    yeah he beat some top guys towards the end of it. lacy, kessler, hopkins. hopkins regardless of his age some people will say the hopkins of today is better than the hopkins of old. plus he fought him on his first trip up 2 LHW where hopkins was the ring champ. i no alot of people hate on him,but joe came up the hard way, not much tv exposure. hes not like alot of so called stars today where there built and hyped up from day one. the mans paid his dues.

    Disappointed he never took on Chad Dawson or a couple other high profile Americans.

    His record is a great one, but he had the potential to go even further, beat Joe Luis' record and cement himself as a legend in the sport.

    He's basically obviously calculated the risk reward factor and opted to 'take the money' as many a millionaire contestent has said to Chris Tarrent.

    I wanted him to take the risk and play for the million pound question though
