Has Any Fighter In Recent Memory Fought As Many Quality Fighters In A Row Than JMM ?

[Fenster]

I've defended Calzaghe's record in the part, but saying he has fought better competition than JMM or Pac in his last several fights is absurd.

Barring the unjustifiable Manfredo fight, Calzaghe's last half-a-dozen are top draw.

What current other fighter between 160-175 would remain unbeaten through - Lacy, Keslser, Bika, Hopkins and Roy?

You can't just ignore the Manfredo fight though. Hopkins was a great win for Calzaghe (I feel that he lost the fight by 1 round, but I guess I must be a twit), Kessler was a great win as well (hopefully he does something in the future to justify this position), as was Lacy at the time, but Bika, Manfredo, and Jones were not great opponents IMO. Bika was a rugged 2nd tier fighter, Manfredo was Manfredo, and Jones was a shadow of what he used to be (though the way in which Calzaghe beat him was impressive).

It's a very high level of opposition, but I don't feel that it compares with that of some of the other fighters mentioned.

I said the Manfredo fight was unjustifiable.

Which current fighter between 160-175 do you think would remain unbeaten against those guys?

What does that have to do with the original question?

Manfredo has to be taken into account by virtue of the question asked, he can't simply be disregarded in terms of Calzaghe's recent opposition, because he was one of Calzaghe's recent opponents.

Oh right.. I was just asking your opinion. It's not a challenge.

I never said Calzaghe's opposition was any better or worse than anyone elses.

Some people seem to think Calzaghe's current record is laughable. Fair enough.. but I can't find a current fighter around his weight to match it

I certainly don't think his record is laughable, I just don't think it's as good as that of some other fighters. Like I said, it wasn't meant as a slight against Calzaghe.

As for the question, without really thinking about it I would say Jermaine Taylor and Chad Dawson would have the best shot of fighting those opponents and staying unbeaten (Taylor's already beat Hopkins x2 and Lacy).

Ha! Yes Taylor is nearly there. His win over Hopkins looks a bit flukey in light of his current form. In fact i'd back Hopkins to beat him should they meet again. I think Kessler would beat him all day long too.

Dawson probably has the most potential. But the opposition would still be a jump in class for him too.
