    now what do you mean by that :-(

    do you mean that no one rated them in america? is america the only country in the world? do you think calzaghe and DM might have been rated somewhere else in the world just not in your ignorant, brain-washed, narrow minded country? :deal

    So now champions like Hopkins should scour the world looking for mediocre fighters with belts from unrecognized sanctioning bodies and fight them because they might be more widely known to the boxing public in 10 years time? On the other hand its ok for a **** head like slappy to sit on garbage belt for 10 years making optional defenses against cripples and retiring with one or two quality wins in an entire career? You morons are biased trolls that bump your own shitty threads incessantly. If it wasn't for you, bailey and silencer bumping these garbage threads they wouldn't go past one page. The entire world knows that Calzaghe has a garbage resume. End Thread.

    No they missed out on the most decisive losses of their careers. Young Calzaghe would have gotten Hopkins out of there within 5 rounds (Hopkins probably would have preferred that to the beating he had to take from post-prime Calzaghe over a full 12). Dariusz primarily made his money as a boxer, rather than as a firefighter/cop/garbage man/civil servant, so he clearly would have been far too great a risk for Roy.

    I guess you could say they missed out on their defining fights, since these elite-level Europeans would have defined Hopkins and Jones as the overrated losers they actually are. Neither however missed out on a defining win or biggest victory since neither had a chance.
