    I think Patterson would have won.

      I'm not saying that Calzaghe would win, but fights like Louis-Schmelling I and II show the difference between a very talented guy who is still green, and a very talented guy who has reached his peak.
      Sorry I meant prime for prime, say the Patterson that beat Moore and the Calzaghe that beat Lacy. I would pick Patterson KO he knocked out one of the best light heavyweights of all time in that fight, and completely dominated him with his speed power and footwork.
