    Calzaghe's first big Fight was 3/4/06 against Jeff Lacey. So for about 9 years since he got the Title from Eubank, that is his first big fight. And that is because Lacey TRIED to Unify, something Calzaghe wasn't doing to protect his 0.

    Ten years ago Calzaghe fought Rick Thornberry/David Staire/ and Sheika.

    The only thing that Calzaghe fans have to say that they feel makes Calzaghe an ATG is his undefeated record. If he had one loss, he would be forgotten for having a BUM belt (WBO) for TEN years and not trying to get the other belts.

    Have the WBC WBA IBF and fight real fighters in your so called TITLE RUN. That title run shouldn't even be considered great by just what title it is. He fought Bums with a Bum belt.

              Oscar absolutely point blank refused to fight southpaws until Pac, then got the **** kicked out of him. Yeah, Oscar is amazing and ducked nobody!

                  yeah its odd... but then again, i have read cliff rold's article on both...

                  he stated calzaghe as an ATG... & oscar a "mere" HOF... here it is again...

                  for oscar's case... http://www.boxingscene.com/?m=show&id=17277

                  for joe... http://www.boxingscene.com/?m=show&id=16920

                  almost nobody agrees in this particular thread though..

                    aside from winky and maybe kostya , oscar fought everyone that would have made him money.

                    oscar was about the money not about ducking.

                    if he could make money fighting you he would.
