    I will not since Froch is still below Casamayor and Castillo.

    You see, the only which I cannot equal in their resumes is Castillo.
    Everything else may be seen at different levels and its really easy
    find big holes in Floyd resume if you look closely.

    Again I'm not saying that Calaghe has better resume than FLoyd
    but that they are very comparable.

    Pacquiao was at the time the P4P number one fighter in boxing. Did you consider Thompson as being P4P, number 1 in the world or did you conveniently forget that Pac was ranked that high . not to mention thompson was koed right after the second eubank fight. comparing losses to pacquiao and to thopmson dosent help your argument much.

    in you're opinion they're comparable. yeah you can find holes in mayweather's resume but if mayweather has big holes in his resume, then calzaghe has craters in his. if mayweather had calzaghe's resume, he would get more criticism then he does now.

    Still PAC being #1p4p doesn't change fact he is smaller guy while
    Thompson not being on p4p list was fighting 25lb above Calzaghe.
    Both argument are relative and work in different ways
    and they are important depending how you stress the point.

    You know, if Joe was US fighter and all of his opponents had
    US passports (leaving all their resumes intact) then even
    Puldwill could be used as an example of a great achievement.

    The way it is, the guys as Kessler, Froch, Beyer and other Euro
    fighters which are at Calzaghe's resume will always be less
    significant than the guys as Hernadez, Chavez, Augustus.

    As the example Joe beat Jones and Hopkins 3 years ago,
    but they will still be fighting this year at HBO PP4 event
    this year .... if you go with this argument then you may say
    that every CRAPY fight in US may be sold out as being fight
    of the century and count at the resume.

    what the hell does wieght have to do with it? you're trying to run from the fact that eubank past it and was done after losing two fight with thompson while hatton, having already regained the top spot at 140, was koed brutally by pac, a boxer who is regarded as the best in the world and a hof fighter.

    now you're just making excuses. now ifs, ands and buts. what being discussed here is who has the better resume. and you still havent provided sensible argument to support your claim.

    Off course, I have, people claim that Chavez, Hernandez or Augstus
    were great Floyd's wins but the Euro guys on Calzaghe's resume as
    Woodhall, Brewer, or Mitchell are not significant at all ... just because
    they didn't fought at HBO/SHOWTIME ppv events .... this seems to
    be plain hypocrisy.

    Corrales is not 1-2 with Casamayor. He was dominated and put on his ass by Casamayor. It was a robbery and the most dominant performance by Casamayor in their trilogy.
    His win over Castillo was tainted by the spitting of the mouthpiece.

    :-( you dont get it do you? pacquiao, regardless of what wieght he came up from, already proved he was a devastating at at higher wieghtclasses. so hatton, despite being considered the best man at 140 after being lazcano and malignaggi, got steamrolled because pac is that damn good. you even compaing thompson and pacquiao shows how desperate you are.
