    Reason: Calazaghe didn't leave UK till later in his career. Didn't fight RJJ in his prime. Naseem went to the US and defended his title FIFTEEN TIMES winning IBF, WBO, WBC and technically the WBA. Lennox unified the HW title, and beat Holyfield. Vastly underrated HW. Same as TJames Toney, underrated, but that's for another thread.
    nice, but not sure naz won anything other than IBF, lineal and WBO.

        He won the WBC when he beat Soto. He also beat Vasquez who was stripped by the WBA for choosing Naz over his mandatory.

            Yes, I believe so. Bhop and Jones were beyond their best. It's the manner in which he won too. He made an impact in America. Calazaghe was largely forgotten in the US after those fights.

              I couldn't stomach Calzaghe's style .

                  jeez calzaghe wasnt even the best brit of his time in even his own division after froch left him trailing in his SMW wake.

                  Still makes an entry in a modern Brit top ten though.

                    Pocket Rocket should be on the list imo.
