    Easy.. Mayweather Jr.

    Calzaghe didn't fight the same opposition Mayweather fought.

    It would have been better if the thread was who is greater between Pacquiao and Mayweather

        But it's established Pac s greater than floyd.
        It's only natural Floyd will be compared to other unbeaten fighters, as that's the selling and talking point and if Floyd comes out with most respect out of the unbeatens-credit to floyd.
        Floyd has pluses and minus and so does calzaghe

          Putting the contrast another way, anyone single one of mayweathers's top ten wins eclipses joes entire resume.

          You are comparing an ATG with a titlist with a handful of recognised defences, whom are ten a penny.

          These guys are poles apart.
          The thread does have some value, it shows how records can show polar opposite factual information.
          See this is where talking in hyperbole backfires

          Is Cotto a top 10 win for Floyd? A shop worn cotto

          Prime unbeaten kessler is equivalent to a top 5 win by Floyd, that was a damn good win

          Obviously Floyd has a lot more depth, but don't be ****** lol.

              Exactly, you are right about that. IMO between a lot of unbeaten fighters, Mayweather deserves the most respect.

                I like both fighters and since this is so one sided I wanted to say something to put Joe over, but, I really don't have ****..Floyd's just better in every metric. Joe's a great champ though....y'all go a bit far in your criticisms.

                  There's not much between them but I will say floyd, the alternative is Floyd fans hi******* this thread and asking for trouble
                  I’m hogs king this thread
                  I have stated Ployd ain’t undefeated his bill chit record. Castillo beat him


                  F Floyd. He did beat de la ***** , he beat Mosley .. Ortiz was a punk azz hoe.
                  I was shocked when he took out corralles

                  I know boxing I fight

                  I stopped hating Floyd ( he’s a cheater) gets awY with it...

                  My wife just says who cares that Floyd cheated..

                  I care.

                    Floyd's win over Pacquiao is better than ANYONE on Calzaghe's resume.

                      You must be thinking of the times he was trying to get RJJ and BHop in the ring but they wanted none of it from the guy who beat Eubank and Lacey and, well, everyone.
