Oscar vs Tito was good till Oscar ran the last rounds...still think he won though.
Hopkins vs Slappy was all Hopkins that made the fight boring as ****.
Considering how fantastic Oscar and Tito were as fighters, that fight is a disappointment to me, even before Oscar's running.
Hopkins vs Slappy was incredibly disappointing and barely watchable. Hopkins looked good everytime he actually threw a ****ing punch, but threw about 18 in total. Slappy just looked like an amateur in there.
Hopkins vs. Calzaghe was always going to be boring and show both guys at their worst. I don't know why people want a rematch; it wouldn't be any different, and both fighters excelled more recently against other opponents.
Biggest letdown of them all would have to be Hoya-Mayweather. The world awaited, the world got a sparring session. It was not a bad fight, but in terms of the anticipation for it and what it delivered, it was probably the worst. Calzaghe-Hopkins was just horrible, worst fight I've ever seen between two P4P stars.

I'd agree with all of that.
Worst thing is, for the sake of trying to score the Hops vs Slappy fight again and come to a definite score in my mind, I downloaded it and re-watched it
Anyone else think Hagler vs Leonard is overrated? I mean, it's fun to see two ATGs fight, and the controversy adds something to it overall - but both were past their best. SRL's speed wasn't what it once was, and Hagler was far from great in there.
