      1) Mayweather
      2) Roy Jones
      3) Lennox Lewis
      4) Ray Leonard
      5) Roberto Duran
      6) Marvin Hagler
      7) Tommy Hearns
      8) Larry Holmes
      9) Mike Tyson
      10) De La Hoya
      11) Trinidad
      12) Hopkins
      13) Bowe
      14) Toney
      15) Morales
      16) Barrera
      17) Pacquiao
      18) Whitaker
      19) Chavez
      20) Shane Mosley

      Those guys have all had better careers with more impressive wins, a lot of them in more than one division.

        1. A thread about Calzaghe is created
        2. Bsriz*** shows up and says something factually inaccurate about Calzaghe
        3. Someone points out that bsriz***'s claim is factually inaccurate
        4. Bsriz*** leaves the thread, I begin to wonder if perhaps he's decided to actually watch some boxing before commenting in future.
        5. A new thread about Calzaghe is created, bsriz*** notices it and the cycle begin again ad infinitum

            That's your opinion I guess. Or is it? I mean you have a habit of copying and pasting things that you apparently don't actually believe so...

              It was a joke (no cut and paste.) I just dont see why people have to make ****ish comments to each other in every thread. I figured ****ing would break the tension.

                It's not like I threatened to kill his mother or something...but I get what you mean, a few people on here take things too seriously and probably end up bursting a blood vessel everytime they post.

                  Wins over an old Eubank, undefeated Lacy & Kessler and Hopkins for the Linear Light-heavyweight title is good.

                  But good enough to put him in a list of Top 25 fighters of last 30 years?

                  Not quite.

                  It's a shame Calzaghe is pursuing these big fights at the age of 36, when he should've been making these moves at 26.

                      The question should be, is he a top 10 in the last 30 years?

                      I don't know about that one...
                      He's not.............at all. Top 25 yes he is indeed.
