    My main point is his comp isn't great.

    Did the other champs really not want to face him? I doubt this as Calderon is the biggest draw in the division. If they truly did then that isnt his fault for not facing him.

    Floyd fought the last 2 linear champs at 147 as he should - whether they were the best is up for debate. Delahoya was possibly Floyds touchest opponent at 154 with Winky leaving

    I know there are main great fighters who have owned the WBO BUT this doesnt mean owning it makes you a P4P candidate - I think Calazage only had 1 mandatory in 10 YEARS!!!!!

    So???? You just said Floyd beat the best at 135..... Castillo only had the WBC title. He never fought anyone the other champs.

    Solis won his title off of an old Will Grigsby and then should have lost his title but got a gift draw against a nobody.

    its hard to get any fights at 105, another main reason he has to move up, i dont think people are saying hes p4p because he holds a wbo belt, but because of his success and current streak... before his last two fights calderon was dominating almost every round in every single fight he defended his belt which was so impressive... I probably misunderstood you about your interpratations of the wbo... but heres a list of past wbo champs Miguel Cotto,

    exactly

    he has been trying to unify from quite some time now, but none of the other champs want a piece of him.

    also he just beat a guy who weighted 131 lbs at the fight. he was fighting a freaking jr lightweight!

    and for most of the fight he made cazares look stupid.

    OLEEE!!

    I would rate him somewhere in between 10 and 15 P4P.

    Calderon has always been top 10 P4P IMO. He just fights in a class that few respect.
