    If you're talking most accomplishment in the division its clearly JC and if you're talking purely best ever at 168 its probably RJJ

    Depends on your conditions

    Head to head, RJJ.

    Longevity, Calzaghe.

    There's no such category. It's a practice zone for new boxers.

    Calazage admitted once in an interview he wouldn't beat Roy Jones for what thats worth. Most knowledgable boxing fans wouldn't give Calazage much chance against a 168 Jones

    Roy was the best to ever fight at 168.

    Calzaghe has been doing his thing - but he didn't destroy people like Roy did.

    I believe I can classify this as a case of Roy Jones amnesia, cause ya'll musta forgot

    RJJ is easily the best SMW ever, write it down
