Joe was never P4P number 1.
I recall him being top 5 on the list though.

joe calzaghe beat hopkins by split decision, 37 vs 42 years old, a split decision with those ages in that fight only increases hopkins legacy. A very similar version of what happened with old de la hoya vs mayweather, the same case of old lennox vs vitali. My opinion is that a respectable fight should be vs a boxer from 24 to 32 years old, besides i think that if a really ancient boxer from lets say 38 years old beats a boxer from 24 to 32 it almost ever says a lot and there should be no rematch. In the case calzaghe hopkins 37 to 42 is a huge difference, more than it it had been 32 to 37 i think. No discrimination to hopkins being an age freak but he now trains way harder

Joe Calzaghe was my P4P number 1 and is quite clearly the greatest fighter in the history of the universe. Mayweather? Ali? None of those fuckers could throw a hundred punches a round and then snort a line of coke in the corner.
Why not have a sniff after retireing it ain't gunna harm anybody!!! Tobacco is the killer not the White stuff!!
When Joe retiired he had beat all his opponent's, he had a good record 46 and 0 I am not into this p4p stuff myself.? Joe is in the history book's he DID beat Hopkins and he can say and his fan's what they like at the end of the fight what was said and the winner is Joe Calzaghe get over it old Bernardo.
funny how Marciano and Calzaghe and other Italian fighters always get the discredit.
Reckon i actually have more respect for Clinton Woods!
This thread is worse than the Donaire-Narvaez fight.
its always funny when a kid gives his opinion , but hey we all have our own idea's.
As for will it happen again , the answer is yes , if your promoter has a large roll of cotton wool , and you fight guys in their forties , or club fighters.
