    Joe Calzaghe was in his late 30s and 38 or so fights when he retired.


    Andre Ward at the age of 27 in under 25 fights is on his way to building a better resume than Joe Calzaghe at super middleweight.

    In 7 years Andre Ward has accomplished nearly as much if not more at Super Middleweight than Joe Calzaghe accomplished in 15 years at Super Middleweight and dismantled Mikkell Kessler who was the most skilled fighter at 168 even easier than Calzaghe did in his 21st fight.

    Say what you will about how good Hopkins winning makes Calzaghe look. But the fact of the matter is Andre Ward is on the verge of putting himself ahead of Calzaghe in terms of history and resume before his 30th Birthday, or even before his 30th fight.

    So say what you will about Calzaghe now, but there's someone in his division already close to eclipsing his accomplishments and biggest 'wins'.

    The same cannot, and will not ever, be said of Hopkins. Especially not less than 2 years after he retires

    And if Ward beats Froch.. then there is no question really who has the better Super Middleweight resume.

    Actually to be honest, lets say Ward beats Froch(or Johnson) and Bute two fights he is extremely capable of winning. I have a feeling Calzaghe would come "out of retirement" and try to make a comeback fighting Ward. if the stories about the money he crapped away are true, then I can see it happening.
