    Hopkins was coming off a win over Winky and Tarver and beat Pavlik after Calzaghe fight.

    Eubank was 4-2 before he fought Calzaghe. Had two fights at 175 before Calzgahe fight. Took the fight at short notice. He was planning to fight at 175 for WBC title but had to enter a 2 week weight draining regime to make weight. Eubank never won a fight again

    Hopkins 43 > Any version of Eubank FACT


    Hopkins is the only fighter who did something after Calzaghe. Lacy NO Kessler NO
    Coming from a fan of Floyd who fought Baldomir, a guy with 9 losses then. Isn't this the same fight who turned down Margarito because he had 5 losses?
    Also the same fighter who fought Zudah just after he'd lost his previous bout?

    Mayweather may have some better names on his resume overall, but the difference is Calzaghe wanted to fight the best at 168, Mayweather didn't at 140, 147, 154.

      What so great about beating a weight drained way past it fighter.

        Kessler must be fuming with his management if he wasn't already.
        Is Kessler leaving Palle? I read that the Larsen fight would have been his last under Palle. He should leave Palle and sign with another promoter if he wasn't going to already, I'm sure one of the major US or UK promoters would be willing to sign him.

          He turned down Margarito because he didn't want to do business with Arum. Arum owes Mayweather money from the Judah fight and he has not denied this.

          Calzaghe fought Lacy(Green) Eubank (weight drained and past it) and Kessler a decent win.

          Mayweather has fought more prime fighters, more p4p fighters and fought in 5 weight classes and is the better boxer.
          Plain and simple common sense

                Flawless made a bet that Pavlik would win against Hopkins and if he didn't then he would leave this forum and not post here ever again. Instead Flawless just changed his name to Sugar May Floyd.

                  Haha!

                  He needs to go and watch a few fights which don't feature Floyd. He might learn a few things then.

                    Is that all you got. I canceled the bet before the fight even started. **** people forget. Especially Calzaghe fan. Always got to reminds that Eubank was nothing when he fought Calzaghe
