    matchup out there right now?

    Everyone loves a pickem fight and after reading the Floyd and Williams post i think a lot of people might think its that matchup, a few weeks ago i would have chosen Pavlik Miranda but now i would say Calzaghe Hopkins i could not pick a winner in that one.

    Pac vs Guzman.

    Taylor vs Pavlick.

    Toney vs a drug test.

    I can't see 42 year old Hopkins being able to compete considering Calzaghes work rate, no matter how crafty Hopkins may be.

    Calzaghe is getting old too and i would not bet against hopkins and that is also coming from a big calzaghe fan who (probably like yourself) normally goes and watches all his fights live.

    Still, case in point, unless Calzaghe starts to decline, he's a stylistic nightmare for the 42 year hold Hopkins. Even if he declines significantly, I still feel he wins wide because of the style.

    Calzaghe-Kessler is pretty close to 50/50 in my book.
    Mosley-Cotto is the same.

    No. Because a prime Hopkins did not have to fight at a conservative pace to stay in the fight, he could also fire a fantastic overhand right(Calzaghe's kryptonite) at will.

    Prime Calzaghe-Hopkins is a good fight, lots of variables come into play.
