    David Haye

    Acts like he is the second coming of Lennox Lewis and then ducks David Tua and James Toney

    Agreed, for once. You might be gay, but you do have some boxing knowledge, for a Poofy boy. Joe has given us the pleasure of watching Bernard Hopkins' face during a loss at the scorecards. I do so enjoy hearing him ***** and cry at the post fight Press Conferences.

    Joe Calzaghe.

    He has things going in his favour to be sure - but his best wins weren't against ATG's or anything like some would have you believe.

    Not a fan of his slapping style of fighting but he can use his work-rate and ability to slowly adapt very effectively. A clever fighter, but hasn't (and probably won't - though I'm hoping to be proved wrong) stepped up to a career defining challenge.

    The Haye hype train has been relatively quite of late. Expect it to pick up closer to November.

    Guys, Joe Calzaghe is not overrated, the guy just keeps defending his titles. I chose Ricky Hatton, because to me it looks like he needs to be helped in order to win, home field advantage, a ref that lets him fight the style he needs to win. Paulie is going to take him to school, mark my word.

    After watching Pac JMM 2 at a reasonable hour, that fight is closer than Calzaghe Hopkins.

    I actually rescored the 2nd fight to JMM by 2 points. Pac was outboxed in large parts of the fight but the KD again damages JMM in the judges eyes.

    He's fought in the states with American refs a fair few times.

    In all honesty, even though I'm a big fan, the honor goes to Judah.
