    Even if you favour one guy over the other, you have to rank these two pretty closely pound-for-pound IMO. I have trouble deciding between the two. I think Calzaghe is possibly the more skilled fighter, but Tito has a stronger resume. I'm interested in how the poll will go on this one...

    ...Please Be Adults And Vote For Who You Genuinely Think Was The Greater Fighter, Not Just Biased Hometown Allegiances.

    Thoughts/opinions? :bbb

    Tito.

    Better resume and he continually stepped up and fought the best every division had to offer.

    Just like you said in another post, the Greats fight other Greats.

    Poll open. I expect this to be a close one. I voted Tito, but I'm not 100% on that.

    I'm shocked you chose Tito. hahahah

    How about this, for you PACFAN as well: Tito vs Calzaghe in a head ot head matchup?

    I say Calzaghe wins.

    Obviously. Tito never quite made it at 160lbs, and Calzaghe was strong at 168lbs. Calzaghe late stoppage.

    i'm not hating on Joe i like him and i'm not being biased either but i don't think its close tito always fought the best that was out there. look at the fight with Roy he was out of boxing for 3 years and jumped 2 weight classes to fight roy who he had no business being in the ring with at that time.. an ATG and a true warrior. boxing NEEDS more fighters like Tito

    I had already given my answer on the pound-for-pound question, that's what this thread is.

    Ok, but just because I think Tito is better pound for pound in terms of rankings, doesn't automatically mean I have him winning a pfp head to head fight.

    Tito is better in terms of rankings pfp but Joe wins the pfp head to head fight IMO.
