    So if Quillin turned down the fight with Korobov, out of loyalty to Haymon, would that make it ok?

    Isn't there a feisty impoverished and abused girl that would be willing to stand up for a round or two?

    I would rate him top 10, but I don't think he's top level. Top level to me are guys like Pascal, Stevenson, Hopkins, Kovalev et cetera. He's a step below that in my eyes, a contender level guy really.

    Nah, I'd give him a good shot against Braehmer though.

    The only 3 fights that Fonfara has no chance of winning is Beterbiev, Kovalev, and Stevenson.
    Every other fight he wins, or the fight is a competitive loss.

    He couldn't KO Bute because Bute fought scared more than anything, the Froch fight took his bottle.

    Fonfara is easier to hit, he's a slower and less skilled guy in general and he leaves his chin wide open in the air, Pascal would hurt and stop him eventually with one of his bombs, it was an absolute miracle that the guy went 12 rounds with Stevenson before you mention it.

    Hopkins is a better boxer, I don't have to explain why I think he outboxes Fonfara.

    Either way, I can't really be ****d to make another prolonged argument here, neither of us can be proved wrong until they step in the ring anyway. If you think he beats them both, good for you, I guess you really rate Fonfara for whatever reason, the guy you claimed was outboxed by Karpency.
