    You think Taylor beat Hopkins convincingly?

        A win is a win and I think he won more decisively than Joe Calzaghe did. Convincingly, probably not.

            The guy fought Winky, B-Hop, Pavlik. Thats what champions are suppose to do. Who is Carl Froch anyway?

              nah! the first hops-taylor fight was easily for hopkins. the second one was a lil closer, i thought hops won, but it could've went either way. and, i felt hops beat joe c by a point or so, but that was a close one too. had hops been a lil busier (fighting) instead of holding, it would've been an EASY decision for hopkins. joe never got anything going, neither did hops- that KD was decisive to me.


              props to rjj and joe c, if the **** is true.......it think we'd have better fights more often if fighters sat down w/ 1 another and ironed out deals themselves........

              but hey, i guess some guys just wanna fight, and leave the bull**** for someone else to handle......

                What were you watching? I didnt think Taylor won either fight whereas Hopkins didnt do nearly enough to actually win a 12 round fight against Calzaghe.

                  Like you said, B-hop was simply not busy enough to pull off any of those wins. I had both fights scored for Taylor, like the judges. Barely, but as I said before, a win is a win. At least Taylor did'nt look like complete **** beating Hopkins like Calzaghe did. That was the worst display from Calzaghe that I have ever witnessed, and the Jones fight will be even worse. Too much speed and accuracy is going to be Calzaghe's downfall. Watch.

                    Hopkins wasn't busy enough? You mean he didn't miss as much as Taylor??

                    Just don't understand how anybody can score that first fight for JT. Hops dominated.

                      What will happen with the business of the undercard?

                      I would assume they will fight on a Golden Boy promoted show in Vegas, with an undercard put on by GB.

                      If anyone has any details then please, share.
