      So you find it unacceptable for two fighters past their prime to face each other (Cal vs Hopkins/Jones), but you think it's perfectly alright for a fighter past their prime, looking to retire (Calzaghe) to fight a young up and comer 10 years their junior (Dawson)?

      You're a hypocrite.
      Hopkins was 36 when he fought a 28 year old trinidad. Hopkins fought pavlik when he is 43. He fought Joe at 43. Hopkins is a past his prime way more then Cal-slappy, and still beat him in REAL boxing fans books.

      So just because He is 36 he shouldn't fight Dawson?

      And he chose to come to America and fight hopkins, and Jones after their primes when he could have came over 3-5 years ago when they were 1,2, p4p. Calzaghe shouldn't even be in the top 5 P4P with Pac, Marquez, Margarito, Williams, etc.

      He said the Jones fight was the best fight of his career. That is pathetic because Jones Is WAY past his prime, SinCE he got knocked out cold. He is a great just because he beat a 2008 version of JOnes. He isn't a ATG or a HoF in my book. His so called BEST WIN doesn't compare to any other greats Best Win. And thats straight up.

            You have to be beating valid names in the sport to become #1

            if Pacman wasnt beating Morales, Barrera, Oscar, Diaz, etc etc he woulnt be #1 either
            im not on about resumes im on about boxing skills two different things

              I rate Pacquiao as #1, but you're entitled to your opinion.

              I think Joe is very underrated by Americans and is one of the 2 or 3 best of the past decade 1999-2008.

                  Sure, P4P is really about current ability rather than credentials.

                  However...
                  The only way we can monitor a fighter's current ability is by observing
                  how he performs, when tested to his limits by good competition.

                  Now, if all a fighter ever faces are tomato cans and worn-out boxers,
                  the sort that he can volume-slap to a decision win, then no one can really
                  say that he's so good. In fact, ducking the best opposition actually suggests
                  the fighter can't match up, which discourages ranking him high on any
                  P4P list.

                  That clear enough for you?
