    Oh look, you've got your fallacies out again. Oh great. You said Hopkins wasn't dropped until the Kovalev and Smith fights. You were wrong as per usual. Not only that, but Hopkins was still fighting at the top level and performing when he was dropped by Pascal. Against Mercado, Hopkins wasn't "Old" in any way.

    You asked who else Jones was dropped by. I gave you the names, ******. But you know you love your fallacies.

    You need both hands and feet to count the amount of times Calzaghe was dropped? Well, considering where you're from, it's not surprising you have only 1 finger and 1 toe on each hand and feet. Hahaha.

    Wait, so they were old were they when they were both dropped, but Joe wasn't when being dropped in his last two fights? Duh.

    What are you talking about Andre ward for you idiot? When did he come into the discussion. Take your own advice and take your meds. Quickly.
    Hopkins was in his late 40s when he fought Pascal twice, you took. That's the same Pascal Carl went life & death with.

    Slappy Joe was dropped by old men Hopkins and Roy, Byron Mitchell and some soda can named Kabary Salam. Joe was on his knees more than a dime store hooker. You lie more than a woman.

      I never said the Bute fight was in Wembley. I forgot exactly where it was in England, but I do remember that Bute was a 3:1 favorite.

        Yeah Bute was a big favourite. I expected him to win with ease.

        That fight is where I stopped rooting against Froch and he made me a fan.

          Hopkins was still fighting at a high level when he was facing Pascal. It wasn't even close to being easy to drop him. If it were, everyone would have done so or at the very least, come close to doing so.

          Froch, the Brit, took care of business when facing a prime Pascal. The soft Americans in Dawson and Browne however, got their shlt pushed in. Haha. Typical.

          Do you want to talk about having deformed hands and feet? Is this why you're so insecure? The Kids call you Edward sausage hands?

          Talk to me. I'm here. Just come out from behind the curtains and turn some lights on.

            Froch got his sht pushed in by Ward who had a fractured hand. Hopkins was still old AF when Slappy Joe barely edged him by a point. Joe's best win was Kessler and that was only because Kessler refused to throw the jab for some reason.

            Did Mom bring you more tea & biscuits up there in that dark attic you skulk around in?

              Froch was a pretty good fighter with a pretty good resume. He beat who he was supposed to beat and also a few he wasn't.

                Hopkins WAS 43 when facing Joe. But still at the top of his game. In fact, Joe looked more past his best than Hopkins did around that point.

                Joe only beat Kessler because Kessler didn't use his jab? Calzaghe took it away, that's why. The jab isn't as effective against southpaws either.

                  43 is still 43. Joe was not shot by then. The only damage done to his body by 2008 was done by drugs because he was well-preserved from fighting Euro Cans the first 40+ years of his career. Mario Veit.

                  Kessler fought like he was paid to take a dive that night against Slappy Joe. Imagine constantly being pushed to the ropes by a guy with zero punching power. It was a truly pathetic performance by Kessler.

                    Hopkins wasn't close to being shot. What are you talking about. Hopkins against Kovalev and Smith is shot Hopkins. Not the version that fought Joe.

                    I think you should look at the opponents Hopkins fought before fighting Joe. Now they are poor mostly.

                    Calzaghe had really bad hands at that point. Then you look at his base. Compare a prime Joe to that version with his legs and you'll see the huge difference.

                    It was Joe's timing, control of distance and skill that beat Kessler. ATG's do tend to do things like that.

                      The version of Joe that edged Hopkins and thrashed 94 year old Roy was not quite shot. He wasn't vintage Slappy Joe like the Lacy version, but he was not shot.

                      Kessler fought timidly that night, nothing like the version that fought Froch twice.
