Calzaghe opposition is higher than Wilde, don't repeat what Grandpa told his grandson, Wilde was beatdown everytime he fought a life body JCC first 46 fights were poor guys and he lost early on (got wiped out) & got lots of unfair wins. People only know about the late fights, Ricardo Lopez was a real ATG, but he ducked the IBF champion for 19 title defenses fighting him when is past it, I can't rank Ricardo Lopez 46 first fights above Joe Calzaghe whole career...I although I don't think highly of the way Calzaghe fights & rank Ottke above him in the SMW, while I rank Calzaghe above Ottke in ATG
This the guys I list at strict 46-0-0-0 (YBC is Campas) Benvenuti La Rocca Holmes Zarate Pita JCC YBC Valuev Oliva Calzaghe Nielsen

I think with the British fighters, you're missing a major issue. The FW-ank factor. Ricky Hatton, Joe Calzaghe, Chris Eubank and for that matter Kell Brook were chained to fighting dubious opponents for WBO and WBU straps for far too long. Being threatened by legal action when trying to leave. Lesser lights building impressing-looking records included Kevin Mitchell, John Murray and Nathan Cleverly
:nod Keith Thurman is a solid Welterweight at his prime weightclass/age Mayweather 38 years old, GOAT @130, but small at Welterweight From now on Time is on Thurman side & he will only become a more clear favorite as Floyd ages everyday :hellohi
