Bundy the Clown is certainly scraping the bottom of the **** barrel here. Let's examine some of these prize arse nuggets you have ejaculated onto the internet:
A fighter he was expected to lose to, who was supposed to expose him as a protected euro***, a guy who was the saviour of boxing, a guy who was the new Mike Tyson and would go down in the annals of history as an all time great. And Joe toyed with him like he was a novice class amateur.
Deciphering your mangled English here I think you're suggesting that Calzaghe would struggle with Hopkins' later opponents with the possible exception of De La Hoya. He would beat every single one of them including the twice victorious Taylor with relative ease.
Mister Im (sic) listening to what internet message boards are feeding me.
Lacy had two less fights than Taylor in the first fight with Hopkins and he also held a world title. At least Calzaghe made sure Lacy failed his test.
Green, Mundine, Beyer, Bute, Miranda, Taylor are all at Super Middleweight along with Inkin, Froch, Bika. It's pretty stacked up there.
As for Hopkins' career since turning 40, well he turned 40 in January 2005 and since then has fought the legendary Howard Eastman, lost to a guy who got starched by the next actual Middleweight he fought (twice), beat the supremely confident and well prepared Tarver and used "wily skills" (headbutting and hugging) to beat the massive heavy handed Winky Wright. His two "biggest wins" (which came against the smallest two guys he ever fought) were when he was 36 and 39.
He has beaten three of the top fighters of the last 50 years, Felix Trinidad, Oscar De La Hoya and Winky Wright. All three of whom had their best days at at least two weights south of where Hopkins tackled them.
154 lbs? Are you serious? Vernon Forrest and Oscar De La Hoya? That is depth?
I'm glad you're participating, you make every single other poster on this message board look more intelligent by comparison.
Lets be real. Joe's Resume consists of Jeff Lacy a fighter at the time who only had 22 fights. Thats all I hear he beat jeff lacy. Woo Hoo big deal.
lets be real Either outside of Del la hoya any of Hopkins last opponents would give Joe all kinds of trouble.
Mister Im listening to what the media is feeding me.
Lacy was up and coming he had not being tested.
And who actually fights at 168 lbs. Nobody! Nothing to clean up. Kessler is good and I ganrantee he will not fight at 168 for long. Its no money in it. I mean Joe is going to square up and get hit often straight down the pipe. To compare the two resumes is crazy to me Hopkins resume after 40 is better thans Joes whole career.

Aside of that he has beaten some of the top fighters in the last 50 yrs.
Are you serious second deepest what about 154, 130, and 147's. 168 has some great fighters. But the great fighters of the sport are in other divisions.
