    :patsch You really need some type of power to envision how the match would play out, there is really no way of knowing. Hypothetical matchups are pointless.

    By the way, I am not a Calzaghe fan boy :yep

    That's like saying I need a crystal ball to envision how Danny Garcia would do against Roberto Duran.

    Some matchups are just pretty obvious.

    But judging by your response, I'm guessing you know very little about Spinks.

    It is all speculation until someone proves otherwise. People see what they want to see.

    Oh BTW genius, your argument makes no sense. You basically laughed at me for saying Ward and Kov could have beaten Joe.

    But Calz beating Spinks? Ohhhhhh, that's a perfectly acceptable opinion to have...

    If you want to talk to people who deal with hypotheticals, you should visit the classic forum. I am a scientific person, I see absolutely NO POINT in dealing with hypotheticals, NONE. I need evidence before my very eyes.

    Calzaghe beats both Ward and Dawson. Too much workrate and too slick. Same with prime Hopkins.

    Prime Roy vs Joe is the key fight we sadly never got to see. Same with prime Roy vs Tiger M.

    Calz is one of the best ever. He really was that good.

    Why does he want to insult himself like that. He's much better.

    which is why he turned down offers from both of them......


    must be the same reason he always turns down or wiggles out of chances, or tried his hellbest to wiggle out of with someone decent all his career....cos he was too good for all these top boxers LOL. but Veit was good enough.....will mcintyre was good enough... joe never tried to wiggle out of fights with serial weakling unknowns.

    Would Floyd have beaten Lacy, Kessler, Hopkins or Jones?

    I rest my case
