Can you be an all time great if your best win is against Jeff Lacy?

If he beat Hopkins, if Hopkins won, and what happens when you have a hard time landing cleanly on a 40 year old who could still pot shot you at will when you weren't overwhelming him with slaps? I give Calzaghe all the credit in the world for coming up so close with Hopkins(I felt Hopkins won by the knockdown) and beating guys like Kessler and Lacy so onesidedly, but he looked bad against Roy Jones, and I still say those people who gave him 11 rounds were smoking crack.

Until he got cut, Jones was giving Calzaghe all he could handle. Jones was tagging with right hands constantly. If Jones would have put it all out on the line after he hurt Calzaghe, he might have stopped him. I was sitting surrounded by Calzaghe fans and not of them would deny that a young Roy would have destroyed Calzaghe after seeing how close it was against a shot Roy Jones.

I agree with you that a young Jones beats any version of Calzaghe, but I think you were watching a different fight if you actually think Jones was ever in anyway 'In' the fight that actually happend.

Agreed. I didn't think Jones won a round after the first.

He lost 2 minutes 59 seconds of that round too

You're forgetting the count that Calzaghe took after the knockdown, so it was more like 2 minutes 53 seconds that he lost.
