    No-ones ever come close to stopping Hopkins yet you think Joe's pitter patter shots were going to do so. Puh-lease.:rofl

    that's exactly my point, only after faking the low blows and taking a 5 min break.

    The first was legit, he took a break, not the full five though. The second was not low & Cortez made them fight on. Whats the issue?

    The issue is that people keep trying to make Calzaghe out to be a great, or at least a guy worthy of a #2P4P ranking, and he just is not.

    the issue is, without the break, calzaghe would have stopped hopkins.

    No he wouldn't. We may have seen a bit more holding but he wouldn't have stopped Hopkins, not a chance. Hopkins wasn't wobbled once in that fight.

    And JMM would be moving up while Cotto isn't.

    JC is #2, Cotto should be #3.
