    Calzaghe has'nt faced an undersized Elite fighter or an over the hill Elite fighter ,so lets keep it in perspective

    not to say Hopkins is better than Calzghe cause i dont think he is but u cannot Knock Hopkins cause u are a Zag fan & Hopkins record makes his look ordinary

    im more of a Zag fan than a B Hop fan i just think Hopkins deserves some respect for his acomplishments
    Chris Eubank was an elite fighter in my book, and at 31, he wasn't exactly over the hill.

      take a look at Beyer record who on his record suggests he was an Elite fighter ,exactly therefore Kessler beat a good solid Champion but nothing special & definetly not Elite

        Eubank Elite who did he beat

        He got outboxed by Dan Schommer & should have lost that fight ,he was'nt shot against Collins IMO and he was dominated ,if anybody was shot against Collins it was Nigel Benn

        Eubank does'nt meassure up well against any of the top fighters like McCallum ,Toney ,RJJ ,he would have got beaten by all of these

          i think Eubank was good dont get me wrong but there is a world of difference between being a good Champion to being an Elite fighter

            Most big name fighters are bound to have haters, with some exceptions of course.
