    It will be a good win and he will take out the best slapper of all time.

    And you would be comfortable putting RJJ above the likes of Duran and Greb if he beats Calzaghe? For me it would be a case of Calzaghe being exposed more, although I would give RJJ alot of credit still.

    Interesting you have him at #9 already.

    My top 10 is:

    1 Sam Langford
    2 Harry Greb
    3 Sugar Ray Robinson
    4 Henry Armstrong
    5 Roberto Duran
    6 Ezzard Charles
    7 Benny Leonard
    8 Muhammad Ali
    9 Mickey Walker
    10 Bob Fitzsimmons

    Something like that, might of messed the order up of the last 4 slightly. I wouldn't feel comfortable moving Jones ahead of any of those based primarily on a win over Calzaghe.

    Pavlik moves back down to 160 to face AA after this fight, possibly his last at 160. I'm not sure he goes up to LHW again for a while. There are fights for him at SMW.
