    Calzaghe is the best of his era.

    Lenox Lewis is classed as the greatest fighter of his era whilst beating Holyfield and Tyson when they where past their prime, shot in Tysons case.

    So i think the same should stand for Calzaghe. He has beaten every fighter he has faced, beaten two so called US legends, beaten the heir apparent to his division in Mikkel Kessler, beaten the next big thing in Lacy and has had a very dominant reign at 168.

    And seriously who gives two shits abotu what the Yanks think? I dont.

    Maybe its about time us Europeans start applauding our fighters for the true pedigree they are as opposed to always trying to please the US who lets face it are grasping at straws to have any form of decent fighter for the future.
