    Eastman?

    After the Hopkins fight where do people rate Eastman within the division, give me a top 5 if you dare.

    eastman isnt a top 20, much less a top 5. maybe overseas he's top five, but not here,for damn sure. after that fight i'd say eastman is #24 or so

        whats funny is they actually thought he was a contender overseas. just shows you how much of a lesser circuit they have over there.
        (No offense, great fighters have come out of it, lennox lewis,klischkos,naz,carpentier)


        the fight reminded me in a lot of ways of Barrera vs Naz, I really wanted Naz to win too, I have always been a die hard naz fan. anyway, the way MAB exposed naz's style reminds me of how Hopkins exposed eastman, albeit not aggressively like MAB did, but he definately did expose him

          ABSOLUTE ****ING COBBLERS.

          Eastman is still top five who else is there, a total dearth at middleweight he got beat 117-113 on one scorecard thats not a total disgrace, newsflash tito got KOTFO'd by hopkins after taking more of a beating than howard did, so did de la hoya.

          dont be so bloody ******, top 25.

          Eastman is well placed to take on the likes of taylor ikeke et al when nard vacates.

          some of you really do talk out of the wrong end of your bodies at times.

            Eastman is ****, he's a trash talking baby who whines to the media about whatever he can to make it look like their was reasons he lost. Hopkings is the true champion, no matter what Eastmans whiney mouth says, Hopkins owned him, and I'd like to see a rematch to show Eastman fans that yet again, B-Hop will beat Eastman

                im saying he didnt read my post.
                some are making out he isnt top 25 f.f.sake.

                im no howard fan i think he is one paced and one dimensional but he still has a say in the middleweight div.

                  clunk clunk...doesn't seem like there's much upstairs.

                  I'm no Eastman fan but I can see that he belongs about 4-5 in a poor division. Further to your point about trash talking, Eastman is a fairly reserved character unlike Nard who loves a bit of a jibe.

                    The fact is Hopkins wasn't going to stand and fight with eastman, but put Eastman in with Taylor that would be a fight both are big hitters, this would be a good test for Taylor also What about Eastman Vs Sturm?

                    Top 5:

                    1.Hopkins
                    2.Trinidad
                    3.Taylor
                    4.Eastman
                    5.Sturm
