    top 10 ****ing nonsense. this is why the guy gets so much **** because his idiot fans making ridiculous statements.

    Calzaghe wouldn't even make a statement like that himself, but when you have people saying it for him it really pisses people off and frankly why he gets called a bum despite being undefeated and having beaten greats like hopkins.

    I think he was a great fighter, I have him about 960 atg. Could have squeezed into top 500 had he ever fought anyone of note that was not past their prime.

    46 and 0 compared to your arguement of Floyd's 42 and 0. He must at least be above Floyd. :!:

    come on you are clearly biased ...

    1) he retired undefeated with fine record 47-0
    2) he reign his division with 20+ title defenses (beating a quite number of belt-holders)
    3) 2division Ring champion
    4) beat two other ATG (past prime tho) + 1 HOF
    All above constitute his resume.

    So to be fair name 10 names who can either surpass or equalize these 4 points ...

    For example:
    Hopkins
    1) will retire with fine record but a few loses as well
    2) reign his division with 20+ defenses
    3) 2 division Ring champion
    4) beat three ATG names + some HOF candidates
    Hopkins > or = Calzaghe in terms of resume.

    Calzaghe was one of my favorite fighters but the top 10 is a little to high,

    top 30 yes but top 10 or 15 no. i mean its no disrespect to him as a

    fighter its just who do you take out and put him in front of him on

    the atg list.
