It does matter Wright is probably a HOF fighter based on what he did at 154. But at 170, he's not an elite, A-class fighter. Kessler, on the other hand, is an A-class elite at 168 and certainly better than Wright around the weight. Forget the name value and look at the performance and ability of each fighter. From that, it's clear that Calzaghe's win over Kessler is better than Hopkins' win over Wright.
Hopkins as an option :rofl My biggest wins are two blown up welters at ****ing middleweight! Complimented by victory over a a jnr middleweight at the division the old **** started at in light heavyweight Followed up by victory over a peanut head supposed light heavyweight champion who had already lost 3 times to Eric ****ing Harding Glen 'the loss *****' Johnson and a shot weight drained old RJJ ! Sandwiched in between that was a thrilling triology with the raging Robert Allen a mediocre victory over lazy Howard Eastman and massive title defences against morrade hakkar and um Carl Daniels On top of that the old ******* lost twice to the only really top notch fighter he fought at middlweight in Jermain Taylor Hopkins fans that rag on Joe Calzaghes record really need to take a reality check :nut the man used to call out junior ****ing middleweights rather than look at the division he was in or the one above something pointed out by the legendary Larry Merchant 1. PBF 2. Manny Pac 3. Joe Calzaghe(Kessler better than any fighter on BHOPs record Hopkins doesn't make the top 5...i need to review my list anyway hes probably around 7 like i had the old wanker before
Actually Mayweather is still my #2 p4p. The win against Hatton doesn't do a damn thing for him to improve it.
1. Mayweather 2. Pacquaio 3. Calzaghe 4. Hopkins Calzaghe has jumped Hopkins since he beat Kessler, but theres no way he can be above pac
I really can not understand why so many guys are picking Pacquiao:huh :huh :huh I mean if that's your opinion then sure no problem. But why? What has he done more and better then Cotto, Hopkins, Calzaghe, Winky? Isn't he kind of one-dimensional compared to for example the whole arsenal of punches that Hopkins has? Peace
i believe they voted pacquiao based on resume and quality of opposition. and besides pacquiao will fight marquez next and a win will greatly boost his standing.
