Gerald beat the better fighter in julian jackson, than any of pavliks wins. G man would walk the ghost downComment

Jackson was good no doubt but at that point of his career he was near blind and was never known for having a particularly sturdy jaw. McClellan did take his punches very well though and he got hit with a lot of them. Pavlik would likely hit the canvas if hit with those kind of punches.
Pavlik has fought Hopkins, Taylor (x2) and Miranda, McClellan fought Jackson (x2), Benn and Mugabi (who was shot). There isn't a big difference in the competition they fought.Comment

Machine i have noticed you can take away a fighters win with some story or something about the beaten fighter, you done it with monzon, if thats the case no fighter in history has beat a 100 percent fighter, if its not injuries its there past there prime thats all you ever say.Jackson was good no doubt but at that point of his career he was near blind and was never known for having a particularly sturdy jaw.

It's the truth. Jackson was a great win for McClellan at the time but KO'ing a diminished Julian Jackson doesn't make you invincible. Some people act as if McClellan was one of the great middleweights but he was not.Machine i have noticed you can take away a fighters win with some story or something about the beaten fighter, you done it with monzon, if thats the case no fighter in history has beat a 100 percent fighter, if its not injuries it there past there prime thats all you ever say.
Any objective boxing fan should be able to see that Napoles and Griffith were not great wins for Monzon. They were older and smaller. Monzon's best wins were over underrated prime middleweights such as Rodrigo Valdez and Bennie Briscoe.Comment
