    But he can choose to face absolutely any LH in the world he likes right now.

    Cmon Its not like Calzaghe has been fighting several weight division's below anyway.

    If Spinks was fighting today at LH, him and Calzaghe would be a perfectly viable fight.

    No point in even making the thread...

    Who wins - Michael Moorer or Bernard Hopkins, same difference.

    true but don't you see the reason for this thread it's to goat CAlzaghe fans into being ridiculed if they pick there favorite fighter becuse franly AT 175 spinks hold almost la the advantages over him Spinks was Undfeated at that weight and had the Jinx on his side:hey

    some people hate to swallow that bitter pill of defeat . i myself am a fan of B-hop and although i am a bigger fan OF Calzaghe i still hated to see him lose but i still rejoiced when JOE won

    Calzaghe gets stopped against Spinks, there is no way he can win. In fairness, as does RJJ, likely Hopkins and Toney would lose very wide.

    You've got as the best H2H LHW's -

    Spinks, Foster, Moorer, Charles & Patterson in no particular order. These guys OWN the ****ing division H2H.

    What weight is Joe Calzaghe Boxing at now, what weight did Michael Spinks spend a large large part of his career boxing at?

    What weight is Joes next fight likely to be at?

    LH

    If you think Spinks is the superior boxer at LH then so be it, that was the question.

    Yeah - For about 3 rounds til the Jinx landed and Calzaghe picks up his jaw from the 10th row on his way back to Wales.

    Yeah, valid comparison. Two guys (Hopkins and Calzaghe) fighting above their best weights against two H2H greats at their best weights (Spinks and Moorer).

    You don't even need to state that he's the superior fighter, it's universally recognised. Trying to even get people to compare(namely Joe's fanbase) is an indirect call against Calzaghe.

    My point was that make Hopkins vs. Moorer at LHW, there is no way Hopkins beats Moorer, in fact, he gets KTFO against Moorer, anybody who picks otherwise is a ridiculous Hopkins fan and I'd only make the thread if I was trying to goad them.
