    If Calzaghe had not retired, where would you rank him?

    If Calzaghe had not retired, where would you rank him in the P4P rankings?

    I'd rank:

    1) Pacman
    2) Calzaghe
    3) JMM
    4) PBF (he'll go upto 2nd after he beats JMM)
    5) Mosley
    6) Cotto
    7) Kessler
    8) Donaire

    cba with the rest


    Know, I know Calzaghe beat past-prime Hopkins and RJJ but many people still consider Hopkins one of the best P4P, which has got to count for something - he's certainly the best LHW imo, which means Calzaghe would be the best LHW (well he did win the Ring LHW title of B-Hop after all)..

    I think after the RJJ fight it was a good decision to retire, there were no more lucrative fights left for him. But had he not retired, he would have probably fought this summer and beat anybody put before him meaning in my mind he deserves no. 2 spot on the P4P list. After all he was undisputed SMW champion and has wins over Kessler (best active SMW), BHop (best LHW).

    Just voicing my opinion.. What do you all think?

      1st at the moment because like everyone says Pacquiao shouldn't be there so for me it would be first untill the Floyd fight!

                  He was #2 when he retired so unless Somebody beats him he would still be rated at #2 to this day.

                    If you think that's bad, look at the Posts per Day. The dude posts more often than most Viagra spambots.
