    Calzaghe's adaption vs unbeaten Kessler (no blueprint) to unify all four titles and win over lb4lb #1 Hopkins (Floyd was retired) for Ring belt at weight above and the performance against Lacy (winning every second of every round almost) trump any of Mayweather's adaptations, wins or performances ever. He also had 20 title defenses against all styles and dominated fighters of superman stature in Eubank Sr and Jones Jr (not saying they were at their best, but of their stature!).

    So it's Calzaghe for me. He proved he could get off the floor to win too, win with literally one hand, all sorts.

    Jeff lacy has no notable wins before or after calzaghe.

    Lacy resume says he is trash . But calzaghe fans love to hype him. Lacy lost to a 60 year old roy jones ffs.

    Floyd win over corrales is better than any calzaghe victory including that razor thin win over b hop

      Canelo
      Corrales
      Hatton


      Thats 3 undefeated fighters at 3 different weight classes

          Floyd had more gift wins than jc also. Not that an.unbeaten record means much but jc can claim to be unbeaten, Floyd not so much

            They both have great records and both are great fighters in the respected times..

            Floyd is the bigger name so he stays at the forefront of people's minds especially as he likes the limelight and is talked side by side by our friend Pacman..

            Both have records not to be sniffed at, although Floyd has made the Zero some sort of holy grail for all the boxers over actually achieving something..

              Mayweather has a much better record. Corrales, Castillo, Mosley, Cotto, Alvarez, Maidana, Hatton, Marquez, Pacquaio, Judah, De la Hoya.

              Was Jeff Lacy much better than Andre Berto?

                      At least Enzo Macarenelli appreciates you arguing hes greater than Floyd.
                      Cos he stopped same Roy easily.
