Fair point, but surely Hopkins losing twice to a guy who wasn't as good as Kessler has to count for something
As you rightly say, most fighters say this stuff about a person they have beat. In those cases I take it with a pinch of salt, but this is...
I know it's your opinion and this is all subjective, but didn't Louis say something along the lines of Rocky being able to give him trouble at any...
By losing to him?
OK, say Tito puts Hopkins up, then what about the fact Calzaghe comfortably beat his heir apparent, whilst Hopkins lost twice to his?
Maybe not individually but both fighters back to back probably even it out.
Also Eubank > Mercado. Only took one attempt as well.
Well if you wanna add Trinidad as the monster at the time, then I'll raise you the "168 Mike Tyson" Jeff Lacy and "Heir apparent" Kessler, which...
Only in name, imo, was never really that high on Tito. Also I'm pretty sure Joe would have done the same kind of job on Trinidad.
Well, Hopkins agreed to fight Joe back in his fighting prime, and then pulled out to demand more money. So you can't really blame Calzaghe for...
Did anything ever come of it Hut do you know? Obviously it wasn't going to be liscenced boxing, so there was unfortunately a real chance of it...
This is true my friend :lol:
He had Kessler and Eubank as well. Hopkins best wins were Tito and a shit De La Hoya at a weight he shouldn't have been at. He lost his titles...
Yea it's a shame what happened to him in later life, wasn't he meant to be considering fighting again at 60 years old or something?
I really don't see a marked difference to be honest
He did have options, he could have moved up comfortably. However, disregarding that, what were the major differences between the actual reigns...
:laughing:
...and Hopkins reign at 160? Calzaghe often gets shat on because he was content to stay in the UK fighting no-names in a dead division, which...
I saw a video the other day when Roach was talking about how much of a risk it was preparing to fight the much bigger Barrera, kinda crazy when...
Amir's standing on a battered and bruised Marcos Maidana...
It will be great, like Saved By The Bell - The College Years...
Anyone remember this absolute classic thread from the secondsout days? I think it was Xplosive who started it originally. So who is class clown,...
Didn't know you were a fan of Buchanan cdogg
Feebs is right, you can question Amirs chin but not his heart. Don't see what he has to do with this topic though
Pacquiao close UD
Well, I'd actually prefer Millwall. A) Because they're shit and it would be nice to have a guaranteed 6 points next season, and B) because Danny...
:laughing: He does have a spazzy smile, no doubt :lol:
Irish you're on form man :laughing:
Abraham is made for Calzaghe. Ward is the only one with a real shot, Dirrell possibly
Johnny fucking Nelson John Ruiz Henry Akinwande Keith Holmes Ricky Hatton Michael Gomez Ian Napa David Haye Cory Spinks Chris Byrd...
