Is Calzaghes resume good?

Yes, one of the best in modern boxing.

He has one of the better resumes of the fighters currently fighting now adays. So, I don't know what is up with the hate. Is it the greatest resume ever? No of course not, but it is a good resume still.

Agree, He got some serious names on his record, he a bit like Aaron Pryor in that no one wanted to fight him in his prime.

yes, i can only think of a handful of active fighters with better resumes.

Eubank - Old and past it
prime sheika - Almost lost and a mehh opponent
prime reid - Actually lost and a mehh opponent
woodhall - What?
veit(calzaghe took his 0 from him) - Who?
lacy(calzaghe took his 0 from him) - Was always **** and couldn't stop a sitting duck.
kessler(calzaghe took his 0 from him) - The only decent win in Clownzaghe's career.
bika - Almost lost and a mehh opponent
hopkins - Lost this fight against a 43 year old atg
Jones Jr - shot doesnt even describe jones at this point

1 good win mates. An utter ****stain on the great sport of boxing.

Calzaghes wins:

Eubank
prime sheika
prime reid
woodhall
veit(calzaghe took his 0 from him)
lacy(calzaghe took his 0 from him)
kessler(calzaghe took his 0 from him)
bika
hopkins
Jones Jr

I don't agree. That argument falls and actually looks ****** if you compare Calzaghe with.... ANYONE good, even from this era. See if you consider Veit, Reid, Woodhall, Bika or Sheika (none of which i really know who they are and i'm sure i'm not alone!!!) who would you have to consider for Mosley, Forrest, Glen Johnson, see? It will look ******. Anyone can look great compared against no one but this will fall if you compare Calzaghe with Hoya, Mosley, Mayweather, Castillo, even Hatton in my opinion, Bernard Hopkins, Glen Johnson and Tarver (sorry it's a repeat) who actually defeated near prime Jones, in 2003-4. Take the much hated Floyd Mayweather, many hate but it is a fact he was p4p #2 three years into his pro career! He was a champion in 5 different weight categories and p4p #1 from 2005 to 2007, when he retired as the only undefeated 5 division champion. Still doesn't make Calzaghe's claim look ******? ok, so try looking into de la Hoya's resume, a 6 division champion or maybe trinidad's. Try Castillo or even Ricky Hatton who is at least par with Zaghe no matter what happens on May 2nd. The excuse i predict people will try to slide in here will obviously be "he didn't have the chances to prove himself because he was from Europe!" BULL****, look at Hatton, Lewis, amongst others like the Klitschkos (these guys are protected as **** but still.. you know about them don't you!?), they are renown fighters worldwide. Another thing, if you think an undefeated white fighter over 20 fights has any problems finding a fight ANYWHERE on this racist world, you are full of ****, sir. Is JC a good fighter? Yeah, kinda. But his "greatness" fails blatantly when compared to others considered "not as great" fighters.

can you ignore this guy deadpool?

no need to agree with idiots.

he has a very good resume but it could be better.

imo even when you look beyond the names of eubank, hopkins and kessler you have to respect that brewer, sheika, reid, lacy, RJJ and woodhall are pretty good opponents.

Funny, all the people who voted NO also happen to be some of the biggest trolls on this forum
