Yea I do...I am not a huge Calzaghe fan. But when I see people say stuff like "he's not top 100P4P"...I really wonder if they've actually sat down and come up with a top 100p4p to where they were able to reasonably list 100 other fighters without considering putting Calzaghe's name in it

I could make a top 130 P4P and argue how Calzaghe does not belong there. I am will not leave him out of the top 130. But, if I wanted I could easily put 30 of the honorable mentions ahead of Joe.Comment

Hell Paul Williams has a better resume then Calzaghe and hes ten years younger.
Calzaghe is prolly #199 on the 200 GOAT list.Comment

Lets not get carried away... P-Will does not have a better resume. And, Joe could easily be in the top 125 all time. I could see how people might have in the top 100. But, I wouldn't put him there. And, if anybody puts him near the top 50? Well they obviously don't know what they are talking about.Comment

It's very simple Calzaghe has a better resume than Pavlik right now. However, Calzaghe is 37 and retired, and his resume is not that much better than Pavlik's. Pavlik is 27 and in the prime of his career. Which means he has 10 years to get to where Calzaghe was when he retired. A fight with Williams, Sturm, and a move up to 168 to challenge those guys and it's a wrap.Comment
