    both are cut from the same cloth, thats fairly obvious.


    Avoided top fighters in their time making useless mandatories over and over and over


    THere a reason guys like Haye and now froch (gonna try at least) get respect evenwith a loss or 2 , they fight the best out there asap

    Ottke would win, by disqualification probably.

    The Filipinos and the Mexicans fight there because they can earn 10x the cash they can at home. Not so for a UK champ like Calzaghe. So the only other reason to fight there is if you get offered a mega fight or title shot that you can't get at home (Hatton-Mayweather, Calzaghe-Hopkins, Jennings, Lockett etc...) For the vast majority of Calzaghe's career there was nobody at his weight that fitted that bill. The only fighter who would have been a big enough fight to justify it was Jones and he was a 175lber.

    that my good man is total horse**** there were many fights regarless of location that would launch him, around his class of weight above and below, it just required him to travel a bit

    he beat Eubank and never capitalised

    You are talking horse****. I am talking about the United States. Where there have been no 168lbers of real note since Roy Jones. And I was talking about fights at super middleweight. Therefore, fights a bit above or below are very interesting but not really relevant to the discussion at hand.

    The same bum sprree that included the #1 contender and WBA/WBC champ, p4p #4 light heavy champ and another top 10 168 contender? Jesus, I wish most of the UK world champs would go on one.

    I give Joe credit for nard although I thought nard won like one of the judges adn the kessler win looks good, lets see hoiw kessler gets on first, kessler was another supermiddle "champ" 40 fights undfeated world title , fought very little names
