    He fought:

    Mayweather the P4P Number 1

    Pacman the P4P Number 1

    No one Calzaghes resume comes close to that.
    He fought tougher comp so that makes Calzaghe a joke?

    Lww and WW has better comp at that time anyway

      And what else?? Hatton has 2 quality losses and like 1 or 2 "quality" wins. Calzaghe has more than that.

      Hopkins was P4P #3 when Calzaghe beat him. Jones was also ranked in the top 5 if I remember correctly at the weight they fought. Calzaghe also went up in weight to fight them.

      Also, how did Hatton do against those 2 P4P guys?? He got knocked the fuck out!! Why did Hatton only have the IBO belt apart from the Ring??

        Not many active fighters have faced the level of opposition Hatton has. Its one facing them, its another beating them.

        George Chuvalo faced Floyd Paterson, Muhammad Ali, Joe Frazier and George Foreman. Where does he rank?

            i guess if hatton had stayed in england and fought 20 easy defenses against guys like carlos maussa(jeff lacy) then beat a 40 year old mayweather by controversial decision and a 40 year old shot pacquiao then he would be as great as calzaghe. that's what calzaghe did and he gets rewarded. so easy to fool some people. he's not better than hatton just cause he's a better cherry picker.

              You just mae my point. I didnt say Hatton was this animal.

              Im saying that he came to America and got down to business making big fights. Calzaghe didnt.

                Calzaghe was 36-37 when he faced B-Hop and Jones. Calzaghe was a senior citizen too.

                So is Khan and Hatton making Bhop a joke?

                Joe was around 36 when he face Bhop/Jones, isn't Jones around 38 or something and two of Bhops best wins sandwich his loss to Joe (the wins were Tarver and Pavlik)

                Agreed!!!!

                      Maybe if certain fighters did not reject big money offers he'd have came over quicker.
