Calzaghe & Mayeather's CV / Resume , is there much difference ???

IMO they are very similar and actually are very even , here's why :

Mayweather has had all his best wins and performance's early on , Manfredy , Corrales , Castillo 2 !!! , Calzaghe's best wins came late on , Kessler , Hopkins , Lacy !!!

Floyd has not gone into a fight 50 - 50 in terms of weight , timing of the fight , ability or with anybody at that time proven to be in or near there prime since his LW days . Mosley is a pick em fight clearly .......... but that hasnt happened yet .

Calzaghe on the other hand came on late , fought Lacy nobody gave him a prayer at his peak , Kessler at his peak and Hokpins whilst in the best form of his boxing career (ala Pavlik) IMO they are even !!!!!!

 

MAKE A POLL BELLPOT :good

Lets see the numbers

 

If fighters like Woodhall and Bika are getting a mention for Calzaghe then shouldn't the likes of Hernandez and Jesus Chavez be on Mayweathers slate?

 

Yes Gaz they should :good

****ing Bika and Woodhall :lol

 

oi!

 

fair point! but just look at the names and their biggest fights....

CALZAGHE = hopkins, jones, kessler, lacey, sheiker, brewer, eubank, bika

MAYWEATHER = corales, castillo, gatti, judah, de la hoya, marquez, hatton, ndou

... ok maybe i exagerated by saying its FAR better than calzaghes. but it is better i think. if calzaghe hadnt mashed up his hands so much and he had left warren early on, he would have a much better record.

 

What ? As much as I like Woodhall he is nowehere near the level of the fighters which Mayweather fought on that list. And why get shirty over Woodhall ? Bika was mentioned too :yep

 

Maybe?

:nono

 

Sorry mate, but I stopped reading here...Eubank was significantly worse than "maybe a little past his best"...he didn't win another fight. His last decent win prior to this was against Wharton nearly 4 years earlier

 

Calzaghe doesnt HAVE a resume. He has had three big fights that mean anything in his career. Eubank (shot), Kessler and Hopkins (44, some say he lost).

He ducked Taylor, Pavlik, Johnson, Dawson, Wright, Prime Jones, Prime Hopkins. Mayweathers record pisses all over Floyds. Period.

Maybe if Calzaghe fought some of these names instead of guys like Tocker Pudwell he would get respect.

 

The Mayweather selection picked by the OP is seriously light and missing several fighters Pep, Mitchell, Hernandez....Even Baldomir is ****ing better than anyone that that Welsh ***** has ever faced

 

Where is the thread starter ? I want this into a poll

 

He already has his answer:yep

 

I Agree Mayweathers record beats Floyds.......???!!!???!!!

It was hardly a prime JC against Eubank either

 

:think
