?? Calzaghe with his SD over Hopkins and his wide UD over Roy? Margarito with his KO's over Cintron and Cotto? not much to choose from right?
Why should Calzaghe be considered? As ugly as the win was, Bernard Hopkins is still a top fighter so that win means something, but Roy Jones? He's done nothing of note since 2003. Kermit Cintron was a title-holder and Miguel Cotto an undefeated title-holder and top 10 ranked p4p fighter. Dimitri Kirilov was a title-holder, and Cristian Mijares was a top 10 ranked p4p fighter
And? Margarito and Darchinyan have still have had a more impressive 2008 than Calzaghe. Calzaghe just has the name recognition in his favor.
Margarito. His win over cotto shocked the boxing world. Cotto was an undefeated star to be and on his way to a 10+ million dollar payday vs. DLH then potentially Floyd.
