Oscar was the easiest defense either Joe or 'Nard ever took

    He was 19, you know that? ANd how many fights did he have there?

      Maybe, I wasn't addressing that.

      Though Kessler is huge at 168 and had a half-dozen title defenses.

      Kessler was also picked to beat Hopkins (fantasy) by over 80% of this site's posters.

        Put it this way. Both Lacy and Tito were one-dimensional. But Tito had a sparkling resume. He was an undisputable pound-for-pounder.

        Personally I rank Hop's best wins over Johnson, Tarver, Wright and Trinidad.

          That can hardly be held as a badge of honour considering the general idiocy of many posters here. One guy yesterday tried to tell me Wladimir Klitschko would have tested a prime Tyson.

            Doesn't matter, as KayJay already said names don't mean **** if the dude is from a lower class (that would take credibility away from a lot of historical boxing matches, btw). Kessler was from a lower class, therefore, using KayJay's logic, that win didn't mean **** for Calzaghe.

            BTW, I'm playing ****** if you didn't realize. But it makes sense by this dude's logic. LOLZ.

              No, it is not my logic.

              I'd ask you to be reasonable, but I'm not sure you're capable

                You are taking words too literally, I think it does not take half a brain to understand that what he meant that a natural welterweight is not a middleweight. And if you are telling me that Kessler is a natural jr. middleweight then we really have nothing to talk about.

                    I'm playing devil's advocate. And if you think DLH and Tito weren't big wins for Hopkins, we really have nothing to talk about. This Whole Hopkins/Calzaghe resume thing is really being played out. We know they're both future HOF'ers and theyre fighting in about 36 hours. What's the point if talking about fights 4 and 7 years old?
