If you`re impressed with a fully blown middleweight beating a naturally smaller man then that`s up to you. It doesn`t impress me.
Trinidad DLH Johnson Joppy Wright Echols Those are just a few, he wasn't WBC/WBA/IBF/WBO undisputed middleweight champion for 5 years fighting nobodies, he fought the top fighters in his division and unified from scratch holding the IBF title first then WBC, WBA(winning the tournament) and WBO. He had all the titles and didn't stay in his hometown like a certain fighter in Wales fighting tomato cans and claiming his WBO title is above all.
So therefore you do not rate... HAGLER'S WINS OVER HEARNS AND DURAN. MONZON'S WINS OVER GRIFFITH AND NAPOLES. You are the silliest little fanny on this forum. :hi:
A poster called the Cobra made this quality point on another thread yesterday, I believe it was also in response to the moron known as Pugilist: Quote: Originally Posted by the cobra Totally, because like Calzaghe, Hopkins had another champion in his weight division "dominating" it at the same time and he never fought him, right? Hopkins beat everyone that mattered at the weight for 10 years, Calzaghe did not once fight the best man he could have, as well as a few others. And Calzaghe is greater than Hopkins because when their challenger met each other, you know like Echols TKO3 Brewer, Holmes TKO12 Woodhall, Eastman W12 Ashira, Echols W12 Salem... they proved themselves superior, right? Honestly, your the worst poster on this site. I myself add: It should also be noted that Hopkins held the 3 major belts (WBC/WBA/IBF) from 2001-2005 (FOUR years), and all 4 genuine world titles (WBC/WBA/IBF/WBO) from 2004-2005. Joe Calzaghe held the WBO (the least valued and least prestigious of the 4) on its own from 1997-2006... that's NINE YEARS. Yes, NINE. He held the WBO and IBF together for 7 months, then went back to just the WBO again, then added the WBC and WBA. He NEVER held all 4 at the one time, and never defended all 3 WBC/WBA/IBF, not once. Who was the more dominant in their division? Give me a ****ing break. :hi:
Forced him out of his gameplan??? Tito fights one way and one way only. Come foward and knock your opponent out. Plain and simple he did not get forced out of his gameplan.
