    Outside of Floyd I have never seen a fighter more difficult to get off on than B-Hop so Pascal looking the way he did does not mean he is a bad fighter.

    LHW is pretty solid and in a year or so it will be loaded when Ward, Dirrell, Bute, Froch and others move up.


    This is agree with.....the void will be at 68 in a few years time.

      This, it's one thing when a old Holyfield is competitive against a Heavyweight Title Holder in Valuev. A holyfield who's already been dominated by other fighters. That speaks more volumes about the HW division than Holyfield.

      It's another thing when it's a old Hopkins, who has ever dominated him, good or bad, old or young?

        Have you seen his fight against Keith Holmes? Almost no different than Orneles and he whooped Trinidad after that fight.
        Except Holmes is a long time proven champ of great ability and Ornelas is a tune up fight hack.
