    That's cool man. I wish i could live in such a pristine and remote area and not the congested and smog infested Los Angeles, CA.

    Damn, there is a lot of smog here too in Reykjavík, you can see it in the sky on a clear day :-(

    Outside the city it is nice and there is a lot to see. More people should stop on their way to the UK

    In terms of skill, I would have to say Marquez.

    JMM

    Joe is one dimensional and wins fights with only workrate & speed

    I'll pick Calzaghe . . . for the reason that Joe has shown better performances and results against different opponents with different fighting styles.

    Take note . . . Joe is on the way to retirement and yet undefeated at this point.

    BUt technically it's JMM.

    i'd pic JMM in a head to head matchup, JMM is a more better at counterpunching than hopkins. The only problem hopkins had in that fight was lack of workrate. JMM has the stamina and the workrate for full 12 rounds

    IMO JMM is the better fighter. Calzaghe has a fantastic workrate but I've never been overly impressed with his boxing skills.

    On the contrary...JMM is one of the most talented counterpunchers and boxers i've ever seen...
