And he loses... Rossman was one of the lesser lights of maybe the best 175 era ever and he still better than all of the current crop
Rossman was one of my favorites and was a very talented and gifted fighter, yet very erratic in both his behavior and ring performances. They both utilized the same gyms and some of the same trainers throughout the course of their careers. Rossman had a weakness for both the bottle and the broads, something that Bernard has always avoided as he is perhaps the most dedicated fighter I have ever seen. The Rossman that tore Galindez apart in 13 brutal rounds is pretty tough to pick against, but that is the only fight where he achieved that level of excellence in his career. The pick here is for Hopkins due to his better conditioning, and I think Mike blows his top as usual and lets Hopkins dictate the tempo. Hopkins TKO 11, but Rossman does not go down.
