    Not only maidana... he consistently chooses guys on good form.. you could argue its smart when he chooses them as marketing goes etc..... none the less he doesn't take on guys whov been losing and taking beatings..

    Who is the best welter? Floyd... 2nd best manny/marquez/bradley (really can't pick) none can fight floyd... well marquez could but he don't want it.. who else.. throw some names out there like i asked.. you won't be able to.. remember ones who enhance his legacy and are financially good fights.. if he beats guys like porter or thurman it'l jst be they weren't ready etc...

    Duran-Hoya/Pacquiao
    Leonard-Mayweather/Mosley
    Hearns-Trinidad/Forrest
    Hagler-Hopkins/Toney
    Are all 50/50 55/45 type fights so saying this era is just so weak compared to the past is dumb

    none of them are 50-50 except for Hagler Hopkins/Toney - and thats the era before Mayweather

    Dont disagree with the greatest lightweight of all time and one of the greatest middleweights of all time

    Enzo knew Slappy was behind They all knew he got a gift and Bernard Hopkins had been robbed yet Again!!!!!!!!!
    This was born out when Bernard offered to go to Wales for a rematch to end the controversy. What did Calzaghe do? Shot his loyal Welsh fans the finger took to the hills & retired like the coward he is,
    Whats Bernard doing today?? Still kicking the asses ofguys young enough to be his sons. Challenged Adonis Stevenson to a fight in CANADA all at almost 50 yrs old
    Whats Slappy Calzaghe doing?? According to reports he's been sniffin coke, getting drunk, chasing hoes, after dumping his long time G/F & hunting & killing innocent little rabbits. I guess the killing little rabbits suits Slappy they cannot fight back.
    To some it all up & in the words of the great Larry Holmes.... Calzaghe aint fi to carry Bernards jockstrap.
    Slappy knew Nard would kick his coward ass all up and down the Rhondda Valley.
