    Is it ****.. in fact both of their common opponents say Calzaghe was better.. difference is he beat them in his mid 30s whereas Ward was prime & pumped full of steroids yet still had to grope and elbow and head butt them to death too LOL..

    You wanted to keep the title shorter so used the complete wrong weight class? Ok.

    Well, since he's the greatest man ever, and sportsmen and middleweights are both subsets of men, that goes without saying.

    And rightly so. Joe was a super middleweight.

    Usyk should be #1 at CW

    They need to fix that up ASAP
