is Joe Calzaghe the greatest fighter in the last 20 years?

[slimshandy69]

44-0, no one got near to beating, him, he out landed everyone.

Be honest, whos better than him. He beat everyone put n front of him, all his mandatorys, beat the Top US competition, Top European competition.

He a ATG imo.

thoughts?

His 2 stoppage wins over Veit were something to behold. So happy he was a part of my era.

[The Big Dunn]

no, he isn't. but he is a HOF'er without question.

[LeG00N]

I'd say Pacquiao but he's definitely in the top 5

[Sugar Adam Ali]

I think joe was a great underrated fighter,, but he is not the best of the last 20 years,,
floyd, manny, roy, all better,,,

Joe was great, hall of famer,,, just not the best...

We don't have enough Joe Calzaghe threads in NSB.

We almost went ten minutes this afternoon without one.

[Dirk Diggler UK]

It's actually 46-0

And it's in the last 100 years.

[Mr Ehrmantraut]

Listen yeah.

[Ezzard Charles]

NO.


robin reid taxed his ass and got robbed.

bernard took him to school.

I wouldn't say he's the best. But he's up there. Having an 0 doesn't mean much to me, because we have to look at who he fought and when he fought them. His best wins are Kessler and Lacy, and Bika if you see his accomplishments after losing.

He's got a lot of names on his res but RJJ Hopkins, Eubank etc were all out of their prime. In the past 20 years, we've had Tyson, Holyfield, Lewis, Hopkins, RJJ, Toney, ODLH, Pacman, Mayweather, Barrera, Morales, Naz etc etc. I think Joe is up there but I can't say he's greater than some of the names I mentioned.
