    LOL. It sure does.

      When a good deal comes through the door, he will take it.
      Thats exactly what I was thinking. He's still saying "never say never".

      If hes really done, then good luck to him and congratulations on a great career.

        ATG is opinion, and my opinion is he's an ATG.

        How was Hopkins "way over the hill" when he dominated the Undefeated knockout artist that was Americas "next big thing" in his very next fight.

        But, I guess haters will always be haters.

        You don't need to reply to this, as I already know your answer.

        Haters are so predictable on this forum.

              Klitschko was STOPPED, due to blows that busted his mouth, cheekbone and nearly ripped out his eye.

              Hopkins lost on a SPLIT DECISION.

              **edit**

              And looked the exact same as when he entered the ring.
              A fighter stopped due to cuts when leading the cards is less controversial?

              ROFLMAO.

              BTW I didn't know appearences had anything to do with it. You dont get busted up by slaps.... And if appearances had anything to do with it I could probably name countless fights where the winner looked like a loser yet still won in convincing fashion...

                to me ricky Hatton will go down as a better fighter than Calzaghe..
                Say what you will about hatton...But he always tryed to fight the best in their prime.

                    So Lewis is not I true fighter I guess....
                    vitali was cut by a punch no? he lost fair and square, and i was actually pulling for him........
