    Yeah, I think Calzaghe beats Hopkins and if he fights the way he shold, I think he does it about as comfortably as one can beat a fighter with Hopkins' intelligence and guile.

    As for Woods and Dawson? I see no reason why Woods should beat Calzaghe. He's solid, but not spectacular in any area and fighters f that ilk sholdn't worry a Calzaghe. Ever.

    As for Dawson? He seems to have a much higher ceiling than Woods, but I'm not sure if he's better right now, or if he'll ever reach his potential. Physically, Dawson has the goods, but there are serious flaws in his armour at this point in time and Calzaghe has shown over the years that above all else; he's versatile enough to switch up plans and find something that works. I see Dawson as a fighter, vulnerable to such a shape-shifter.

    Tarver is shit and not willing to fight the best at 175 that's why he is irrelevant.

    the fact that he is looking at Lacy as a big fight shows you where he is in his carreer. I don't care what he did in the past. He is past it and not showing he wants to fight the best at 175. So why still put him among the elite?
