    Anything is possible but I'll say this, I would love to see this fight if it ever materilized. This is another Pacquao/De La Hoya fight and it would be interesting to see what you guys think if they were ever to fight at a catchweight. Who do you guys think wins this dream fight?

    Been done before (not the fight, the ****ed up idea)

    Calzaghe would brutalize Mayweather, anyone who says different needs help (or a slap)

    According to Mayweather he thinks he would kick Joe's ass and he might have good reasons to believe it being that Calzaghe could fall into the same trap De La Hoya and Roy jones Jr. fell into. I'd still like to see it though.

    I don't think he would ko PBF at 168 but would def win the fight...I mean he is giving up wayyyy too much weight

    If Castillo beat Mayweather, imagine what Calzaghe would do.

    Calzaghe by a BRUTAL KO in the early rounds.

    Highly unrealistic unless you give Calzaghe a 168 weight limit and Floyd weighs in less than 160 to be prepared. Floyd would be a fool to blow up to 160 at a weigh in. In any case Calzaghe whoops his ass but probably carries him to a decision.

    The De La Hoya/Pacman fight was unrealistic and pac started off as a flyweight and look what happened there. He would be skippking weight class just like Pac did. If Floyd keeps the same speed moving up, he beats Calzaghe IMO.

    Unless the MW division goes to **** in the next few years Floyd can only dream about beating Pavlik/Abraham or any decent legitimate, full sized MW.
