    Trindad was a Welterweight naturaly that does not come close to what he done to Pavlik or Tarver. Tarver and Pavlik would both have smashed Tito because like Bernard they were just to big for him.

    Nards win over Tito is what it is....The fight the sprungboard his career. Nothing more and nothing less.

      Is it really THAT hard to answer?

      Why are you not giving Calzaghe credit for beating someone you said he needed to beat in order to be proven?

        Let me put Hopkins' name in the question so maybe it's clearer to you.... lol

        Why are you not giving Calzaghe credit for beating Hopkins when you said he needed to beat Hopkins in order to be proven?

          I think everyone knows the answer and understands your point.

              you want me to give Calzaghe credit for beating a 42 year old? he beat Hopkins that is good for him. It is a good win but nothing more. It isn't a "great" win. Greatness requires defeating greatness. Calzaghe hasn't done that yet. Calzaghe doesn't even deserve to be in the HOF.

                    You're not, it is just that we all know Calzaghe could find the solution to world hunger and this guy would still write him off as a bum. What is the point?

                      Calzaghe could be 0-55(55ko losses) and you would say that he is the GOAT.
