    I do have the foggiest idea, just not a top 100 set in stone. My foggy idea can be explicated by The Ring's Top 100 Fighters Of The Last 80 Years:

    I definitely wouldn't have Cal above Mike McCallum (#79), and I have Calzaghe around 15th in P4P terms since the early 90s, many of those not being in this top 80. And that doesn't even take in account fighters from over 80 years ago. I know that's not definite, but that's my foggy idea that I don't think he'd make top 100, since I haven't got my top 100 tattooed down my thigh sir.

    Better than any of them IMO, far better than the Johnson win at the time for sure. Kessler's simply a better fighter than any of them at that weight.

    Look at your 80 there, we aren't even down to 90. Tell me what the hell Harold Johnson did greater than Joe Calzaghe?

    I wasn't expecting you to detail a top 100. I was giving you a chance to give your 90-100 for comparative purposes, as I would have been impressed, but I was expecting more like a few names.

    As it happens you prefer to make blanket statements, when you claim to be a man of substance. This sort of debating tactic works with noobs, and noobs only. Anybody is going to see through it.

    Trinidad of 2001 at 160 was a better win than Kessler of 2007 at 168 IMO. Calzaghe himself said Kessler was unproven.

    I definitely think Hopkins coming off 2 defeats, jumping 2 divisions at age 40+, and dominating the LHW linear champion of the world was a better win too.

    Tarver and Kessler right now at light-heavyweight would be a 50/50. On the form of the Woods fight and in the USA, I'd fancy Tarver.

    I don't know what a noob is.

    80 + 15 + however many greater fighters from over 80 years ago = probably over 100. Probably as I haven't actually made a 100 list. I don't think many people have.

    For a schoolteacher you're not very smart, as what would be the value of giving you a 90-100 listing when I haven't done the 1-90? It would be so inaccurate it wouldn't mean anything then, would it?

    Disappear Columbo, seriously. Read the other 15 pages of this before chipping in with that pearl of wisdom.

    I'm not a schoolteacher I'm a web coder :lol::huh

    I never asked for a top 100. I asked for a 90-100, because that is where I personally think Joe fits in right now. Therefore since you made the blanket statement that he can't make the top 100, it would make sense to start with the fighters that just got in ahead. See how it works?

    Not too difficult :tired

    This doesn't make any sense. How can someone pick a 90-100 if they haven't picked 1-90?? Impossible.

    of course he was faded,i agree.all i'm saying is that he still had enough left to still be a credible and live opponent.he was certainly no shell.
