    is it because he's Black?
















    No but seriously, do you think all this because of Hopkins age?

      I wouldnt say that. In fact I'm not really sure what Hopkins has done to put him on another level. If it takes beating Tarver, not a problem. If it takes beating a blown up Winky that can be done too.

          That's not what Jermain Taylor said. Aside from DLH (best from 130 to 147) and Trinidad (best at 147) who did Hopkins beat at middleweight exactly? He barely beat Wright (best at 154) at 170, how much did Hop outweigh Winky on fight night? (I know he weighed around 185-190 vs Tarver)

            I don't see how Wright won that fight. No.

            He was roughed up, and Nard was the one landing the harder punches inside and initiating clean punching flurries. Wright's usual jab to death attack was working in it's own right, but it's like he hit a wall. He was getting beat up.

              That is most of the reason, sure, he has done extremely well for his age, but you can't deny the fact that he is getting older, it can only go downhill from here.

                Edit: Nevermind, it seems im packed with bets, but Calzaghe will win.
                damn, that would've been an easy bet for me. like picking apples.

                    Nope i don't have one racist bone in my body.

                    If you look at Winky fighting at super middleweight or whatever they fought at, that wasn't his weight. And Hopkins he is fantastic at his age, but he brawls his way to wins.

                    Kessler is a far superior fighter than Hopkins. And Calzaghe superior to Kessler.

                      Hopkins is going to beat Calzaghe because he matches up great with Southpaws with his counter right. Calzaghe also squares himself up too often, and when you put that against a genius counter puncher it spells trouble. Hop's right hand will land over and over.

                      That doesnt mean he's on another level though. For example Calzaghe would never lose to Taylor.
