Would Calzaghe make your current top 10 p4p list if he hadnt retired?

I Personally think he will come back for one more meaningless fight in cardiff for big cash so in my mind is more on a break like Floyd was. Anyway here is my 10 if he was eligible for inclusion.
1.Pacman
2.Floyd
3.Calzaghe
4.Hopkins
5.Haye
6.Cotto
7.Vitali
8.Wlad
9.JMM
10.Arthur Abraham

 

You've just set yourself up to be caned but you get respect from me!

 

Of course he would, being that he was still undfeated.

That's a whole other story, as opposed to comparing him to a prime Roy Jones like some JC fans like to do.


Keith

 

You'd have to have him in the top 10, although his wins are looking a bit less impressive every day. The real questionable aspect your top 10 would be Haye's inclusion (on the basis of his dominating majority decision over Valuev?), but that's really a topic for another day.

 

Yes he would, also have to agree with the previous poster isn't it abit early to put Haye on that list?

 

I can see your arguement on Haye. Although I would say don't forget his achievments at cruiser still stand. If you look at what he's achieved in his last 10 fights it stands against virtually anyone.

 

If he had kept fighting and remained undefeated, yes he would.

Check that, he could still have lost if it came to a top notch fighter and remained on the list.

 

Yeah

 

Good point. Always pisses me off that some people seem to think you become a bad fighter over night because of 1 loss. i.e. pavlik.

 

Would Calzaghe make your current top 10 p4p list if he hadnt retired?

Easy

Yeah course he would.

Where would be dependant on how the last year had played out though.

 

Of course he would....anyone that thinks B Hops is still top 10 HAS TO make JC a top 10 in the current PfP ratings. How can you not?

 

Easily. He, Pac and PBF would form a clear and formidable top 3. He would make it alot more respectable. Right now with Hopkins, Mosley and Marquez in everybody's top 5, guys who've been very inconsisent and obviously past their past it's looking a little stale.

 

course he would, he would have been undefeated and just defeated hopkins who was like number 4 on that list at the time
