    Calzaghe would be a bad style matchup for Floyd with his volume.

    I say Floyd.

    Floyd fought and beat a world champion in his 18th pro fight. Calzaghe was fighting the likes of Warren Stowe in his 18th pro fight.

    Always been my sentiments. 2 guys doing pretty much the same thing at the same time does NOT sit well for either fighter.

    Calzaghe arguably lost to an old blown up Hopkins, Mayweather beats him easily.

    Stop being silly you are supposed to be knowledgeable about boxing. Those lacking knowledge might think you are serious.

    Floyd's overrated. Calzhage is underrated, but it doesn't matter. One is top 30 P4P, the other is 130.
