      I won't argue there. I've never genuinely called into question Calzaghe's boxing skills (however awkward and hilarious he is to watch at times), and always enjoyed watching him fight... well, against non-spoiling opposition anyway. Fights like Bika and Salem were horrendous.

      On the other hand, Hatton's hugging style with zero regard for defence often frustrated the hell out of me.

          Hatton wasn't scared to fight prime top competition outside of europe something that other "top" british fighters have been criticized about... Even though I'm not a fan or Froch I also respect him for doing the same...
