    How is Bernard second? I love the Nard but he lost to Calzaghe when Joe moved up in weight to fight him so there is no grounds for putting B Hop above Joe now. If you think B Hop deserved to win the fight against Joe then you'll have to put Juan Manuel Marquez as p4p number 1 for beating Manny in the eyes of most.

    My top 5

    1. Pacquaio
    2. Calzaghe
    3. Marquez
    4. Hopkins
    5. Vazquez
    Juan Manuel Marquez won in the eyes of most? Says who? Definitely on here that wasn't the case here or with the media. Pacquaio won that fight, and Hopkins won against Calzaghe. I think agree though that Marquez should be higher then Hopkins because of the simple fact he is better then Bernard... well more effective than Bernard.
    Well I don't want to split hairs they were both close fights although if you create a poll I'm sure you'll find more people felt Marquez beat Manny than Bhop beat Calzaghe.


    Anyway ultimately I don't care either way. This is a prime example of why you are such a douchebag though, you try and definitely claim that your opinion i.e Pacquaio beat Marquez, Spinks beat Taylor 'emphatically', Hopkins beat Calzaghe etc is correct and that everyone else is wrong.

    In a close fight the scoring is subjective and sometimes there is no clear winner, it just depends on what the judges like best.

    Your narrow mindedness coupled with your smarmy smartass tone makes you one of the more annoying posters here on Saddos

    Taeth i have to disagree with you here majority of websites and ringside viewers, had JMM winning the 2nd fight. It was close enough that it could of gone either way, but i also thought JMM won by 1 point just like i thought he won by 1 point in the first fight.

    lol I love your obsessional nature and love of stats ICB

    To be fair though Taeth watches over 100 fights a week so his opinion carries more weight than all the others
