    In this order.

    Kessler - Undefeated and still competing at high level. Good clear win.
    BHop - Hard earned win against an ATG
    Lacy - Schooling of a hypejob
    Eubank - Eubank was old but Calzaghe was still green when he ran into that vet.
    ------------------------------------

    Hopkins was the best fighter he faced but because it was a SD, you cant rate that above UD12 Kessler.

    I picked Kessler for the list, his best win was against Byron Mitchell though, Mitchell
    really came to get him and nearly did, Calzaghe rumbled back though real
    respectable.

    His only clear great win was against a Prime Kessler, then beating almost retired, weight drained and shop-worn Eubanks, I thought Bho won their fight so thats not even in the mix, Lacy only because he was in his prime (even though he was the biggest hype job ever), Finally shot to ****ing **** RJJ. I am sure people who really care could tell what they think where better wins but from that list that is the was i see it.

    Kessler is his best win imo.
    The Hopkins win has lost a lost of its shine with Hopkins recent performances

    I can agree with this except the part about the bhop win. A terrible fight but I think the right guy got the win

    Kessler as I count the Hopkins fight as a loss but he performed much better against Kessler anyways. Bika win is underrated as is the Reid one and Calzaghe is still the greatest SMW.

    Off to spend some v-cash on Bute!!!!!:thumbsup

    As I remember it was close but clear for Bhop . . . but I would never ever watch that shite again so you could be right. Not a fan of either guy so I look at it as a shite stain on the sport and both guys careers

    Not really sure why everytime there is a big SMW fight there is a deluge of Calzaghe threads. I've been critical over the years, but I don't see the reason for beating a dead horse. I know the guy is a polarizing boxer, but those looking to tear him down just brin him more attention,while those lookin to prop him up only open him up for more criticims. For better or for worse, history will sort the guy out.

    Don't give that Kessler ****! He was in deep trouble against Hopkins having hit the deck in the 1st and behind on scorecards by midstage, even his father was telling him so. He also was in trouble against Mitchell but he just did the impossible, put more than 30 punches together till Byron gave up or the ref came in, nobody would be able to do that, not even on cocain.
