Another well considered reply. This is a bit like buses: Nothing for ages, then they all come at once!!:lol: Do you really think Tito had...
AT LAST!! A poster coherent and intelligent enough to make a rational argument. You MAY well be right. It really depends on what Taylor does...
I agree with your first sentence. For 43 Hopkins is in magnificent shape. However, all the elite victories on his record are of fighters...
I seem to recall him complaining about the Taylor fights as well even though he did nowhere near enough to win.

Sure Calzaghe didn't look brilliant last night, but as anyone who has boxed will know, it's very difficult to look good against an opponent that...
I'm quite happy for you(or anyone else to disagree with me), but so far during this thread no one has given me the name of an elite fighter that...
