    I have him just outside the top 100.

    His resume isn't as bad as Tau is making out he has 10 or so respectable names on his resume, unfortunately for Joe the top 100 probably have 15-20 respectable names.

      Somewhere between 90 and 100 All-time seems fair to me.

        I said yes but I take it back now. I would have to say he is the second best 168 lb in the last 20 years behind Roy and ahead of James Toney. all together, I'd put Floyd, Bernard, Roy, Tyson, Lennox ahead of him and thats probably it. So number six in the last twenty years. I know some will say higher, and more will probably say lower but, I think his undefeated record should be respected, and he is as tough as they come.

              his resume is ****e for a supposed atg.

              10 respectable names? the guy's been boxing for 15-16 years. he's been a "champion" for 11.

              name the 10 and you'll realize it.

              respectable names don't mean great wins.

                Last 20 years?

                Erik Morales is ahead of him
                Marco Antonio Barrera is ahead of him
                Pernell is ahead of him
                Manny Pacquaio is ahead of him
                Julio Cesar Chavez is ahead of him
                Ricardo Lopez is ahead of him

                Between 90 to 100 IMO

                    The half of this forum who dont think hes top 100 are deluding themselves.

                    How many in that 100 have a better win % than Calzaghe?

                    How many in that 100 have longer title reigns?

                      That would be why he's outside the top 100 for me.

                      Eubank (WBO MW & SMW)
                      Woodhall (WBC SMW)
                      Reid (WBC SMW)
                      Brewer (IBF SMW)
                      Sheika
                      Mitchell (WBA SMW)
                      Lacy (IBF SMW)
                      Kessler (WBA/WBC)
                      Bhop (WBA/WBC/IBF/WBO MW )
                      RJJ (IBF MW - IBF SMW - WBA/WBC/IBF LHW - WBA HW)

                      Are or certainly SHOULD be respectable names on anyones resume.
