    Id rate JC's win over past prime Eubank better than a shot RJJ or a solid Kessler.

    Well Since you wanna put guys like Bika and Ashira and Veit on Calzaghe's resume I'll list them as such.

    Calzaghe:

    Eubank
    Reid
    Woodhall
    Sheika
    Veit (twice)
    Brewer Mitchell
    Ashira
    Lacy
    Bika
    Manfredo
    Kessler
    Hopkins

    Jones:

    Vaca
    Castro
    Wolfe
    Hopkins
    Malinga
    Tate
    Toney
    Pazienza
    Thornton
    Lucas
    Brannon
    McCallum
    Griffin
    Hill
    Del Valle
    Grant
    Johnson
    Hall
    Harding
    Gonzalez
    Kelly
    Woods
    Ruiz
    Tarver
    Handshaw
    Trinidad

    Even if Calzaqghe beats Joe, Jones' resume pwned Calzaghe's.

    Stinky Gloves has always been a Jones hater and worthless poster. He's not worth this many responses.

    haha alot of Americans are breaking out in a cold sweat with the thought of Calzaghe being higher regarded in terms of his legacy than Jones.People forget you have to include Jones loses aswel.In terms of Career Calzaghes is very very close to Jones,in terms of who is the best fighter at their peak,probably Jones but not as much in it as most poeple here think.

    I really don't think it's close when talking about who was better at their peaks. Clearly it is Jones.

    I agree, and Toney did not look his best in that fight...RJJs' resume aint any more to bragg on than Joes',,,,,but that does not take away the fact that they are both tops...in both their days as well

    I dunno...being a fan of both. I'd bet Joe at anytime at 168..but 175---Roy could win

    He's been good, but so have others...when I heard the commentators say Joe was best at 168...I can well believe them over a bunch of hating biased yahoos on here...and I do

    If your judging in only 1 rd I would agree...tho over 12 or even 15 I think the gap narrows dramatically as Calzaghes chin and Stamina come into play.

    You haters woukdn't give Joe an ounce of credit no matter what he does, so what's he point??
    Joe whomped Lacy better at 168 than ANYONE could have done ( Except RJJ Maybe )'''and Lacy was a nut-fking God on here, and Joe whooped him all 12,,,and STILL no credit given, instead the phony haters overhyped excuse...phooey on you all
