    Calzaghe. All day, every day. Joe would have outworked him. Chad doesn't throw enough to deal with that kind of volume.

    And Hopkins did? Whoever you thought won that fight, it was razor thin and the old man was certainly effective without throwing much at all. Then watch Hopkins-Dawson for comparison, I just dunno here. It can't be omitted that CAlzaghe couldn't hurt anyone by this point at 175.

    Back then I would have said Dawson without much a doubt. In hindsight in not sure if my opinion has changed. Calzaghe was past his best or off his weight class and Dawson really was at his best back then.

    Dawson wasn't hurting anyone at 175 either. Hopkins is a very good spoiler and has a way of dealing with different styles. Of the 3 judges in the Hopkins-Calzaghe fight, the best Hopkins did on the scorecards was 6-6 in rounds. I am so sure Calzaghe would have dealt with him no problem.

    No body would have wanted to see it in comparison to seeing Joe fight 2 legends in Jones and Hopkins.
    Do not let success go to your head and do not let failure get to your heart.

    I all ways laugh about Hopv Calz, Joe won the old man was spent, he was cheating the Hop was looking for a way rolling round like he been shot, he needed a rest the pace was
    to hot, Joe would have beat Chad.

    Calzaghe UD. He would've been too busy for Dawson.
