    Rofl, just a list of Calzaghe's opponents to Hopkins.

    You really are obsessed with Joe aint ya ?

    Well considering that Trinidad and Tarver are both FINISHED and Kessler and Lacy are both in their Prime and will do a lot more in the sport.

    1. Calzaghe
    2. Trinidad
    3. Hopkins
    4. Eubank
    5. Wright
    6. Kessler
    7. Lacy
    8. Tarver


    Look for Lacy and Kessler to move up that list in years to come.

    2 - Felix Trinidad
    5 - Chris Eubank
    6 - Antonio Tarver
    8 - Jeff Lacy
    4 - Winky Wright
    7 - Mikkel Kessler
    1 - Bernard Hopkins
    3 - Joe Calzaghe

    Something like that.

    But peak for peak pound for pound best is a much more interesting question where this bunch is concerned. Very interesting.

    How does Tarver over Kessler get justified?

    The Roy Jones trilogy.

    It's unlikely it'll be justifiable in three years time.

    Lacy has a claim to greatness for being of the recieving end of that beating by Calzaghe.

    Kind of like Foreman being famous and great for being KO'd by Ali if you follow. I guarentee Foreman wouldn't be as great had Ali retired before that fight.
