      Winky... he had a style that a lot of fighters couldn't deal with as well.

        As if Joe had stopping power..

            Calzaghe will be remembered as greater but he really shouldnt be.

                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.
                >>>Joe was ranked as high as p4p#2 on some list..was this a serious post?

                      Calzaghe

                      Undisputed SMW Champion. All belts in his possession.

                      Retired as legitimate LHW Champion. Jones > Tarver > Hopkins > Calzaghe

                      Undefeated.


                      Winky Wright

                      Famous for beating Mosley twice at 154 lb.
                      (A weight Mosley has always performed poorly:
                      Lost to Oscar, was even with Vargas before the eye stoppage,
                      rubbish against Mayorga and Mora)

                      Drew against Jermain Taylor in his challenge for the Middleweight title.

                      Lost to Hopkins and outclassed by Paul Williams.



                      My Verdict: Calzaghe by landslide.

                      It's an insulting comparison.
