:lol: Did you watch saturday night's fight?
I know that, I'm just telling you that this version of Hopkins was a lesser fighter than the older one. Just as Roy was better when he dominated...
Taylor initiated most of the exchanges when he fought Hopkins, he didn't play the counter puncher. I think his handspeed had more to do with his...
Fuck you.:flip: (Will you ever be able to respectfully disagree with people?) I thought nard was a 5-1 underdog BTW.
It might have been obvious to you, but Hopkins was still a bigger underdog in this fight than in the Pavlik fight. And before the Tito fight,...
What's a proper rating for Hopkins then?
Of course, he's a career middleweight, and he's way bigger than Tito. But I don't think he's a great middleweight, not yet. He still has time...
Well, if you want to play the game of "Woulda, Coulda", don't you think the Hopkins of 2001 is greater than the one that went life and death with...
Are you implying Pavlik's a great middleweight? I mean what did he do to deserve such accolades?
As far as high profile wins go, Pavlik's got the edge, but Kessler has beaten a wider variety of styles and did very good against Calzaghe, who'll...
:bears:
Then both Glenn Johnson and Tarver are greater than Roy... And Hopkins is greater than both Johnson and Tarver! Catch 22... :lol: Seriously, I...
What Pavlik did that was so great? Nothing that would make him a great fighter, but you and I still picked him to beat Hopkins... Based on what?...
I don't know who Kessler is fighting next, and it has little to do with my analysis. I've always been convinced Kessler would beat Pavlik, and...
The minute a fighter comes from europe, you automatically label him a bum LOK. If Mikkel Kessler's name was Micheal (Insert american name here)...
I've always thought that Kessler would beat Pavlik rather easily, but they're far from being virtually identical. Pavlik is a come forward basic...
No, he's implying the contrary.
Tito just had destroyed the other Middleweight champ, almost nobody said size would be a factor in this fight before the fight. Only once Hopkins...
I agree the Tarver win was a great one, but I've heard Tarver had to shed the weight he took for Rocky and that might have diminished him. All...
I must add though that the Pavlik win is the one that impressed me the most. I didn't know Hops' still had enough left to pull that kind of...
I think the Tito win was the greatest when you put it into proper context. Queens of hindsight will say Tito was never that good to begin with but...
huh? He never fought again after Hopkins...
I don't think Gatti was particularly gifted mentally either, I'd say what lead to achieve what he did is a physical talent, an incredible capacity...
Sly, you need to calm down a little bit, this correct pick is inflating your already over-inflated ego, and everybody knows now that you had a...
Personnally, it reminded me of Hopkins Trinidad. It was almost a carbon copy except Hopkins didn't knock Pavlik out.
No, I mean Roy included.
I don't see how Hopkins' bigger than Pavlik. In fact, I think Pavlik's a bit taller.
I don't think Hopkins could have made 160, but with the way Hopkins dominated last night, I have a hard time seing a Pavlik win, under any...
You think the outcome would have been different if they had fought at 160?
:lol: Sly's self esteem lies on this site, dude. :lol:
