Lets say Joe Calzaghe beats Mikel Kessler very convincingly, ie a career best performance. Then he beats Bernard Hopkins in a comfortable Unanimous decision. Then retires.

Where is he in your all time great p4p rankings?

Not another JC thread -.-

Here's an idea, mate. See if you dont like a thread, dont reply to it. Then it will go away quicker.

LOL, he is not top 100 of all-time.

He would have a very strong case to be top 5 in post WWII Britain though.

Calzaghe came five or so years too late, no one but the hardcore has heard of Kessler, I suspect he struggles to be a household name in his own house;). If Joe was around in 90 to 95 he could of fought prime/near prime Benn, Eubank, Watson and Collins, and that would of meant more than beating Lacy and Kessler IMO.

I'll be in shock if you can manage to name 100 greater fighters without embarrassing youself.
