used 168 as a rest stop to go the higher weight divisions so Calzaghe is the best Super Middleweight ever.

          A prime Jones would beat Calzaghe, Toney vs Calzaghe would be a close fight.

              Eubank says he knows he'd have stopped Calzaghe, and Eubank is an honest man

                Who cares what Eubank claims or believes would have happened?? The so called "pillow puncher" Calzaghe knocked Eubank on his ass and he beat him up on route to a decisive UD. Calzaghe would beat any version of Eubank.

                  I definatly agree that they didnt stay there long enough to be rated but Im just purely talking about fighting. You could see how guys were at a weight even if its only for 1 fight and I think they would beat Joe. Shane I dont think ever fought at 140 but if you saw him at LW and WW then I think its ok to say that he wouldve been a beast at 140

                    Well, I think a lot of people? Eubank beat Calzaghe black and blue on a weeks notice, and he knows he wasn't near full-strength

                    The consensus opinion is that Calzaghe wouldn't have gone 12 with a prime Eubank

                      I can't see Toney getting close to Calzaghe. Everyone continues to underestimate Calzaghe. No one has been in his class, which is a negative thing for a boxing legacy. Calzaghe is king of SMW.
