How can people hate on Calzaghe?

Eubank was still tough enough to give most fighters hell at that point of his career (Even Roy Jones jr at LHW) however after the Watson rematch he didnt seem to want to go in for the kill like he used to be able to and you cant really fault him for that.

Kessler was at his absolute peak when he fought Calzaghe and is probably the best win on his record, Mikkel Kessler is a very under rated fighter.

Hopkins went onto dominate Pavlik and Pascal and didnt lose til 4 years after Calzaghe

Also good wins such as :

Robin Reid - close win over former world champion
Richie Woodhall - TKO win over former world champion
Byron Mitchel - Should have been a WBO/WBA/IBF unification
Charles Brewer - WBO/IBF unification
David Starie - Another Ottke robbery victim
Jeff Lacy - WBO/IBF unifcation. Lacy was favourite in this fight
Mario Veit 2x - Holds wins over Juergen Braehmer and Charles Brewer
Omar Sheika - coming off a win over Glen Johnson
Sakio Bika - Still one of the toughest 168 fighters today

Not saying his record couldnt have been better but with Ottke too afraid to fight him and robbing everyone who did fight him blind along with Hopkins pricing himself out of a fight before they eventually met theres not much of a case you can make against Calzaghe. Jones Jr was a light heavyweight and became a heavyweight by the time Joe was ready to fight and for some reason a fight with Clinton woods fell through.

Pretty good 46-0 record

Losing twice to Jermain Taylor? Yeah he was def in his prime.
