    Tua only lost to the best but atleast he stepped into the ring against them. He was also a very avoided fighter in this prime so he never reached the potential that he should have. And Tua has probably the best chin in boxing and the sickest left hook. Calzaghe never fought any great prime fighters and right after he broke free from his manager(warren) he vowed to fight the best fighters that Warren would never set him up with. but then he fights 43 year old hopkins and 40 year old Jones and retires. Even Warren set him up with more live fighters.

    There is much more to like about Tua than Calzaghe.

      sure, hopkins and kessler for starters.
      I'll go as far as saying Jeff Lacy is a better fighter and better win then Rahman. Lacy has never been ko'd and shows way more talent then hasim rahman has ever had. Heavyweight division is a joke, that is why calzaghe should be easily winning this poll. But I guess since so many ppl hate calzaghe they'll just vote for tua.

      Tua even drew with Rahman in the rematch, what a joke... The heavyweight division is laughable.

          really. you think 43 year old hopkins and Kessler who hasn't accomplished anything thus far, are better wins then a KO over a prime Rahman? Rahman went on to KO Lewis don't forget. Not to mention that Calzaghe "barely" etched out a win over old man hopkins. I'm not saying that the Rahman win is super great, but it is a better win than Calzaghe's best win.

            ok well, same thing. how many fighters has hopkins and jones fought that were in their 40's or even close to? cuz you know that hops and jones would have been eaten alive by boxing fans if they ever even stepped into the ring against past prime or shot fighters which they never did. And thats something that Tua never did either.

                  lol

                  i'm a fan of tua because i liked watching him fight.

                  NOT because he was the greatest.

                  NOT because he was the best.

                  NOT because he was undefeated.

                  a fighter doesn't have to be any of those things for a fan to like him.

                  if you say your a fan of calzaghe that's fine.

                  just don't say he's the greatest because he beat roy and bernard.
