    Calzaghe has more shots in his arsenal, has been proven to be adapatable, has superior technical ability, and has had a more consistant career than Pacman.

    no, you fail

    Pacman is much much better offensively than Calzaghe, and Calzaghe's career accomplishments is no where near that of Pacman's.

    You think Pac has more in his arsenal; as in a better variety of punches like Calzaghe?

    Pac has beaten better opposition, more often, and has proven his ability time and time again against the best. He has also fought over a span of 7 weightclasses, soon 8. His main weapons are much more potent then Calzaghe's and he had superior speed and power.
