        You obviously dont like calzaghe, whatever you think of him he was a hard fight for anybody because of his awkward style and workrate. I think it would be a toss up against hopkins but imo a prime rjj beats calzaghe (and everybody else too).

          He would've lost to both worse than he lost to Robin Reid.

              Jermain Taylor outworked Popkins 2x. Roy Jones was overrated and ducked tough comp in his prime.

              Just saying.

              I'd go and say that Roy Jones taught Mayweather how to duck people on HBO.

              He's the OG when it comes to that ****.

                    Prime Roy never fought nobody like Cal. Ya'll musta forgot who retired undefeated.

                    Calzaghe likes guys that fight like Roy, he woulda clowned him in his prime the same way he did at MSG.

                      If calzaghe was a bum as they say and so crap he would never have beaten hopkins for example, even at hopkins late stage in life, if you think about it you will know this is true. He beat hopkins fairly comfortably by the end imo, thats the reason hopkins was faking his low blows, he was outworked and exhausted at that stage (still very good for a 40 something ill give him that)
