I think Calzaghe's a ****, but he was an entertaining fighter. He could have done a lot more, but as is he's still the best 168 pounder of all time. I thought he lost to Hopkins, though.
I think cotto does. Infact he really showed it in the 2nd half of the Clottey fight when his eye was cut in he was in deep waters.
He didnt do it too well against Margarito, loaded gloves or no Loaded gloves, he was very one dimensional in that fight. Calzaghe was just an out and out warrior, one of the most hair raising, goosebump inducing moments i rememebr is his fight against Byron Mitchell, Knocked down, he decided to trade with the bigger punching Byron, and beat the crap out of him!
Calzaghe's a great fighter and deserves all the props in the world for being one-especially due to his victory over a very good Kessler.But please stop giving him credit for beating a seriously shot Jones that couldn't even ko even more seriously shot former welterweight Tito Trinidad in the fight before the Calzaghe fight.
He's an ATG IMO. Could have made more big fights happen when in his prime, but you could say the same of almost anyone
