    Taylor whopped B-Hop as did RJJ. Calzaghe is debatable.

    You're forgetting RJJ. I thought Caltrashy beat Hopkins, it was close but a clear win for Caltrashy. The first fight with Taylor was a draw in my opinon, the rematch though was a close but clear win for Taylor.

    Hopkins himself admitted he lost to RJJ

    The doubt over Calzaghe / Hopkins is nothing more than an internet meme. How anyone can say Hopkins won that fight after actually watching the thing is unfathomable to me.

    losing at age 50 is hardly a real loss. its a moral victory just turning up against a proven killer.

    Calzaghe and Kovalev will haunt bhop forever; nights on which the white man put their will onto him for all the world to see. Powerless to stop them, he was outsmarted by one (no surprise, really) and walked down by the other. Both stark reminders of what he is and where he belongs.

    It was still a close fight, you have to admit that even as a desperate Brit.
