The Top 20 Greatest Super Middleweights of All-Time

[Chase8400]

I have to agree with Calzaghe being #1 on the list based on division accomplishment but on pure skill and ability, it's impossible to overlook Jones and even Toney.

It is however cute that so many of the Calzaghe past opponents made that list or were ranked higher over more credible fighters. It is what it is but it looks a little like the ranking system leans Joe's way.

And Kessler #2? What a joke.

[IMDAZED]

I understand what it's based on. It's based on facts. But a system based on what past, present or former champions somebody fought is flawed. A 25-year-old, in his-prime fighter could beat up a 40-year-old fighter 15 years removed from his championship and get credit under this system. Think of all the fighters who beat way-past-their-prime Sugar Ray Robinson, Roberto Duran, etc. Is it a good system to reward, for instance, William Joppy for KOing a 48-year-old Duran?

Exactly.

Again, this is boxing. Love Cliff but this right here...yikes.

Calzaghe is the best Kessler isnt two and Jones and Toney are not top 10.

Toney and RJJ while being P4P great achived next to nothing at SMW. between then they have less than 10 title fights.

Toney at super middleweight has wins over Barkley, Williams, Littles, Thornton and DeWitt.

Jones at SMW has wins over Toney, Malinga, Sosa, Thornton and Lucas.

I'd take that over having a long string of title defenses against nobodies.

Who cares. You guys can sit here and argue all day, but Calzaghe is number 1, and I'll tell you why:

Because Danny Williams said so.

"He proved without doubt - not that there was any doubt in my mind - that he is the best super-middleweight in the world," Williams told BBC Sport Online.

How are any of those wins any better than Benn's, Eubanks, Collins resume?

Joe's achievements at SMW **** on everyone else's from a great height. Why is there even a question? FFS.
