    Calzaghe was a bigger fighter than McCallum or his opposition, those aren't fair comparisons, get a clue. And Roy would've beaten Joe prime for prime to answer your question.

    McCallum fought the majority of his career at 154. Calzaghe fought the majority of his career at 168. How is your argument even applicable here??

    Rico Spadafora would have a field day with Graham if he was around today.

    yeah he also beat macallum roy jones is the only guy that gets anywhere enar calzaghe.
    I am also talking in terms of p4p i don't rate alot of the guys on macullums resume in terms of beating calzaghe.

    Maybe not in terms of beating Calzaghe, but certainly as better than Calzaghe's opposition.

    Spinks was also more of a natural LHW. RJJ is more of a natural middle whos moved up. I think Holmes is obviously a better win than Ruiz but I think it was more of a feat for RJJ to move to HW and win than Spinks.

    Anyways I agree with TheGreat in that RJJ has a better resume than ODLH and SSM as well as some others that have been mentioned. Dunno if I'd put RJJ over Spinks though.

    Maybe. But it is very close.

    How does seeing it live mean any more than seeing it on dvd??

    You're wrong. Collins, Graham and Watson were all clearly better boxers than Reid and Woodhall.

    Not really. A clear victory. I'm not saying Roy's resume is great, but I am saying that Mosley's is weak.

    i think it is hard to judge such things as calzaghe has never lost and macullum lost to some great guys but he lost that has to impact the level of his resume.
    I don't think anyone around the 160-175 mark is beating calzaghe from the last 10-15 years apart from roy jones in his prime and that would be a closer fight than many people think ud for jones is my pick.
