    What was wrong with Woodhall? I would favour him over many today. Consider Woodhalls career was short but he beat the WBC SMW champ, he beat a future SMW world champ, beat a former world rated SMW champ

    You must remember Veit, he was the fighter who took Brahmers 0. Brahmer who now late in his career is still top 5 LHW and 2 time LHW champ :oops::lol:.
    Veit has a better SMW than many top 10 today

    Veit was bang average, he fought nothing but club fighters in 4, 6 and 8 rounders prior to getting his WBO shot. The fact you have to big up someone like that says it all about the strength of Calzaghe's record.

    Everyone with a brain knows Joe was a far superior boxer.
    Everyone knows Froch has a far superior resume

    It is what it is

    Exactly, I'm a froch fan but I know he would have lost to joe. But these idiot joe fans thinks he has a great CV. He doesn't !!

    Doesnt sound good for this current era then as Veits SMW resume is above many of the current top 10s SMW resume

    The win Calzaghe had over Veit was a very good victory.
    The first time Calzaghe beat Veit, Veit was 30-0 and hadnt beaten anyone of real note, hence he was blown away in a round by Calzaghe.
    When Calzaghe beat Veit a 2nd time Veit was an accomplished world rated 45-1 world rated fighter and WBO int champ who had some solid victories behind him, and was top 10 rated.
    Veit had beaten undefeated Dziarra who wasnt a great fighter but did go on to beat L Mock and undefeated M Oral who would go on to challenge MW champs A Abraham and S Sylvester recently.
    Veit had also beaten beaten undefeated Guerrero for the European union title.
    Veit beat future title challenger Salem and Mock.
    Veit also beat world rated former SMW champ C Brewer with an educated destructive 9th round KO.
    A note on Veit. He only ever lost to world champs or fighters who became world champs and has victories over Mock, Salem, Perdermo (a future Kessler challenger), Brewer when Brewer was world rated and Veit beat undefeated Brahmer who is now the current regular WBA LHW champ and former (never lost in the ring) WBO LHW champ.
    A good Calzaghe victory over a mandatory world class SMW
    Also a great away victory for Calzaghe in Germany
