Yeah, Koufax was pretty special and, at his best, was absolutely spectacular. It looked like his curveball dropped two feet. Batters looked stupid. Blyleven threw a great curve, but all in all, I'll go with Koufax.

Kershaw is pretty special too. But he isn't Koufax, at least not yet IMO. And, as mentioned before, Koufax didn't fade in the big games which, as also mentioned before, is currently a fair criticism of Kershaw.
