Kessler is the best he's fought and Kessler is barely an above average boxer. I'm not saying that Calzaghe is bad, but one of the best p4p? I don't think he belongs in the top 10 even. If he gets into the ring with Hopkins, Pavlik, Taylor, or Wright and beats either one of them, than he belongs, otherwise, he is way too overrated.
        Your absolutely kidding yourself. Calzaghe is three times the fighter Hopkins is, Roy Jones Junior is and Pavlik are. From middleweight to light heavyweight Calzaghe is the king. The second best fighter in these three divisions is Mikkel Kessler, Calzaghe was a class above Kessler.

        Your argument makes no sense. In fact i make the argument that Calzaghe is still under rated considering he is only number 3 on the pound for pound list. That makes a lot more sense then your argument.

        Rediculous. None of the fighters you mentioned can even make a fight close with Calzaghe. Watch when he fights B-Hop. There will be a lot of hype but Joe C will win by a very wide UD.

            It's not all about opposition. Watch him fight.

Answer no, cuz its not the records, its the oposition that counts. If hopkins fought in Denmark or England all his life, He would be 53-0 instead of 48-4-1.
              Kessler beat Mundine. And i rate Mundine a good chance of beating Pavlik when they face in the future as SMW. So much so i will start him at favourite. SMW is the second strongest division in the world. Once again your argument makes no sense mate.

                First of all, Calzaghe is a great fighter, he's not overrated, everyone should know this.
                At this time, Joe beats Hopkins in a solid UD. Prime vs Prime? Who knows? I'd back Hopkins
                5 people?
                Kessler
                Lacy
                Eubank
                Robin Reid
                Sakio Bika, Recent winner of contender, has a solid resume, he's no walk in the park.
                Not to mention that Joe has over 20 title defenses.
                A guy like Calzaghe should be called anything but overrated.
                Like someone previously said, "only in boxingscene".
                I'm willing to bet all my points, when the fight is official that is.

                  And out of those 5 people who did he have the toughest fight with? Hopkins is on another level man...

                    Nope. I rate Kessler as a better fighter than Hopkins. You will see when Joe C beats Hopkins. No doubt.

                      Didn't winky just beat hopkins and was robbed and winky is a way smaller guy then Hopkins. Hopkins fought dirty as **** and ppl still scored it for winky.
