    This is tough, and there are 3 STRONG candidates:

    Manny Pacquaio
    Vlad Klitscho
    Joe Calzaghe

    While Manny and Vlad's fans are terribly delusional regarding their "godly status" in the sport, even from an all time standpoint:roll: , the clear winner in this category is JOE CALZAGHE. Manny and Vlad have lost and been beaten up in the process so we know we're dealing with clowns, but Calzaghe still has that "0" and that makes his fans EXTREMELY questionable in light of the fact that he's had too many excuses for not putting his "legacy" on the line, brittle hands anyone...He's a great fighter though.

    You are an abomination to real boxing fans. Go get baptized by holy mayweather water so you can be rigtheous and wash away the sins of worshipping false gods.

    Joy Boy is a disgrace to boxing and is currently declining, he stopped being a supernatural the minute he left 130 pounds and his recent behaviour is of the demonic type for boxing fans. Rip em off and don't fight the best!:lol:

    God Mijares is set to clean his division something nasty, Mayweather's wasting the entire year in a rematch vs. DLH, give us yet another boring pot shotting match up after that horrible fight with Hatton that everyone forgot about due to it ending in a KO.

    Joy Boy isn't even worth talking about in the face of a God, now you better go pray to St. Joseph of Wales and then ask God Mijares for forgiveness or you are out of the game, player.:lol: :lol: :lol: :good

    I agree. Plenty of his fans believe the man is capable of achieving his pipe dream of cleaning out the HW division.

    He's a good CW though and one of the best punchers about, I like him. I doubt he does anything at HW, save for beating some of the B level operators there by impressive KO's.

    There's a big reason there haven't been many successful HW's who were just campaigning at CW. Even today's bads HW division won't stop that trend.

    I hope Haye stays at CW a while longer, but the chances of big $$ are a mother****er to ignore.

    Ok so im going to own up here: I voted for Diaz, which is probably a pretty bad vote compared to some of the other guys on the list. But as of lately everyone around here thinks Diaz is untouchable....and my point is that he has flaws and isn't perfect. There are a couple guys I favor over him is all im saying. His hype right now reminds me of the Paul Williams hype from not too long ago. Berto is another guy that could be on that list imo, he has obvious flaws and a good group of people on here that think he is (or is going to be) untouchable

    I agree with you on the Juan Diaz pick, I don't think he's anywhere near as good as people on this board make him out to be. However, no one tops David Haye right now. The guy has a leaky defense, and his chin gets checked way too often. The hype with this guy is reaching Klitschko proportions. The difference is that Wlad is a much better fighter.

    Let's be real here. The man's only good win was against past it Mormeck. I'm not saying Haye is a bad fighter, far from it, he's just getting way too much hype considering his talent level and accomplishments.

    Seems like Amsterdam and his flock are not as holy as one would expect. With Joey Calslappy leading the brigade. Mijares, who got chin checked by a guy that threw the same combination over and over and over for 12 rounds. Then he couldnt even put the guy away, even when trying his darndest.....LOSERRRRRRRR...

    :good Exactly. They don't understand the meaning of "limitations." I have no problem with anybody saying he'd KO Marquez, Guzman, Diaz, Mayweather, Cotto, Mosley, or De La Hoya, but once you start getting into Pavlik and Taylor...:patsch
