    But then again who was there really worth avoiding ? he should of moved up years ago because he did say he did have a hard time making weight.

    But as for the fighters he could of fought ?

    Markus Beyer = Defeated Richie Woodhall flooring him 3 times, he had the WBC version of the title, Joe Calzaghe fights the loser Richie Woodhall, instead of Markus Beyer.

    Glen Johnson = After he beat Eric Harding and Clinton Woods, would of been a good time to face him. Or when he beat Roy Jones Jr and Antonio Tarver.

    Sven Ottke = I know people say well Sven Ottke wouldn't fight outside of Germany, but if Joe Calzaghe really was that worried about not getting fights, he should of just gone to Germany and beat Sven Ottke. And he would of beaten him whether it was in Germany or on the moon.

    Dariusz Michalczweski = A great fight at Light Heavyweight, this could of happened at any time.

    Anthony Mundine = I think this fight could of happened at some point, not really sure when though but surely it could of been made ?

    Roy Jones Jr = At Light Heavyweight.

    Antonio Tarver = At Light Heavyweight.

    Eric Harding = After he had a good showing against Roy Jones Jr.

    Fabrice Tiozzo = After he beat Silvio Branco or Dariusz Michalczweski.

    Bruno Girard = After he beat Byron Mitchell or Lou Del Valle.

    Im not saying he avoided any of these fighters, but he did miss out on some good fights which he could of made happen. If he would of took more risks.

    Good posts, ICE, but only Jones or Michalczweski would've enhanced his resume and they were not in his weight division.

    I think a win over Tarver and Johnson, would of been good for his record aswell. Especially as i said after Johnson beat Jones, Tarver, or after Tarver beat Jones or revenged his loss to Johnson. I just think personally he should of moved up, i remember for quite a few years he said he struggled making weight. And he was going to move up but it never happened until it was too late, he might of lost but i think he would of still got more respect, but thats just my opinion.

    The bigger fights were at Light Heavy I agree. By the same Token B-Hop should've moved up from Middle for the same reason, he could clearly been comfortable at 175

    I totally agree. And although this thread has nothing to do with Hopkins, we really don't need an irrational hate thread for Hopkins as well now do we?

    Great points of both sides though.
