Martinez made the most of his career, considering he had a late start. It was pretty sad to see his career end the way it did, but he still had a good run.
Calzaghe could have done a lot more earlier in his career. He has a record number of defenses, but spent years fighting at home against mandatories and no hopers. That Kessler win followed by money fights against Hopkins and Jones was a good way to end his career though.
Overall Martinez was an overachiever, while Calzaghe was an underachiever.
