    Kessler had a broken hand and didnt spar.

    Jones and Hopkins are ancient.

        Calzaghe was too quick for Kessler.

        I don't see Kessler beating him, only making it closer than it was.

        Maybe 115-113.

          I don't think you are giving credit to Joe at all. He didn't lack anything, had an underrate chin, very quick hands, and most of all could make adjustments and adapt during a fight, yes fighting rjj earlier would have been intriguing...

            Joe is a very, very good boxer. He has excellent handspeed, a tremendous workrate, and was awesome at making subtle adjustments mid-fight. He would have gone undefeated regardless of who he fought...Dawson, Bute, Ward, Dirrell, Pascal, AA...Froch, he would have either KO'd them or won a UD.

              Welcome to Joe calzaghe's world for every fight after 29. So if broken hands and not sparring mean you dont perform as well, then JOe Calzaghe was capable of sooo much more.

                  Err..... Joe had a great chin, and amazing recuperative abilities.

                    Indeed. Also an unmatched punch-output and a great fighting heart.
