Whoever says luck did not play a part is not being realistic. Do you think Pernell Whitaker deserved the decision he got against JLR ? now i know you aint going to tell me Whitaker is not as talented as Calzaghe.
Anything can happen in a fight and no one, i repeat no one is good enough to calculate for every eventuality no matter how good they are/were.
I think Calzaghe's skill was a big factor but to deny he has also had a bit of lucky on his side is not realistic imo. I dont think he has ever been cut in his career has he ? no one can be that calculated as to avoid stuff like that, that kind of thing has happened to better fighters than Calzgahe so dont tell me its because Joe is that great.

And people give me red k on here for saying anything bad about Chavez... But I don't think Chavez was that good, I believe he fought much smaller guys than himself and was embarrassed at times in the fight with Whitaker.
Whitaker was far more skilled than Calzaghe imo.
Whitaker also made Haugen, Azumah Nelson, Roger Mayweather Vasquez, Jose Luis Ramirez look pedestrian.
Calzaghe put on a couple of white washes but Whitaker did it on a regular basis.
I can give you at least 3,4 flawless performances to watch of Whitaker where you jaw will be on the floor at the skill level he had.
Calzaghe never beat no Azumah Nelson, JCC.
Chavez beat the living day lights out of good fighters like Camacho, Haugen, Mayweather,, Rosario so i dont know how you call him overrated, if you have had over 80/90+ fights you might stop slipping a bit towards the end, no shame in getting dominated by Whitaker he did it to many good fighters.
