    Let's say Calzaghe fought in this era of SMWs, against Froch, Ward, Kessler, Bute, the Dirrells, Abraham, etc. What would his record be?

    Ward is the only one with a decent chance to beat Calzaghe.. We already saw what happened to Kessler who in his prime, was probably the second best fighter on that list.

    Ward beats him, an in form Andre Dirrell gives him trouble. He beats the rest.

    Beats Kessler,Abraham,froch he has to be carefull of Abrahams 1 punch knock out power

    Ward beats him similar to Hopkins but with more stamina a (young Hopkins )
    Dirrell beats him
    Dirrel brother is 50:50
    Other then that joe cleans out the division

    Best in order today with prime joe

    1) andre dirrell or ward
    2) joe


    Another good fight style wise is joe vs bute

    that little slush direll couldn't beat the skin off a rice pudding without having a hysterical nervous breakdown and bawling like a ***** with a sore fanny, so how he beats calzaghe in anything but faking neurological disorders is beyond me.

    The reason I think dirrell beats joe is he can fight from both stances and I think joe struggles to pin him back Dirrels lateral movement would give joe fits

    Ward would have KO'd him, he would have beaten the rest.

    He would do well fighting cabbies in Wales while claiming his paper WBO title needs to be pursued.

    calzaghe beats em all. people are underrating joe, he was really a great fighter.

    ward might have something to bother Joe but thats just far from enough.
