    I can't actually. Toney and Hopkins aren't classy enough.

    Yes, easily.
    If Ali, Frazier, Norton, Foreman, can do it. Those little guys can too. :yep
    but if you throw Calzaghe in the mix, there's gonna be a lot of sad UK fans when truth is revealed.

    Big Q mark over Calzaghe - certainly never fought competitive fights with guys like Reggie Johnson and Chris Eubank at their best, and McCallum and Kalambay in difficult circumstances (16-fight kid against peak Mike, in Italy against Italian Sumbu), or faced as dangerous a puncher as Nigel Benn... (forget 40-45 yr olds and resume-less belt holders, or worn former champs)...

    Collins went out there and did what he could, and wanted to fight everyone and anyone from start to finish in his career.

    Calzaghe didn't.

    Chris Pyatt I'd rate above Reid, Woodhall and Starie, too. And Watts and Seiller better than probably 15-18 of Calzaghe title challengers. Tony Thornton a league above Brewer, Mitchell (see Sosa, Toney fights).
