    Hopkins and Toney, and Calzaghe himself when Roy was shot.. There is your 3.

    I also think Prime Tarver, Prime Griffin, and LHW Glen Johnson give Calzaghe all he can handle..

    This is total bull**** too.. One of Calzaghe's biggest strengths was his stamina and work rate.. Against Roy he threw almost a thousand ****ing punches, and you are gonna say that was only 60% of what he once was? Calzaghe was at his best from Lacy to Jones.. He had less fights than Roy, fought in less weight classes, fought over 100 less rounds at the time of the fight, he was younger, and the much fresher fighter.

    How far Roy had gone is NOTHING comparable to how far Joe had slipped, if he even slipped.

    Well Roy did fight Tarver and Johnson past his best, and again, I think stylistically they give Calzaghe hell.

    Sure 50 is fair.. But when you look at Roy's style, he needed to be a lot more that 50% physically to make work what he did so great. Roy was a hit and not be hit fighter... by the time Calzaghe got him, he was a walking punch-bag.:lol:

    And look at Calzaghe's style, his was built on being tough, having great stamina and work rate, and being able to adjust in fights.. Now tell me, which part of Calzaghe's game was not on an elite level? I don't think Calzaghe was past it at all in the Roy fight. He aged very well, could still fight at a high pace, and throw 1000 punches in a fight.

    This is the exact same scenario of Pac ducking Mosley in 2009, then fighting him after he looked like ass against Floyd and Mora.

    Hopkins waited for Roy to look like ass. It was quite pathetic when he had the chance vs the prime P4P king.

    Nobody who gets knocked out by a forty year old belongs in top 10. Pac couldn't even contest Bradley like Ruslan. We're talking over 25 years not a few years. Pac's been KTFO 3 times in that time. Resume's don't mean **** if it's based on names alone. Mayweather and Pac both fought past-prime DLH, Mosley, Cotto. Pac fought past-prime Morales, Marquez, Margarito, Hatton. Heck he even padded his record against Barrera 2.

    Whitaker was shot when he lost to Tito. Who gives a **** about that loss? It was more of a cameo money making appearance than anything.

    I personally have Oscar by a point in that fight..but my personal opinion is just my own. People call this a 50:50 fight where, when talking of either of their greatness, you can call it a win from either one...as there are just as many people that have Whitaker winning the fight. Understand also, Whitaker was a little past his prime too.

    So I'm sorry but Whitaker has the best resume.

    Yeah but there's also a big fat L from the Chavez fight and Pernell won that fight. **** The Judges. You think I'm going to say the 'loss' to Chavez stands and thus this has negative implications on Whitaker's resume? **** no.

    I'm actually one of the biggest Oscar fans on this forum, but you have to give Whitaker credit for the fight.
    By your logic, just imagine a fighter getting gifted decisions that he clearly didn't deserve against 30 ATG's, does this guy have the 'greatest' resume? No.
