    I agree with that and I see nothing offensive about this statement. I think people are misunderstanding and think if Jermain Taylor's resume is better than he is better. Jermain Taylor's list of fighters, when he fought them, and how many times he fought them is a better group than Joe Calzaghe's list of fighters when he fought them. This is not to say that Jermain Taylor is the better fighter. Heck, I think we all can agree that Calzaghe is probably a better fighter than Taylor. But who Taylor has fought is a better select group. Actually, Taylor is a throwback fighter. He doesn't even allow himself a tune up fight here and there. Calzaghe's resume is riddled with "tunes up." Taylor's resume is better but Calzaghe is the better fighter. Just about everytime a contender beats a world champion he just showed he was better than the person with a better resume. If we really sit down and compare there are not too many fighters with a better resume than Jermain Taylor. And this is before the Super 6 tournament. So to answer the question. If Jermain Taylor won the Super 6 tournament I think he would without a doubt have a better resume than Joe Calzaghe. The two Andres wouldn't, Kessler would be arguable but only that, Froch and Abraham would probably not have a better resume.
