        Likewise. But,

        Calzaghe is a good fighter that's all.
        Calzaghe is one of two fighters in the whole MW to LHW crop who could currently beat B-Hop, the other one being Dawson. That makes both of them rather more than "good... that's all". Dawson would actually be my third pick. Williams has had a great year too, but he's one fight against quality opposition short, I think.

            how many times did Jones and Hops in their career pick on 40 year olds? Heck, Jones got discredited for beating a 35 year old trinidad. If other fighters aren't getting credit for beating anyone over 35, Calzaghe shouldn't either.

                I don't know too much about Williams or Dawson. I watched Dawson vs. Tarver and i wasn't really impressed.

                I don't think i've ever seen Williams fight.

                New face in boxing....Andre Berto. Watch out for this kid. He's going to be god.

                    Why would someone have Hops in there?

                    He lost.

                            Because of what Hopkins has done in his career, his accomplishments, fighting style...ya know....yadda yadda yadda.

                            Hopkins only fought twice this year i think?

                            Calzaghe and Pavlik?

                                No.1 this year is no-contest for PAC ....

                                No. 2 is tighter competition, with the likes of JoeCal, B-hops, Marg, even Darch...

                                    Pacman for sure he earned it.
