    yep early thirties, a late prime true.


    meaning Calzaghe waited till Bernie was 10 years past his prime before daring to face him.

    Wouldn't say that

    Calzaghe agreed to fight earlier in Bhops career but it just never got made,
    I've heard Hopkins asked for too much money? And he was focused on staying at middleweight anyway.

    When they eventually fought, it was a boring ugly fight . Neither at their best. Hopkins probably underestimated calzaghe and wasn't motivated . He used his legs too much and not enough of his hands. I still had it 6 rounds a piece.

    In the pavlik fight , Hopkins let pavlik come to him more so , he's not a young man so he can't move around the ring like one.

    Hopkins beats froch for sure. Too accurate and too good a counterpuncher . Just too skilled for Abraham, froch, Kessler

    Dirrel would cause Hopkins the most problems because of his style

    for the De La Hoya multimillion pathway yes.

    I don't count that previous arrangement because I tend to go with what actually happened instead of shouldda couldda wouldda. Its in my book the only measure of men, what they do not what they say they will do. SHouldda couldda wouldda is the cop out of the cowardzaghe.

    Nathan Cleverly said he was the couldda shouldda woulda best LHW in the world, then got found out that he was arguably not the best in Britain, if you get me, I go with what he did, not what his big gob said.

    Dude you're beyond ******ed to discuss boxing with me. Up you boxing IQ and then come talk to me. Its convenient for fanboys like yourself to call boxers glass jawed after their career have crashed.
    The version of Chard Dowson that schooled Tomasz Adamek will literally beat the **** out of Carl Froch. I dear you to make the argument that Froch is more skilled than Adamek.

    As for Froch beating Hopkins. If you know anything about Hopkins then you you would have realized that slow, come forward face first brawlers like Froch are made for order for Bernard Hopkins. Froch will be lucky to land a jab one Hopkins and I doubt Hopkins will have any trouble landing his counters on Froch's overexposed head. A fight between Froch and Hop will look similar to Froch fight against Ward, with Froch face looking more swollen due Hop having more punching power than Hop.

    If you're not able to give technical breakdown of a fight between Hop and Froch, then close you dirty mouth and allow those who know a few thing about the sports to have their say without DKSAB fanboys like you dumb ass interrupting them.:hi:

    it's funny having both HerolGee and aataboi in the same Thread. with them both being side by side, you can then compare them to see who the biggest ****stick is.

    it's definitely Herol. aataboi, you need to up your game. you're not going to accept second position so easily are you??

    Hopkins' stock was so much higher than anyone at 168 when that tournament happened it wouldn't have been worth his time.

    Er, no. You are butt-hurt about your hero Hopkins losing to a white boy and you know it. The amount of butt-hurt that loss has caused among you Hopkins fans and bigots is on an immeasurable scale. It's hilarious the amount of tears and widespread grieving that loss has caused. You guys are still bawling your eyes out like a parent who's lost a young child well over six years after it happened. That's butt-hurt of an epic scale. lol



    I'm afraid you bring that on yourself when you create threads like this

    http://www.boxingforum24.com/showthread.php?t=510261

    And insinuate certain fighters who have clean slates are drug cheats whilst at the same time protesting the innocence of and defending numerous others who have actually failed tests multiple times just because they share the same skin colour as you.

    Or what about your double standards regarding Golovkin and Ward moving up in weight and criticizing the former for desiring a unification match up with a ''former 140 fighter'' who's the current lineal champion in the same division whilst YOU happen to be the biggest jock rider of Bernard Hopkins since they laid momma Shirley Hopkins six feet under lol

    I think in his 40s, Hopkins is vulnerable even against comeforwards. he took a large risk with sheumenov, getting caught might have been a career threatening injury.
