i agree
Winky - Hopkins
Mayweather - Oscar
Taylor - Spinks(call me crazy but as a jt fan i though he would've went in there looking for a good k.o. win)
Everyone was saying Hopkins/Wright was a bad match up and was going to be a snooze fest, so I don't think that counts. Here is a lil example of what experts were saying pre-fight:
Anyone who knows the phrase “Styles make fights” must know that this is a horrible match up. Yeah, you’ve got the two big names for HBO to promote, but anyone who knows a lick about boxing knows that putting two veteran defensive counterpunchers together is a surefire snoozefest recipe. And I say that as a huge fan of both fighters. If the Hopkins-Taylor fights can generously be called chess in the ring, then this match up will be like Scrabble without an hourglass timer. source
With that said, Taylor/Spinks was horrible. ODH/Mayweather didn't live up to the hype, but wasn't technically a bad fight. Cant really rember what else, I seem to recall Allan Green being in a disappointing match or two. Calzaghe/Kessler was a lil disappointing, I thought it was going to be much more competitive. Antonio Tarver.
