absolute ****ing bull****. hopkins gets more criticism than praise for the DLH fight. just how long have you been reading these boards for?
that's more to do with name value than the actual fight itself. if calzaghe was to beat up on mayweather he'd get more praise for that from the mainstream media than the kessler victory but the real boxing fans would know which win meant more.
Yeah my point is historically its a name on the resume. Legacy wise it looks good whether the guy was blown up or not.
