      So at 27 we are all asking Jermain to do something Bernard never did...take a risk against a bigger fighter?

      I think Jeff has to be given the edge but who knows I would give him the edge against the inflated defensive specialist who cant crack an egg Bernard Hopkins too!

          No Greatest Im not talking about you Im just trying to reinforce the fact that Bernard is not the fighter that people were saying he was...he is very very good, but he is by no means the greatest middelweight of all time given the fact hat he has defenses over a patheitc group of middleweight challengers!

          Had Bernard been fighting in his prime in the 80's and early 90's we may just consider him another alphabet titelist.

          Again sometimes a fighter needs to be just as lucky as he is good...I believe this to be the case!

            I agree with you, I never considered him great because of his defenses, I just thought he would KO Taylor tonight in convincing fashion to prove himself you know...

            but that wasn't successful, I still respect him though and going to keep the avatar...

              I would pick Taylor vs Lacy. Taylor would have a lot more openings vs Lacy then Hopkins.

                No, I've seen taylor fight at least 5 times, and he's shown me nothing that suggests he can keep up with Lacy, mid to late TKO. I'll bet real money on that fight.

                  i no im gonna get slated for this but anywayz here it is
                  in my humble opinion i dont beleive lacy is gonna get past clazaghe so i think its a bit premature talking about a lacy/taylor match,but i do beleive the winner of lacy/calzaghe will go on to destroy taylor if no1 does it before them
