    Calzaghe is Top 5, definately... Only Brit-phobes and idiots wouldn't see that...

    IMO, the only fighters possibly above him are Hatton, Mayweather, Pac and possibly Taylor...

    Give JC the respect he finally deserves!

      Cali is not top 5. He beat Lacy who's not a p4p great. He just exposed Lacy as a green and overrated fighter.

        Joe's dominated the division for years, remains unbeaten and beaten a supposed superior fighter with extreme ease. Longest British World Champion as well, and there is no-one at 168 and the divsions immediately below and above whom Joe can't beat at the form he showed yesterday!

            Just ask yourself... where would you place Lacy on your p4p if he would have won last night....


            Again:
            I created this thread just to piss some people off saying that Calzaghe is p4P top 3.. But all jokes aside.. he is top 5 in my book!

            1 - Undefeated
            2 - 18 Title defences
            3 - Unified champion
            4 - Just schooled a "He is a Serious Force" fighter of the year!

            and don't even compare this fight to Wlad / Peter... Wlad outclassed Peter and survived to a disision...

            Calzaghe completely nutralized Lacy and put him though clinic

              Calzaghe beat the hell outta Lacy and my hat goes off to him for that. He definitely moved up several notches in my book but pound for pound top five? Comon now. Lacy is one fighter, Calzaghe beat this one guy Or at least one guy who was supposed to be a super force and a mega fight. There are other fighters out there who have won big fight after big fight. If he can beat Tarver or Glencoffe then he can move into the top five. If not then he is in the top 6-8.

                Being unbeaten either proves you're an elite or you just fight bums. Just like what Chavez did in his first 50 or so fights.

                Beating a green Lacy catapults him into the thick of things. He's at the back end of the elite list by beating Lacy. But to rank him with greats is in reality very premature. One win doesn't account for much if you cannot sustain it.

                If Cali wants to be recognized as one of the elite p4p then there's Wright and Taylor for him to beat. Cali has to prove more.
