Calzaghe and Hopkins go at it about who's got the better resume

[Bomp]

Ok here are the examples.

Robin Reid shortly before Calzaghe fight was outboxed by a 40+ Thulani Malinga.

Richie Woodhall shortly before Calzaghe fight was dropped 3 times by Markus Beyer.

Charles Brewer shortly before Calzaghe was stopped in 3 by Antwun Echols.

Chris Eubank was a late replacement and only had a very short time to lose the weight and get in fighting shape, roughly about 1 week wasn't it ??

Did you actually read my fucking post you said the fighters were coming off from BAD defeats, I address those losses (I'll give you Brewer). And you come back with this.

The Woodhall fight is a solid example of how boxrec isn't the be all and all on how to judge someone's career, Woodhall fought back to make it damn close and finished the stronger, it was a fight crying out for a rematch, but as happens so often, Beyer took his belt to Germany and buried it in his grandma's backyard.

Hopkins' and Calzaghe's careers are actually very similar, they both dominated mediocre divisions before finally getting the opponents to test them late on.
Hopkins' may have the more famous names on his resume, but can you really say with a straight face that the likes of de la Hoya and Trinidad posed more of a threat to a top middleweight than the likes of Reid, Woodhall, Eubank, Michell did for a top SM?
