    I could honestly say that if Joe beats Hopkins and anyone of these guys I could see him P4P #1.
    Winky, Pavlik or the winner of Tarver-Woods.

    - His last opponents would be Kess, Hopkins and Winky/Pavlik/Tarver-Woods.
    - PBFs last opponents would be ODLH, Hatton, ODLH.

    But I mean just look at that line up. What are the chances of that happening for Joe?

    TO regard Calzaghe as P4P no.1 would mean you believe he beats Floyd (and every other fighter in the world) in a mythical match-up with their size and weight leveled.

    Calzaghe beating Hopkins, Pavlik and whoever else still doesn't mean he would beat Floyd should they meet in a fantasy scenario.. unless you choose to believe that of course

    Calzaghe is a great fighter no doubt about it, but i find it hard to see him passing PBF unless Floyd loses.

    For example. How is a win over a 40 odd yr old BHOP a better win for Joe C than a win for PBF over a mid 30's DLH?

    PBF's next fight at 154 will be 24 pounds above the weight he was at when he first won a title, that'd be like Joe C fighting and winning at Cruiser against a top guy (He may well be able to do that.).

    I think a win over BHOP may warrant Joe C being P4P 2 or 3, but he has to do something extraordinary to be number 1 whilst PBF is still winning.
