    Mainly for the people who see PBF dismantling Hatton and a foregone conclusion:

    Leonard v Duran I
    Tyson v Douglas
    Jones v Tarver
    Lewis v McCall
    Benn v McLellan
    Hamed v Barrera (we all know Barrera was the better boxer but at the time Hamed was looking untouchable)

    All were deemed close to invincible at the time and lost to a supposedly inferior opponent.

    Just remember if boxing history teaches us anything it's that NOBODY is unbeatable :good

    Yes everyone can, but that doesn't mean that undefeated person is going to lose.

    Joe Calzaghe is absolutley and positvley unbeatable. He has no flaws whatsoever. Calzaghe can not only mercilessly beat every fighter in boxing, but beat boxing itself. JC must be a demigod or something, he is that good. No but really your'e right, nobody is unbeatable.

    The closest boxer I have ever seen to being unbeatable was a prime Roy Jones he was a boxing God in his prime. Power in both hands blinding handspeed and cat like reflexes to avoid punches. The man was ****ing sick and i doubt we'll see another.

    While Calzaghe is great a prime Roy Jones would have beaten him by wide UD.

    you are either blind or dumb or both. Kessler did land alot, Calzaghe just has a titanium chin. The only fight where I can see when he looked unhittable was against Lacy even then lacy was able to get 1 or 2 shots on Joe, thats when Calzaghe announced to his corner he cant punched ****.
