    I've been watching a bunch of his fights lately. I watched his fights with Kessler,Hopkins,Jones,Mitchell and Lacy. I was wondering if there are any other performances worth watching?

    Chris Eubank = Calzaghe's first world title fight comprehensively beat Eubank via decision in a good performance.

    Charles Brewer = Entertaining fight some good exchanges in this one Brewer came to fight.

    Mario Veit = Rare early stoppage for Calzaghe.

    Omar Sheika = Good performance from Calzaghe.

    Byron Mitchell = Entertaining short slugfest that shows Calzaghe's recuperative powers.

    The other obvious ones you've already mentioned like RJJ, Kessler, Lacy, etc.

    Hard to think of ten tbh. He just doesn't have the resume for me.

    That stretch of fights was Calzaghe's peak IMO.
