Of course by the same token, cotto knocking off judah, margarito (from what i expect), and then hatton if the fight happened, would have a very strong case.

i think is Jc came over to fight the winner of hopkins/wright he be pound for pound no 1 and would solidify all the praise he's been getting without ever doing anything to earn it...although i think to still be undefeated is great because to be undefeated in a professional sport is remarkable regardless of who you're fighting
Calzaghe would have to beat kessler and the winner of wright/hopkins to even be in the conversation.
if hatton is in the conversation then certainly Jc should be in it..because before last night hatton only had wins over Kt and collazo..calzaghe the same with wins over eubank and lacy are pretty much the same thing...
we're talking the #1 spot not just the top three. Beating kessler probably boosts calzaghe in the top three but i dont think it will be a strong enough case for #1.
