    So, after his first win in America and his biggest name opponent...

    Which victory is Calzaghe's most impressive as we look back over the "career" so far?

    Ignoring the obvious bitterness, I say Kessler

    I'd agree with that. Kessler is strong.

    I'm not bitter. I am, however, disappointed in his opposition.

    Hopkins is his best win.

    Lacy and Kessler were his best performances.

    fight would have been completely different if hopkins was in his prime, he may have came forward more, therefore actually allowing joe to box

    Did you just say Calzaghe was a much harder puncher than Hopkins in their prime?

    Who did Calzaghe ever stop?
    beat Glen Johnson, Tito and Oscar... no one else stopped those guys ever, not Roy Jones, not Taver. Bernard's prime consisted of him stopping great fighters.

    One difference between Joe and Bernard is Bernard actually has some power.

    Fck off, another thread where you write **** so discredit the current greatest British champ so you can blow Hattons trumpet in other threads.

    JC put Eubanks on his bottom and Eubanks had a granite chin. Bernie stopped blown up lightweights. The only great MW he faced in RJJ and he lost. Next great he fought (JC) he loses again.

    Simply a post about power that one, I'm not sure whether flux meant it like it sounded, but anyone who says Calzaghe has more power than Hopkins must be crazy. imo.

    Which is Hopkins best win against an elite fighter of his own size? Roy Jones? Jermain Taylor? Calzaghe?
