    He doesn't look like Tyson and never has.

    He may be the same height, but that is where the physical similarities end.

    For a start, Tyson is clearly mixed.

      I really like Joe, I think he is our second best after Lennox, however I wish he had that one fight where people could say "well look there is a legend fighting" I don't think he has had a defining fight yet.

        How does everyone rate him and his career?

        I like him as a person because he is a great guy who does lots for charity (and he was born in London, which is where I was born) and I was impressed to see him beating young World Champions such as Jeff Lacy and Kessler when he was an old man (35).

        However, I feel that his promoter has maybe protected him too much just to keep that amazing unbeaten record going.
        10/10, best boxer ever, ray robinson aint got nothin on the speed and power of joe calzaghe

            Good luck in your retirement, Joe.

            One of the longest reigning World Champions ever.

                That is true, but Joe only ever beat seven World Champions/former World Champions

                Ray Robinson fought a couple more greats than Joe did.
