    I think it had far more to do with Abraham being good.

    Jermain's stamina was not an issue, he just made the mistake of not expecting a straight right in the last minute. Jermain appeared very much the same as he always has, minus a little self-confidence.

        Hopkins ruined Taylor.

        So Pavlik , Froch and AA get very little credit.

          JT's stamina issue just make him seem bad if he had a bigger gas tank he would have room to prosper and improve or other areas where he lacks and would have be game a bigger player the the game that we call life, he needs an attach and hold style and he would prosper like John Ruiz or better

            Hopkins didn't even hurt Taylor from what I seen, Wright bruised and battered Taylor but Wright also took a bit of punishment in that fight aswell.

              if you don't think taylor was hurt in the fights against against B-hop you didn't actually watch the fights really he was gases and backing up like a scared dog... but he won on my score cards!!!

                He always gasses, your point? That doesn't mean he was hurt.

                  he didn't gas againt winky wright who you believe punished him???? and when that fight happen it was the first time anyone had seen JT look hurt or bad in a fight on tv. so in essence he showed his weakness... and in boxing having no gas could be considered ready to go.... aka hurt

                      I guess Calzaghe had Hopkins seriously hurt since Hopkins was gassing so much that he had to clinch Calzaghe over 130 times without being DQ'd for it.
