    Dude, Hearns back then was clearly not the same fighter at 168/175 then he was at ww. <<If anybody follow Hearns career should easily see that. At 168 pounds, a prime Calzaghe would outbox a way past his prime Hearns.

    People just cant accept that Calzaghe never got beat and have trouble living with it.
    People forget that Calzaghe has never been close to being KOd in his career.
    Calzaghe would KO Hearn at SMW

    Calzaghe was very close to getting stopped by Mitchell who wasnt a known puncher.

    To put it in simple terms , Calzaghe was a clear champion in a poor league. He then beat two fighters who are pretty limited and two 40 somethings who he wouldnt have lived with 5 years previous.

    He always said 'I can only beat the men in front of me' and fought Tocker Pudwill when he was 30.

    Extremely overated and only beat Jones and Hopkins on fitness.

    calzaghe pops that MOFO out in dominating fashion in 4 - 5 rounds!

    anyone that says hearns would win ain't worth listening to.take off those rose tinted glasses.. calzaghe also beats duran, leonard and haglar.

    calzaghe is the best all round fighter of the past 20 years.

    Yea beating smaller fighters that don't belong at super middleweight and is not consider one of the best at smw. Resumes wise of career, Calzaghe is not even close to Leonard, Duran, Hagler level.
