Calzaghe arguably lost against an far more aging Hopkins, while Mayweather decisively beat Mosley.
Oscar was far closer to his best than either Hopkins or Jones were when they faced Calzaghe.
The fact is Floyd is way better than Calzaghe, there is no comparison, he is already about 60 slots higher in the all time p4p list, and there is a reason for that.
calzaghe decidely beat a prime hopkins. if it was not for the 10th round acting job he would have stopped hopkins, as he hurt him badly in the nineth.
oscar was well past it against pbf, way more than hopkins against calzaghe,and oscar still gave pbf a very close fight. it wasn't long after that pac beat the living sh!t out of oscar...
1. Hopkins was not in his PRIME ( although far from shot ).
2. Calzaghe was as close to stopping Hopkins with his slaps , as Kid Thunder is close to getting a world title fight.
Calzaghe over hop>pbf over oscar
