    I dont know what to make of the Pavlik win, what does it mean when the no 1 ranked lhw beats the no 1 ranked mw?

    Hopkins vs Wright was garbage, he gets no credit for that

    I would argue that Jones was pretty much shot by 2008, but at least he was on a winning streak and Calzaghe outworked him. When Hopkins got to him, he was coming off a loss by way of ko and was headbutted and rabbit punched over 12 rounds. Jones also got paid for fighting Calzaghe

    I can agree with this. Kassler's best win at smw is over Froch. Tito's best win is over Joppy

    Also
    No contests:
    Calzaghe:0
    Hopkins:1
    Hopkins jumped out of the ring against Allen and faked that injury so he could keep his belt
    Draws:
    Calzaghe:0
    Hopkins:1
    What is Hopkins doing drawing with journeyman like Mercado?
    Losses:
    Calzaghe:0
    Hopkins:Mitchell, Taylor I, Taylor II, Jones, Calzaghe

      Let's face facts here. Light heavyweights don't weigh in at 157 when there 40 years old. Nice try though.
