    Clearly Joe's is better.

    However, I've never felt its fair to compare HW resume's to other weights.

    I say let Klitschko beat current Lewis and current Foreman and it will be even.

    Calzaghe's record is absolutely amazing. Chris Eubank, Robin Reid, Jeff Lacy, Mikkel Kessler, Bernard Hopkins, and Roy Jones Jr!

    Bernard and Jones Jr were past their prime but still. And personally with the way Bernard boxes and conditions himself I dont think hes even that decreased in quality since his prime. AND people forget that Calzaghe thought all these people from Jeff Lacy onwards past HIS prime also. Calzaghe has one of the best resumes out there. I mean he doesnt jus beat Klitschkos, but he absolutely pisses on it:)

    Did you really just point out that Sakio Bika has the IBO title?

    That's pretty funny.

    Joe's is better as of right now.

    It would be difficult for Wlad to beat Joe's accomplishments

    Wlad would have to do a whole lot to be better including:

    1) Make more title defences
    2) Become Undisputed Champion by holding ALL major belts at the same time (WBA, WBC, IBF, WBO, and Ring)
    3) Can't lose any more fights
    4) Has to beat all the top contenders for around another 5 years (3 fights a year)

    Incorrect, Wlad has lost by ko's and calzaghe has been knocked down and still kicked the opponents ass.
    Nobody can surpass calzaghes career, 1 of the best records ever, A few ATG on his record and has beat everyone in the smw division and has become undisputed champion,
    Nah, Nobody will surpass joe.:D

    I think they are about equal.

    Joe took nine years from winning the Warren title to start unifying. Wlad looked to get his ass in gear much quicker, and deserves credit for that.

    Only............

    Mayweather, DLH, Hopkins, Jones, Pacquiao, JMM, MAB, EM, Rafa M, Izzy V, SSM.... and those are just the current/recently retired ones.

    Imagine......
