    Calzaghe by domination.

    Unfair to think Duran could compete with an elite 168.

    Overall all time finish.......obviously Duran.

    dude, you cant think up of another match up other than a guy who started out as lightweight to fight at 168 pounds against Joe C?

    how about Bennie Briscoe
    Gypsy Joe Harris
    Marvin Hagler
    Sugar Ray Leonard

    Calzaghe would win every round, he might have to eat to odd, sneaky right cross but it would be an easy night (as it should be, Duran was a lightweight until his late 20s)

    These are the dumbest threads posted in quite some time. Calzaghe vs Duran or Leonard are ridiculous matchups. Try guys of a size with Joe in their primes, or leave off with this nonsense. Maybe the idea is to associate Calzaghe with these all time greats? BOTH stand higher than Calzaghe when examining their body of works.

    You are an odd individual. Why do you have a picture like that in your avatar. I mean I make fun of Jones sometimes, but wtf man? It's not funny, the dude looks dead there.

    It isn't too far fetched. The Duran that beat Barkley at 160 would be tough against anyone... It might look similar to Calzaghe/Hopkins but probably more distinctly in favor of Calzaghe.

    Ridiculous idea.

    How about Duran vs Vitaly?
