    Better resume? What Robin , Manfredo , Mario Viet (twice). Come one.
    Roy Jones only had 7 fights at the weight. Granted Toney was one (the first) of those, but I'd still take Calzaghe's overall resume as far as what they have achieved at the weight.

    Eubank, Kessler, and Lacy (yes Lacy) would for example all start as favorites against all Roy's smw-opponents, bar Toney, imo.

    Calzaghe!

    Jones didn't get enough done at the weight. Sure on a P4P basis Jones is better all time but based on achievements at the weight its Calzaghe!

    Remember Jones fought at heavyweight too & he was P4P #1 with his win over Ruiz, his ability & talent was miles ahead of many heavies but unfortunately he didn't get enough work done at the weight to make it matter imo!
    The Best There Is, The Best There Was, The Best There Ever Will Be
