Looking back Calzaghe was pretty naive

    Still, it was a good career that falls short of all time greatness because of the lack of named opponents and fights.

      Calzaghe really did a poor job handling his career, arguably 4 of the 5 best guys he's ever faced (Eubank, Lacy, Bhop, RJJ and Kessler) have all lost stock. Setting up his own promotional company failed miserably and splitting with Warren for his final fight against RJJ caused him to split the purse 50/50.

      He shouldve fought Taylor when he was hot (MW world champ), unified with Kessler and then move up to beat Bhop

      He wouldve been more of a superstar had he done that
