    If Calzaghe wants to be considered a true great, he should fight Dawson and Pavlik AT THE SAME TIME, with his legs tied together and wearing stuffed pandas on his hands instead of boxing gloves.

    Then he should drop down to 135lbs to fight Manny Pacqiuao, then up to heavyweight to fight the Klitshkos.

    If he does all that, then maybe he can be considered a Hall of Famer.

    he should also hire the services of mayweather sr and ditch enzo in favour of a more hands on approach.

    good day.

    Nah, he just shouldn't fight boxers that are close to shot, or just shot.
    A Pavlik or Dawson would do just fine. :thumbsup

    i don't know about tieing his legs, but the stuffed pandas might do the trick. don't forget he also has to be american citizen and have his own gangsta rap video. this isn't the westside, it's the welshside! hey maybe roy can help him.

    Those measures would all help bringing him closer to general acceptance. You forgot the main parts missing from his skill-set though - apply for US passport! and begin to say "I is..." and "you is..." a lot.

    I'm sorry but I won't give him any credit until he goes back in time and fights a prime Tyson.:bart

    a 43 year old took him to a sd you really have no argument for and all time great status on him. he should have destroyed the old guy.

    I think personally he should face both the Klitschko's and all of Floyd Mayweathers Entourage, with the help of Audley Harrison and Amir Khan.

    yes a future hall of famer like audley would do wonders for his mojo!

    khan would clash a little with the cutsman.

    Great Michalczewski avatar.

    That is another underappreciated, great fighter.
