I think that is exactly why RJJ is gonna beat Calslappy ! I believe his style is tailer made for him ! To be honest if RJJ really seen a threat I don't think he would've to the fight at this point in his career ! I believe he sees something he can capitalize on !

Hopkins beats Pavlik
Margarito beats Cotto

... wait a minute

Man, always being right is fun.

Anyway:

Spinks beats Margarito
Judah beats Hatton
Winky Wright (MIA?) doesn't lose to anyone at 160, including Pavlik.

Hopkins was a heavy underdog going into his fight against Pavlik but won, arguably because his style gave Pavlik a hard time. What would be an example of a fight where someone would be upset because styles make fights?

Here are some examples:
Hatton loses to Ricardo Torres
Mayweather loses to Margarito
W. Klitschko loses to Arreola
Taylor loses to Miranda

depends on which hopkins you are talking about... a potshotting hopkins or a combination-punching hopkins. everyone was expecting the potshotting hopkins but we got the combo-punching hopkins instead.

I give pavlik a chance of beating a hopkins who stays in a defensive shell. pavlik has no chance against a combination-punching hopkins.
