The winner of this tourney will have to be atleast p4p number 5 AT LEAST!!!

The winner will also have a better resume than Calzaghe?

Yes no discuss.

I like either Taylor or Kessler in this thing.

Taylor and Kessler won't make the semifinals.

There are MANY fighters with better resumes then Joke Calzaghe.

If Taylor won it (dont think he will) and beats Kessler in the process he'd have a great shout at saying he had a better resume.
then'd he share 3 of Joes best wins, Kessler + Hopkins + Lacy

Yep top 5 at least i agree

He's just asking if the winner of this tourney would have a better resume than Cal. At least, I hope that's all he's asking.

I imagine the winner would get a top 10 spot on the list.

taylor might not be the most likely person to do it but i'd be rooting for him to do it.

Taylor is the best fighter who cant get over the hill and get the win. two losses to pavlik (both were winnable fights) the first fight he almost had him gone in the second round but go too excited and punched himself out without putting his punches where they need to go.

and the froch loss was another close one. on my card he would have won if he hadnt gotten knocked down and ultimately stopped in the last round of their fight.

so those are really tough losses to swallow.

if he would have put pavlik away in the second round of the first fight he would have been the king of middleweight and probably avoided a rematch altogether (because if you remember correctly many were calling pavlik taylor's best possible opponent and taylor was making pavlik look real bad up until he punched himself out after dropping pavlik in the second round. a good clean shot landed by taylor would have put pavlik away due to how hurt he was after the KD).

just my opinion.

he's very skilled and born with great boxing talent. he just needs the right trainer and disciple to bring it out. taylor on his best night wins it.

Calzaghe could come out of retirement and still win this thing and then retire again just to rub his greatness in the haters' faces.
