    who were those 16 opponents and what have they done?calzaghe gets aloty of flak for lacy not doin anything after losing to calzaghe so what did any of those fighters do that hopkins beat?hopkins and calzaghe are mirror images of eachother 2 fighters that dominated ****ty divisions but i guess since hopkins is american he gets more credit for doin the same thing calzaghe did

            how did calzaghe dominate his division compared to hopkins? hopkins fought every top fighter in the division and fought twice as many top 10 opponents. how is that the same?

              When Calzaghe was "dominating" his division, there was another "undefeated" fighter with 20 something title defenses in his division.

              During B-Hop reign, how many other MW's had double digits title defenses?

              Yea they're the same alright

                    Cazares was a top 10 in the division.

                      Because, you act as if the TS is questioning his skills/talent or what Calderon is capable of doing in the ring.

                      That's not what the TS is questioning at all, he's just pointing out that most of Calderon title defenses didn't come against the toughest competition.

                      Do you see a difference?
