Ppl should stop this meaningless hate towards calzaghe its crazy, i dont get it at all, credit where credits due, wether he makes it to the Atg list or not he deserves respect for a formidable record and career
    all those guys were greater than joe.

    as far as who will fight him and who there is to fight......since when does that add to one's resume?

    the problem with joe is not fighting americans. he fought a lot of americans. his biggest win was probably a european , kessler.

    problem is joe did not fight anyone of note for over a decade. when there's no big name fighters in your division then you have to unify to get people to notice you. why joe waited over a decade to do so is beyond me. blame warren. blame him. doesn't matter.

        anybody can do that if they fought 44 bums and 2 future hall of famers who are past their primes...and btw i thought hopkins won their fight. calzaghe is a joke who avoided jones his whole career until he knew he was past his prime. jones would have killed him in his prime

            Ricardo Lopez. 51-0-1, to me he's 52-0 but officially he's 51-0-1.

              What about Larry Holmes? He was 48-0 when he fought Spinks and those loses can be debated.

                      You honestly believe Joe is better/greater than these two?
