lacy, kessler, maybe eubank [lol]? i can only think he was number 1 for SMW, and defended his title 20+ times when not even half his wins can be "great" but still a noticable feat. beat hopkins for 175 lineal title, jones was just a name fight. HOF fighter.thats about it, ATG? nope.

"...maybe Eubank?" Are you serious? Maybe Eubank as a career defining fight. Anyone that beat Eubank, not matter how great, he would be one of their biggest, if not the biggest, career defining fights. Do you know who Eubank is? You're laughing at what exactly?
How is it that you laugh at that but then list Kessler and Lacy as career defining fights?

The only time anyone beat Eubank by more than 1 round was Calzaghe, his KO loss was a doctor stoppage when he was winning on all three cards with one eye.
The fact you treat him without repect shows how little you know of the subject, Eubank would be considered extremely respectable on anyone resume.

I'd put money on it you never even saw Eubank box, or followed his career in any way.
Does that look like a shot fighter to you?Last edited by hammerhiem; 01-22-2009, 04:09 AM.

thats 5/46 defining fights. 0.10% great ratio tome.
i dont see how he's considered ATG before DLH/Mosley.
hes really over rated.

Add in Reid (Ring top 10 SMW 96-00 and 03-05), Brewer (97-03), Mitchell (00-03).
Added to: Lacy, Kessler, Hopkins, Eubank, RJJ(Shot).
Suddenly it's 8 of 46 and really it's 8 of 24 because noone expects career defining fights before the reach world level.
Is that ATG? of course not, but don't act like the guy was fighting nobodies his entire career, I can add another couple of world champions to that list aswell by the way.

Eubank = HOF'er. It was always Calzaghe's best win, in my opinion.
