I can't say whether or not QUillin is a better fighter yet but I do agree that Jermaine was a beast! despite the controversy, he did stop Hopkins' winning streak and beat him again in a rematch. Anybody who fights neck and neck with an 06 Hopkins is pretty dam special in my eyes.

The Pavlik fight was fuckin wild and Jermaine could have easily been the one to score the KO.. Pavlik was about to go at one point and I dont think anybody hurt him as badly as Jermaine did..

I think we can agree that he was schooling Froch until his stamina gave in.. Froch sucks

Peter Quillin is more sound fundamentally but I dont know if he has that dog in him like Jermaine..

Oh btw, these Brit guys give me a chuckle when they say Macklin, MUrray, and Geale would give Jermaine a good fight. lol Those guys are B level fighters and a prime Jermaine wouldnt have had too much trouble with them.

Jermaine knocks Geale's sorry ass out easily.. Easy fight.

Macklin has B level written all over him and he doesn't have a single arsenal in his game that would trouble Jermaine..

Murray is pretty tough but he's nothing that Jermaine has never seen before..
I don't even pay Brit-fans the type of attention they are seeking... JT was killing Froch. If only he had run that 12th round- it would have been an easy win. At least take a knee and then get another point for tossing Froch, or hitting him in the nuts- something!

Anyways... it's all history now.

And, special note: Barker beating Geale is NO huge achievement. All of this talk reminds me of the Arturo Gatti hype when he fought DLH and even moreso when he fought Mayweather- only when he was totally disgraced and relegated to the B-Class fighter he truly was, then we recognized that pumping up cannon fodder still makes them cannon fodder!!!
