Calzaghe - The Greatest Light Heavy Ever?

Can't say with only 2 fights, but the Joe that fought Jones has a chance at anything, but the joe vs Hopkins was not nearly as talented ( based on 2 fights only )

 

Dear lord not again.atsch

Last time, it was the greatest fighter of the 25 years.

Now, after beating a ****in' SHOT RJJ, he is being considered as the greatest LH?

 

co-sign

Top 10 P-4-P all-time I would say (around about 7 or 8 on my current list).

 

i pray you're being sarcastic

 

To the OP: I admire your enthusiasm for Calzaghe and i'm a fan of his myself but c'mon, this is indeed a true nuthuggers thread!

no

 

this is getting ****ing stupid now...this has to be a joke. Two fights against two veterens one of whom was COMPLETELY shot. Roy Jones was knocked out - spark out - by Glen Johnston , years ago. He was shot then and he's even further gone now. Bernard Hopkins is a good win, he is still a very able world class fighter , but he's still past his prime by a distance and the Calzaghe win against him was a razor thin decision that was arguably the wrong one. And he was dropped in both of these fights. A case can be made for Calzaghe being the best SMW ever can be made, but even contemplating him as one of the best light heavies ever is ****ing moronic.

 

I don't think he is anywhere yet on the light heavy scene. He has fought 2 past their best fighters & has not won a world title at light heavy.

 

No because he has had only two fights at that weight.

 

Absolutely nowhere near and i'm a huge Calzaghe fan

It just wouldn't be fair to so many other great fighters who have graced LHW, to say he's only fought there two times.

Best SMW of all-time and an ATG though

 

He hasn't got time left in his career to be a great lightheavy weight. He should hve moved up years ago.

 

Yes he is, it's hard to say other wise. After beating a 43 year old career middle wight, and a totally shot 40 year old at the weight he simply has to be up there with the best at LH.

 

**** off is he.
