Is Calzaghe the greatest British boxer of all time?

1. Wilde
2. Fitzsimmons
3. Lewis
4. Calzaghe

 

ted lewis being overlooked is nothing new.

same with randy turpin, that one win over SRR possibly eclipses joe's entire career.

 

benny Lynch

 

hell no

 

Despite Lennox getting his **** pushed in twice and even though I hate him, He has to be #1 (if you'd call him a Brit anyway). He's got way more solid opposition. And wasn't afraid to fight in only his hometown.

 

you can't argue with Lewis, Calzaghe and Benn from the modern era. And whilst he was a flawed (and often floored) fighter, Hamed had 18 world title fights over the years, only losing 1.

 

I rank Lennox Lewis, Bob Fitzsimmons, and Jimmy Wilde over Calzaghe.

 

Yes. Without question. He has nothing left to prove. One of the greatest, regardless of nationality.

 

Joe Calzaghe and Ricky Hatton along with Randy Turpin, Nigel Benn, John Conteh, Freddie Mills, Lloyd Honeyghan, Howard Winstone, Naseem Hamed, Barry McGuigan, Ken Buchanan and Lennox Lewis. I like most of all Alan Minter, Sir Henry Cooper and Carl Thompson, don't know why...

 

In the case of Carl "The Cat" Thompson, it's probably because every second he was in a fight was an edge-of-the-seat moment.

 

Theres a simple answer to this question and the answers NO. His defintly one of the best as his won the IBF WBO WBA and WBC aswell as the ring belt and is recognised world over as the best at 168.But the facts remain the only names on his ledger are Kessler an old Eubank and a very Green Lacy.Nice resume but not the stuff legends are made of.
