        Was Mitchell really robbed by Ottke though, or is it just people putting two and two together and assuming he was?

          Its not Ottkes fault. Byron Mitchell was ****** enough to take HIS title to Germany to fight Sven Ottke.

          Honestly, what would inspire you to take your title to Germany to fight Sven Ottke?

          Same deal with Charles Brewer. He took HIS title to Germany. Why would you do that? Germany has a well established tradition of stealing world titles and distributing them to their own fighters.

          Its not just Sven Ottke, I don't think any German champion has ever lost a title fight in Germany.

            Calzaghe took his fight to Germany to fight Veit. He just took it out of the hands of the judges though.

              LMAO, Calzaghe got up and KO'd Mitchell immediately after the knockdown in the 2nd round. Joe Calzaghe has something Roy Jones Jr. will never have...a big heart and a great chin...Jones Jr. has a glass chin and he lacks heart.

                  as far as mnunurner saying "no way, he beats Hopkins"...thats just wack. Joe has a better chance then JT did..but you cant sleep on Hopkins he is willing to foul his way to victory.
                  I agree.

                  However we are talking a guy with awesome speed and skill and most importantly in this fight stamina.

                  Taylor beat Hopkins at his own game in two borefests (what was the punch count?), Calzaghe wont stop throwing shots and Hopkins only chance in my opinion is that he catches Calzaghe with a counter and knocks him out.....however Calzaghe has a great chin so.....
