    What about Joe Galzaghe v Mike McCallum, prime for prime?

    Old Mike still has some serious beef that he never made any massive money fighting the fab 4.

    Also, does he look really stoned or is that just me. He is Jamaican mon...

    That'd be Light Mid vs. Super Middle wouldn't it?

    In that case McCallum.

    He had big power and skills.

    Not really sure when Joe's prime was?

    If you could somehow make a boxing league and have Benn, Eubank, Watson, Collins, Calzaghe and McCallum in their primes against each other at a fair catch weight I think that Mike would be the only one to beat every other fighter. I think one of the others at least would beat Calzaghe in their primes, probably Collins and Eubank and maybe even Watson too although I do think he'd easily beat Benn but McCallum would beat all 5 of the others IMO.

    I think you're right.

    McCallum destroyed Jackson who hit harder than Nigel although perhaps wasn't intense.
    Collins wasn't a very good fighter, decent at best.
    Eubank was tricky, but Mike had a great fast jab.
    Watson....well you know.

    Calzaghe.....there are question marks.
    Pound for pound I think Mike betters him, but with Joe being bigger.........
