    Might not be a popular view but I'd pick Calzaghe to beat him handily.

    Damn, Flea.

    Why do you always have to be so controversial?:-(

    Flea, I can't get over your view on who's the better of the Galaxy brothers.

    You're a god with the lower weight guys, but this is something I just cannot get my head around!

    Just watch 'em.

    Dominating Moon and Vasquez is more impressive than anything on Khaosai's record (if it'd been Contreras at bantam we'd be talking) and Khaokor was the more skilled fighter.

    Simple as that, as I've said before for depth it's Khaosai but was he ever the no.1 in his division? His belt means nothing. His defences mean little in terms of 'achievement'. Take that out and what have you got?

    A very hard puncher and a beast at the weight, but Khaokor was better, no doubt in my mind.

    Do you think Khaokor was ever number 1?

    ahhh I get ya now.

    Neither were number 1 so throw achievements out of the window and all we're left is who's the better fighter with the better victories and you see that as being Khaokor?

    Yeah! But Khaosai has a greater quantity of decent victories and longevity going for him.

    I agree with the principle actually (people getting overrated based on paper titles/defences).

    Like you say I should probably just watch them both :lol:
