How does Joe deserve to leap Pacquiao as #2 P4P?

    Even though that Calzaghe has won a LHW world title to go along with his SMW title, he still in my eyes has not done enough to grant the #2 spot over Pacquiao ... who gained his 2nd linear title and 3rd world title in as many weight classes.

    Hands down Pacquiao has the better grade of competition and has fought at a high level for years. He beat JMM who was top 5 p4p and an elite titlist in the superfeather division.

    Although Calzaghe has done well ... I can't seem him leaping Pacquiao after two marquee fights.


    What do you guys think?

    I like Joe a lot but #3 makes more sense. I really don't feel that Pac beat JMM but if JMM had been given the nod then he would be #2 and Joe would still be #3.

    This wasn't neccessary ... everyone knows that PBF is #1 and has been for years ... he hasn't lost a fight and should be granted this status until he loses or has a long period of inactivy.

    All fighters on that list have done things significant but when it comes down to it, over the years ... no resume has been more stellar than PBF's. :hi:

    fitzgerald honeslty. You made a load of anti-calzaghe threads in the weeks leading up to the Hopkins fight.

    And now after he wins, you start things up with yet ANOTHER anti-calzaghe thread.

    Just make a post about how you dont like Joe Calzaghe and LEAVE IT AT THAT.

    Everyone knows what you think, and more to the point, nobody cares.

    He doesn't.

    Just another delusion being hocked by the Calzaghe contingent.
