      He wasnt whilst in his 30s, just wins back then until 39?. That was his top level, I am not sure why you pretend undefeated title level is not a higher level than win/loss streak between title and no title. Is it your passion for your hero that blinds you?

      Admirable but dont miss the obvious anymore, please. Theres only so many times I can repeat this. Thanks.
      Look at you changing the definition again because you made a fool of yourself. You're a hypocrite who just wants to piss on Calzaghe with the most deranged nonsense I've ever seen. So it's you ironically who is blinded by passion. A passion of hate and illogical bullshlt.

      Hopkins was picking up top level defeats? Who??? He only lost to Calzaghe and Dawson in that time period before he had absolutely nothing left at the end. The only defeat before that was Taylor. But Hopkins should have got the win in one of those fights. To suggest prime fighters can't lose at the top level when history is littered with them further shows how idiotic you are.

      The reason why Hopkins won most fights at Middleweight is because the competition wasn't as good as the period around the Calzaghe fight. If so, who were better than those fighters? A non Middleweight in Oscar? Maybe Hakkar, Allen and Daniels? Haha. Of course you're going to beat that level over the much higher one.

      Hopkins became lineal when he beat Tarver you fool. That's the best title to have. He then took the WBC title off Pascal. But for you to think beating bums with a world title at stake is better than beating Wright and Pavlik without one is just further proof of the nonsense you have whirling around your head. Just stop before you embarrass yourself any further. You can't afford any more ******ity.

      Oh there's something obvious here. It's your unjust hate for Calzaghe which makes you have double standards and show grotesque hypocrisy while contradicting yourself. You've failed when it comes to being reasonable. Why, that's for you to say. But it's clear it's very personal with you.

          I’m a bit surprised at field hockey, never seen it on the telly apart from the olympics..

          That lists a load of rubbish, rugby union and rugby league are two separate sports for example

          I’d of thought darts, snooker, athletics, cycling and F1 would have been in there as they are shown on terrestrial tv

                Thats an American Boxer saying British fight fans are the best. Wouldnt all Boxers want the support British fight fans have for their Boxers? Is that why we are getting salty threads off of Americans?
                yeah im currently in the works to do a documentary on Robbie barrett

                  hes not being clear - people playing the horses at horse races. Not just the jockeys lol.

                  Betting culture on horses is massive in the UK.

                  But I agree thats not really a direct interest in the sport itself., since most of them dont watch it or care about the aesthetics of it.

                  You are right darts and snooker are big too, but not huge. Cycling isnt really. f1 is largely regarded as a fix and boring.

                  Rugby is a little high on that list but theres no way you can write it off, its huge in wales and prominent in Southern England.
