Who ranks higher? Mayweathe or Calzaghe?

[Sugar Adam Ali]

floyd was p4p before he even started this fake gangsta style.

i believe he was on the p4p list in 98,calzaghe didn't make it till he was already near retirement thanks for proving how much of a novice you are.

Exactly,,, good point,,, floyd has basically been a p4p guy his entire career, and the amazing thing about floyd was that genaro was his first name fighter,, floyd just didnt work his way up, he took a huge fight in his 17th or 18th fight in 1998 and has been on the list ever since,,, that is an amazing feat,,

[Gorilla Dog]

Floyd has been champion since 1998 in multiple weight classes not to mention he is the ambassador of the sport of boxing right now. Other than Calzage been unbeaten there really is no comparison between the two

[LacedUp]

ok dude,, i hate to do this to you cuz i like you but im gonna have to do the unthinkable and put you on blast and defend floyd...

1. corrales is a much better fighter than lacy ever was,,,, Lacy is calzaghe 2nd or 3rd best win,,,

2. Hatton is a hall of famer and was a great fighter in his prime,, that was a good win for floyd and equal to the kessler win for joe,, which is another top 3 win for joe...

3. Castillo was a great fighter of his era,, not an ATG but def HOFer and best lightweight resume of the past 10-15 years or since mosely,,,
floyd beat him twice, yes the 1st won was close and could have gone either way but the rematch settled all doubts,,,, Another great win for floyd...

4. Hopkins for calzaghe was a great win,,, just like oscar was a great win for floyd,, both about even because it was aging champs on the last hurrah but still really good fighters,,,,, If oscar would have kept fighting at 154 he could have picked up some more belts just like hopkins has,,,,
I think these wins are about even...

5. but then you have to consider that floyd has also beaten genaro, who was a great champ, and mosely, cotto, zab, and lineal champ baldomir,,,

6. floyd just has more depth at his resume,,, i havent even talked about the manfredy fight, or ortiz and ghost,,, canelo........

7. floyd's resume is superior to joe's.... i dont even know how this is debatable,,, Joe was a great fighter and one of my favorites, but it would make me an idiot fanboy to think joe's resume compares to floyd.....

I hope you understand now

Please don't big up that win for Floyd.

Oscar was merely a shadow of himself, 10 years past his prime and came off a very inactive and unimpressive run.

Glad some came up with a resume challenge that Mayweather could win. About time!!

[Scary]

Sir Joe owns Floyd at every turn......

"44 have tried, 44 have failed" - Floyd Mayweather

"Yeah but at the end of the day, 46 have tried, 46 have failed"- Joe Calzaghe


"Every undefeated fighter I faced took a loss" - Floyd Mayweather

"Yeah but at the end of the day, you only faced 2 undefeated fighters, I faced 5 at the end of the day"- Joe Calzaghe

hahahahahhahaha!!!

So Oscar absolute prime was 1997 if I comprehended that correctly; so that means he shot for the Trinidad fight now I see thats why he lost thanks for clearing that up

Oscar's prime was from the Chaves fight to the second Mosley fight at best. He topped the P4P ratings in 97 and 98 so, yeah, I would say that was his prime.

If you think he was prime for Mayweather then you don't know wtf you are talking about.

[IronDanHamza]

Calzaghe in his entire career fought 3 fighters ranked in the Top 5 in his division.

Mayweather fought (so far) close to 15 and is still going.

Not even close to debatable.

That's not true.

Calzaghe fought:

Eubank #9 (ring)
Woodhall #8 (ring)
Reid #9 (ring)
Brewer #5 (ring)
Mitchell #6 (ring)
Kessler #2 (ring)
Lacy #3 (ring)
Manfredo Jr #10 (ring)
Sakio Bika #8 (ring)
Hopkins- Champ
Jones jr #7 (ring)

I count 4. Regardless, you know there's a difference between staying at 1 (2) weight classes for your whole career and jump up and down between 6 weightclasses.

Oh sorry 4 then, not 3.

I'm not sure what rankings you're going off on Chris Eubank because he hadn't had a legitimate win at 168 in about 3 years and was unranked at 168 when they fought.
