    Whats the bigger accomplishment? Calzaghe or Floyd

    Calzaghe moves up in weight to fight the best light heavy Hopkins or Having Ricky Hatton move up to 147 to fight him and destroy him at a weight class he has always looked horrible at. People like to use hopkins age as an excuse, yet Hopkins has been beating good/great fighters even at his old age.

    And its not like Calzaghe was a spring chicken either.

    The Hopkins win was better, but you can't even put Calzaghe's career and Floyd's career in the same sentence.

        Damn Mr boat buyer is popular around here. Bhop>Hatton, so that win is a bigger accomplishment. But Joe C didn't really defeat Bhop, he just edged a SD. Mr boat buyer KO'd Hatton. Joe over Bhop is a bigger accomplishment, Mr boat buyer over Hatton was a better performance.

          Mayweather beating hatton is not a accomplishment cause hatton was not fighting in his normal or natural weight class so i vote for calzaghe

            Calzaghe moving up to 175 to clearly beat, **** **** and humuliate #1 LHW Hopkins is definitely the bigger accomplishment.

              In all fairness, you should be comparing Fraud moving up to fight an old Oscar as comparable to Calzaghe moving up to fight an old Bhop. I had Oscar and Bhop winning both of those fights so...at least Calzaghe was aggressive and Bhop beat some ppl afterwards, so I'll give the nudge to Calzaghe.

                Calzaghe has the better accomplishment in terms of your question.


                Mayweather has a way better resume/legacy.

                  You put compared a single win. Not their careers.

                    Of course Calzaghe's best win on his 15 year resume is better than a win that Mayweather rarely even gets credit for nowadays.
