    Floyd needs to clean up 147 then he become a modern great until then he is mr reward v risk.
    Shocking, come on now, serious question

    Are you impying Joe Calzaghe has fought better fighters than floyd mayweather?

    Are you impying Joe calzaghe has had a better career than Floyd Mayweather?

    Are you Implying Calzaghe is more skilled than mayweather?

    Which one is it?

It all very well looking good against sub-par opposition but its a different ball game when you fight real world class, i watched Nassem Hamed last night, same kinda thing, guy was fighting average guys and people were calling him a great, according to HBO 28/38 writers picked him over Barrera, you know what happened there.
      maybe but Naz was ultimately just a world class puncher, nothing more, nothing less.

      In my opinion that Barrera ins p4p a distance better than this version of Hopkins and better than any version of Hopkins, I won't say prime Hopkins, god knows when his prime was,lol.

      This slightly past his prime Calzaghe is also better than Naz too. Naz did almost everything wrong. But man I miss him, what boxing fan doesn't miss Naz.

        If he beats Hopkins whos p4p 2 or 3 then Pavlik another p4p fighter he resume is better imo.

        Floyd nuts keep living off the Chico and Castillo wins.

        Hatton was also a solid win but Hatton is no Welterweight.

        Calzaghe beat everyone at 168lbs including undefeated monsters who werte knocking everyone out.

        Why dont Floyd fight Cotto and Williams, either would be a career best win.

          Mayweather is not an all time great......

          Please dont make me have to compare De La Hoya's boxing resume to Joe calzaghe's, one guys best win is Kessler, the other consistently fought the best of his era.

          you are entitled to your opinion, most of which i disagree with. i don't think jt, floyd or oscar are atg's.

          many people have fought the best of their era, so what. it's not who you fought, it's who you beat. so what's the answer to the question?

            Fine, who beat better fighters, Calzaghe or De La Hoya? Real Talk now.

            And Before anyone Starts, no, Mikkel Kessler is not on the same level as Pernell Whittaker

              that's true you can't give props for losing.

              Retrospectively a loss isn't worth anything.

              Oscar can't be an ATG. Unless he beats Floyd.

                  Sweet pea was done he lost his last four fights including the Oscar loss.

                  People discredit Calzaghes win over Eubank so Oscar aint getting credit for that.

                  Quartey is Oscars best win.
