The knock on Bernard Hopkins

I think Bernard is great. He's a defensive wizard, practically impossible to hit cleanly. He has Phd in boxing science, the man truly is a marvel.

But some of his greatest wins I simply do not rate that highly (DLH and Winky are two that immediately spring to mind).

That's exactly why Calzaghe struggled to land punches well on him

I knew he'd be too skilled and crafty fot Pavlik...who imo is limited in skills!
