    In wake of his recent victory over Mikkel Kessler, I don't think there's been a day with out the name Calzaghe being discussed in a thread. Now, my question is, are people still underrating him and not appreciating his skills, or are people now starting to overrate him based on his undefeated status and unification of the titles? Or is he just fine where he's at now?

    He's right where he should be because some seriously underrate him, some seriously overrate him, but most believe he's a top 3 P4P fighter and the best super middleweight ever (accomplishment wise).

    And Lacy was overrated too ?

    And Eubank?

    Yes he's a tad overrated here and there, but he's more often UNDERRATED.

    Calzaghe is extremely underrated and has been the best kept secret in boxing for years due to the extremely provincial attitude of US.

    True.

    But how would he have done against Nanfredo if he'd never fought Calzaghe?
