    Don't forget Hopkins was quicker and sharper against Pavlik

    Was he though ? It's nice to be able to make that excuse but the truth is this.

    #1 Pavlik isn't as good as people thought he was, if he was anywhere near that good he would have beaten any version of a 43 year old hopkins.
    #2 Hopkins was the same Hopkins that fought JC and is still old and past it.

    All the hopkins win over pavlik should do is change peoples view on pavlik.

    The Calzaghe of last night would lose to Hopkins and that's why the rematch will neevr happen.

    Neither Calzaghe against Jones, nor Hopkins against Pavlik, were likely any better than in their fight against each other.

    They just looked better for not being in with an opponent who was able to negate much of what they do best.

    No one DOMINATES Hopkins. Would the Joe of last night beat Hopkins, who know?

    Either one could win a rematch, it's ridiculous to say one would dominate just becuase of how they looked in their most recent performance against fighters that are now far less than they are.
