      Not sure about in that one weight class but overall? Certainly.

        At 168 I would say no. Overall I would say maybe. I'm not sure how much his PEDs helped him along prior to the failed test.

          Certainly overall, but exclusively in that division? Hard to say! Like so many things in life, it depends ow one measures the information. Generally speaking Joe seemed to avoid the highest level of competition, that is until it had diminished considerably. If we do not assume the judges decisions particularly, there is a case to be made that Hopkins won that fight, and Jones was so past his best...

            I'd say Canelo has a better resume at 168.

                  I could see Zags getting the win here. But I wouldn't count Alvarez out of it. Ted Spoon use to post on AOL years ago. Always knew his stuff and very informative boxing historian.

                    Canelo's greater, but Calzaghe would've easily outboxed Cinnamon.
