Is Joe Calzaghe the best fighter Roy Jones will have fought?

[TommyGunn.]

Many people thought that Hopkins took Calzaghe to school as well. Tarver actually had an excuse. He was 200+ pounds when he came back from making the rocky movie. He was weight drained, however i would have still favored Hopkins over him but it would have been a much more competitive fight.

Also, Calzaghe was accused on avoiding Johnson even when he wanted to come to wales to fight. I would give the Johnson that beat Jones and Tarver the first time a good shot at upsetting Calzaghe.

Only people who dont know how to score a fight.

Ive seen poll's on this board, ESB and Saddo and they all had Calzaghe with over 70% of the vote.

Tarver is NOT on Calzaghes level. Tarver is NOT even on the level bellow Calzaghe (the hopkins level)

Thats actually laughable. Hopkins is on another level than Calzaghe if anything. He has fought the better fighters and is known for fighting more pound for pound quality fighters as well. Calzaghe has beaten some good fighters, but which of the fighters were in their prime and who did the younger champions beat? Who has Kessler or Lacy beaten?

I scored the fight a draw, but you could make a case for either guy winning. Hopkins made Calzaghe fight his fight for half of the fight and Calzaghe made some technical adjustments while Hopkins fadded.

You say that Tarver is not on Calzaghe level, when he has fought much better fighters than Calzaghe has. Calzaghe is more accomplished of course, but didn't fight the opposition than Tarver has.

Mikkel Kessler would beat any fighter that Hopkins beat. So your wrong again.

Hopkins best two wins are tainted against natural WW's, his next biggest win was against Winky who was almost 3 weights above his natural. LOL!

An if you scored Hopkins vs Calzaghe a draw it tells me all i need to know about you....Hater!

No he isn't. He is one of the best, but no where no the best fighter that Jones has faced. John Ruiz, Virgil Hill, Bernard Hopkins, Tarver, Johnson ect are all some very good fighters and are hall of fame worthy. Eric Harding was also a very underrated skilled southpaw that gave Jones fits, the fight was close until Harding broke his ankle and recieved the TKO loss.

WTF!?!?!?!

Yes, Calzaghe IS the best fighter Jones will ever fight...

We are talking pound for pound. Hopkins never fought consistantly at super middleweight so we can not judge by that. Also, i would favor Tarver over Kessler convincingly. Kessler is untested at the elite level and hasn't beaten anyone that stands out. He is a very good fighter with very good skills, but he is very overestimated on this forum. Tarver has beaten far better fighters than Kessler has and is more accomplished. Hes just the better fighter overall.

[TommyGunn.]

WTF!?!?!?!

Im still LMAO @ that too.

[Sir_Joe]

Tarver is no better than a piece of turd! Kessler would ruin that fool, hell even Lacy would.

What you smoking dog.

Wow, being 17 really makes me not know anything about boxing. This is coming from a poster's who has Calzaghe in both his avatar and signature. I should really listen to you.
