calzaghe will never lose. he's the only person i know with no 'CTRL' on his keyboard simply b/c he's ALWAYS in control.

[S A M U R A I]

Joe wins this.

LOL at ******s claiming SRR would win this easily. How many of these ******s are old enough to have actually watched SRR fight and how many are video tape fans? Just like those idiots with Marciano, Frasier sigs-clowns. Dont give a **** about reputations, SRR would have lost-simple. End off. Period.

BTW, ******s: SRR has himself gone on record to state that Joe is as good a figher as Duran, Marvin Hagler and Thomas Hearns.

LMAO. I read the title as Sugar Ray Leonard. A hahahah.

But you wrote "SRR" 4 times?

Calzaghe's size advantage could pose a little trouble but Robinson would definitely beat Calzaghe.

How? SRR is made for Zaggy....

Joe on points.

Robinson wasn't a god, but he did have god like abilities in that ring.

Name another fighter who could knock a man out while going backwards, let alone a fighter as good as Gene Fullmer.

Floyd Mayweather Junior for one.

Robinson never faught below Jr. Middleweight... and I only saw one fight at 154... the rest were Middleweight and Super Middleweight

failure 1) ray robinson was at his best as a welterweight, it's just that no footage of it exists. many historians agree that in a head to head match up, he'd beat every other 147lber in existance up to this day.



failure 2) 154 never existed during his time.


failure 3) 168 never existed during his time



epic failure.

Ray had a long career at 135 and peaked at 147. He did win the middleweight, title, but he was much more beatable in that division, and it's where nearly all of his losses are.

In Ray's era of same day weigh-ins and no tweener divisions, Calzaghe would be a light-heavy, maybe even a smallish heavy. That's a division Ray only dipped his toe in once. He fought well against Maxim but lost, and imo he realised he'd overreached himself at 175, hence never stepping up that high again.

So it's essentially a great welterweight versus a very good light-heavy. Ray is obviously several rungs higher than Calzaghe p4p, but in a head to head, peak vs peak match-up I favour the good big man against the greater smaller man.

I have not even read any of the post on this thread and i can tell you Sugar Ray Robinson any day of the week however if it was a 50 year old Sugar Ray Robinson and a 35 Joe like he likes to do it then Joe might sneak it.
