    Did Ottke win all 4 titles and win the ring mag title? No. Just another **** statement from you and as good as Otkke was he was a clear loser in 1 or 2 of those.

    One sided beatdown. In Jones' favour.

    Depends on Jones in on Steroids or not. He did not do all that well without them :deal

    What did Toney ever do at SMW? He's a very skilled boxer yes but he didn't have Calzaghe's dedication. If people are gona compare Jirov to JC they can get real, JC's a different class p4p. What did he beat. 10 former, current of futre champs in his career.

    Calzaghe the greatest in terms of longevity. Most good fighters didn't stick around at 168 for too long.

    I am one of the most dedicated Calzaghe fan boys here on ESB, but Calzaghe vs Ward is a 50/50. Ward seems like the real deal to me.

    I think Ward's a very good boxer but I think Calzaghe would have beaten him. It's not a given and I'm not going to put him on his resume (like Jones and Toney fans think they can with Calzaghe).

    That was a past prime Calzaghe with shot hands, he was 37 years old. He went down cause Roy hit him with a forearm (accidental), not a punch.

    I would say yes right now he is. But by the time Ward retires I think he will have accomplished more and will be the greatest SMW of all time. Time shall tell
