    Pacquiao: Five titles in five different weight classes(I counted the Ring Magazine belt when he beat Barrera). Big wins include Erik Morales twice, Marco Antonio Barrera twice, and Juan Manuel Marquez.

    Calzaghe: Held the WBO super middleweight title for 10 years. Probably the best super middleweight ever. Bigs win include Chris Eubank, Jeff Lacy, Mikkel Kessler, and Bernard Hopkins.

    Who has the greater legacy?

    I guess, I am surprised his fans arent in here saying he has the greater legacy. I guess even they will admit Pacquiao has the far better one.

    Who do you think is p4p no.1? That will probably be the answer to this thread. Joe's stocks will go up a lot down the track anyway if he manages to retire undefeated.

    this is a no contest, Pacman is a top 100 ATG, Calzaghe will be lucky to even get into the HoF

    O please. When all is said and done history WILL NOT be kind to Joe. Any fighters ledger can be scrutinised but Joes is unique in that he has fought any prime time name of any note. He feasted on prospects old men and C and B plus fighters whilst making easy defences in he`s hometown. Thats not the ledger of an ATG.
