    Hopkins no doubt. Calzaghe is great, but Hopkins is top 30 all time...

    There can no longer be any doubt.

    If Joe was beating young, prime champions in his mid-forties he'd have a case, but Hopkins takes this one.

    Isn't it obvious? Hopkins is the greater fighter than Calzaghe.

    He's also the greater fighter than Roy Jones, Jr.

    That said, both men beat him in close fights, only making both men show their elite caliber.

    Anybody saying Calzaghe has a greater legacy than Hopkins is on crack.

    On the flipside, the morons saying Calzaghe is a nobody are also on crack.

    Both men can fight. Give respect where it's due.

    Yes because beating up JLW and WW's is a noble cause, then geating dominated for 9 rounds by a shot, injured, old bloated SMW makes you better than the said fighter:patsch:nut:nut:rofl:rofl:rofl

    Calzaghe and it's not even close, his win over sugar Tocker Pudwill put him in the top 10 atg list for me a long time ago.
