      Calzaghe will be remembered more, but prime Winky was better and really was something to see.

        JOE for sure! i love wink but the work rate alone would be a bit much for wink. plus wink had a good defense but didn't have actual stopping power. Joe in a very close fight for sure!

          I think it's argubale, despite thinking Winky isn't at all a lock for the HOF.

          I really don't rate Calzaghe highly at all on any list other than the ATG SMW and British fighters list.

            Winky fought guys in their primes and took a lot of challenges. He also fought far better opposition.

                winky by far. remind me those who picked calzaghe, at what point in time was he ranked in the top 3 on the p4p list. retiring with an undefeated record and claim to be great but you never cracked 10 ten on most p4p lists b/c he didnt fight anyone. winky was concensus #3 p4p for a while. nobody wanted to fight him. joe had the more glorious career b/c of promotion but winky is by far the greater fighter by far. lmfao to the guy talking about winky vs. calzaghe. winkys was a small middleweight and legit 154 most of his career.

                  Ok I'm flopping. I was thinking late winky... the winky that showed up against Vargas was a beast! and he did take on challenges. i just the weight difference could be a slight issue.

                    In fairness, Calzaghe was considered a Top P4P fighter on most list's for the last part of his career.

                    Not that that really means anything.
