Calzaghe was good but he was no...... American. Change his nationality and he's top 10 all-time.

Calzaghe's a great fighter, and I think he could have beaten the guys mentioned at the start & probably would have beaten Watson & Graham. However, he didn't fight the best till too late, and he will never be able to show how good he really was. I think if he was American & had fought the same we would criticize him even more. I don't think Jones gets into an all-time Top 20, and I would have him some way above Joe. Like it or not, America is where the money & prestige is & if Joe wanted it he should have gone there. He had no problem leaving Wales to fight in Denmark & Germany so he shouldn't have expected the likes of Jones & Hopkins to come to him earlier in his career. & like others I thought Hopkins took it.

Not as good as Jimmy Wilde because he would take on a fight even if it was all against him & the other guy was the modern equivalent of 4 whole divisions above. Also willing to come out of retirement to take on the best there was. No slighting on Joe, but Wilde probably was our best ever fighter.

Oh yeah.. Pemberton. He would have definitely handed Calzaghe's ass to him. Thomas Tate too.

They have duck of epic proportions written all over them.
