    definitely Golota after both Bowe fights, hence recieving a title shot against Lennox despite the losses on record

    Jones was a good sport and didn't want sound like sour grapes over the KD which I respect though wetspots were a problem in a few of Jone's fights in his prime. I didn't say the Del Valle KD wasn't legit but certainly there's questions behind it. I thought it was a good punch and I have no problem with it being counted but it wasn't clear enough to me to really make a big deal over it. Personally, I thought the Jones-Toney kd wasn't legit because after the left hook landed Jones used his body to bump into Toney rendering James off-balance. Just my opinion.....

    I tend to think Golota won half of the events when he officially lost:
    Bowe 2x, Byrd, Ruiz ... he got next title shots afterwars

    Hopkins was **** against Calzaghe. It was just a **** close fight where no one got outclassed, just hugged and bucked each other a bit. Calzaghe won and deserved to win. That fight did nothing for Bhops reputation. Sure everyone thaught he was gunna be whooped by a 1 dimensional Pavlik that Calzaghe 'ducked' in his next fight due to his performance against the overrated welsh white man.

    Not how i remember it.... Lewis won the last 3 rounds because Mercer was so tired he was throwing punches very sparingly and Lewis was finally able to keep Mercer at some sort of range
