    It is about age sometimes. Joey was nearing the end of his career and Roy clearly had more left in the tank after he demolished Jeff Lacy.

    Stop trying to discredit Joey.

    Give him the credit he deserves.

      Hey, I'm as big a Calzaghe fans as there is. But top 10 all-time? Yeah, that's a bit of a stretch bro.

        I give TS credit for starting a bait thread that doesn't involve Pacquiao, Floyd, and/or PEDs.

          I see your favorite fighter is Mikkel Kessler.

          HUH? Are you still hurt that Joey destroyed your boy?

            46-0 to 41-0

            You get the picture.

              Undefeated + He has 3 future HOF's on his resume + Greatest 168 pound fighter ever. Hopkins and Roy are Top 30 ATG's. Of course he is Top 10.

                You're right. Floyd is far and away better than Calzaghe. (In terms of talent, resume, etc.)

                  Once again, I'm a Calzaghe fan...........BUT: Based on his resume alone, he doesn't crack the top 10. He didn't fight solid enough competition throughout his career. He's got a decent resume, no doubt. But top 10? Get the blinders off man. I'd rank Bernard AND Roy Jones Jr. ahead of him all-time. And those are probably his two most significant wins!

                    skill level, no contest floyd is the better man. but, i'd say calzaghe has the better resume, regardless if he fought shot fighters, he still fought them. i gave him big credit for fighting jeff lacy back when lacy was comin up.

They like to say that Bernard Hopkins was old and past prime, but Hopkins is like wine and gets better with age - he proved this against Kelly Pavlik, even thought Kelly was fighting above his weightclass.


                      Record: Won 46 (KO 32) - Lost 0

                      WBO Super Middleweight Champion
                      IBF Super Middleweight Champion
                      WBA Super Middleweight Champion
                      WBC Super Middleweight Champion


                      Best Wins:

                      Roy Jones Jr
                      Bernard Hopkins
                      Mikkel Kessler
                      Jeff Lacy
                      Sakio Bika
                      Robin Reid

                      And a host of other names. Without a doubt, the greatest Super-Middleweight of All-Time & a P4P Top 10 fighter.
                      Dude, you sound just like Freedom Fighter. Just because people don't like Calz doesn't mean its because of his race. I don't like Wlad and get accused of hating white people because of it. That's just lame.
