could Calzaghe end up higher than RJJ in the all time p4P list

its just a thought, he says he is only gona have one more fight, but at the same time is hinting there could be more to come.... Just wondered if u thought that it is possible for him to climb above RJJ in all time P4P list??

If he were to beat RJJ, Pavlik, Dawson and Tarver would that be enough for him to climb above RJJ??

Ofcourse.

Hehehei , that is if he beat Roy Jones Jr. and i doubt on that..........:cool:

so basicly wat you are saying is that Tarver is a better boxer that Calzaghe, because he made RJJ look silly in there fights!

i don't think that beating a past his best 40 year old roy jones after 43 year old b-hop makes him better, it will take more but he's left it a bit late, of course thats if he really does retire this year, if he keeps going then who knows

OK gudnite , but that was in other Div......, Jones Jr. in 170 pnd. is too faster now , is more stronger and his power punch feels more devastating......;D

Absolutely not.

RJJ was a different class in his prime.

I second that...even though Calzaghe is a great fighter.

yes but an all time p4p list is not based on how much tallent a fighter has, it is what they have accomplished.. dont get me wrong all respect for Roy for winning the HW tittle but he had a hand picked champion who we all thought he'd beat..

wat im saying is, if Calzaghe beats RJJ, Pavlik, Dawson and Tarver has he basicly accomplished more in his career..

No.

why?

fair point my friend but calzaghes had many hand picked opponents, his record of 21 defences is really largely just a number, there's 17,18 names on there that are just names, we all knew he'd beat them.......... atleast ruiz was a name, he's fought holyfield, rahman, tua, golota, james toney, toney tucker and roy jones... ok he's lost a few. if you talk about hand picked frank warren has served up many for joe

but i respect your opinain buddy

Can anyone tell me why VD does not like Joe

No because P4P, Roy was at the top for years. Calzaghe never was. P4P draws a lot more from talent too, usually the guy at number 1 is regarded as the most talented fighter in the game. That's not the case with Calzaghe.
