Better Resume: Calzaghe Or Jermain Taylor?

Unfortunately for Taylor, even if we consider his "wins" over Hopkins as legit you can't erase this shitty performances against Pavlik.

They hover over him like a dark cloud. It's not as if he lost to a great fighter there, he got his ass kicked by a very ordinary guy.

 

Calzaghe

 

Erm, i never said he did. I said he could have easily lost to Wright, though you are correct in pointing out that the B-Hop decisions were also questionable.

 

All of them were world champions at the weight Calzaghe beat them at. How many of Taylor's opponents can you say that about? Spinks got sparked by Judah at 147 ffs.

 

Calzaghe by a bit, I thought Winky was robbed against Taylor.

 

Taylor lost to Hopkins at least once,lost to Winky,got beat by Pavlik twice,looked dreadfull with Spinks.His resume ain't even close to Calzaghe's

 

Are you trying to say that only wins count on a resume?

 

Hiding but now he's been spotted. :thumbsup

 

Kessler was a beltholder, infact he had 2. Another idiot. :rasta

 

And Bunema, Marquez and Joppy do? How many quality middleweights have Ouma and Spinks beaten? ROFLcopter at you, sir!

 

Well so was Bernard,The Ring title was linear.

 

I don't know what your definition of "known fighters" is but theres plenty on those 3 records that I recognize as being pretty decent fighters. Either way all three were title holders at 168 and to omit them for Manfredo and Bika leaves you open to critisism of "cooking the books".
