    An old Eubank? 31 dude.
    Eubank wasn't prime was he. If he was Calzaghe would have been knocked out.

    And yeah, Course I think Roy could beat Hopkins now. Me or you probably could aslong as we threw 200 punches around, no matter how soft they are. it worked for Joe, it can work for us.

      Eubank wasn't quiet in his prime, he wasn't the same after the Watson fight but he was hardly shot and to take him as your first 12 rounder of your career is unheard of.....

        Don't kid yourself buddy, you wouldn't last a round with Hopkins.

          Actually, that's not it at all. I'm reading through this thread right now, so I'll make my decision on who I want to debate with in due time. You're the front runner though.

            And I could easily name 10-15 fighters Calzaghe beat during his defence reign who were also dog****. I just cant stand his style. Against Lacy he was good but every other time i've seen him fight he's got no technique at all. all he has is his hand speed. He wins by throwing more and being more active. He has no power, **** timing. I just don't believe he deserves all this hype he's getting.

            Stick Calzaghe in the ring with ANY all time great between 160 and 175 and he loses. Simple as.

              OBVIOUSLY I wasn't being serious! Don't reply to me anymore. After that I have no interest in hearing what you've got to say.

                Fighters age differently. Eubank was at the end of the road, and back to back losses to Thompson after his fight with Joe C proved that. Eubank is a good win, but far from a great win.

                    Eubank went up to Crusierweight....thats why he lost...

                      The wisest thing to do is to ignore the haters. Don't feed the trolls, my friends!

                      Actually, it's quite the opposite. I'll state my case in due time, I'm in no hurry really. It's Saturday, and I'm enjoying my day.
