      Out yourself, thread starter. There's no way I'd let an anonymous alt of mine take credit for something as magical as this.

      Highlights - The Hearns/Calzaghe comparisons, and the Lacy/Leonard retirements reference

        If the Jones-Lacy fight comes off, we'll finally have a group who are on the same level, if not even better.

        Calzaghe, Old Jones Jr, Lacy and Sheika.

        I see Calzaghe as the Hearns of the group. Technically very gifted, fantastic jab and devastating power. Like Hearns, JC fought several prime ATGs in multiple divisions.

        I see Old Roy as Hagler; rock solid chin, great stamina
        , never takes a backwards step. Like Hagler, he hasn't stayed in the sport too long or continued fighting when a mere shadow of his former self.

        Lacy of course is Leonard. The blurring hand speed, amazing skills, and an expert at movement and timing. He's only retired one time in comparison to Leonard's 47 retirements, but other than their records are pretty much identical.

        Sheika is of course Duran. The greatest inside fighter of his era, fearsome punching power and title reigns that spanned 3 decades.

        I'm going to wait and see how Lacy-Jones goes before deciding which 4 deserve to be rated higher, but you guys have to admit that there's not much in it.
        Brilliant
