Calzaghe and Hopkins go at it about who's got the better resume
Funny stuff.
Personally, I think Hopkins has the much better resume...but Calzaghe didn't let down and fired back at him.
Check 'em out...
CALZAGHE: "YOU'RE GOING TO SEE ME TAME BIG-MOUTHED BERNARD HOPKINS!"
HOPKINS: "I'M GOING TO THROW PUNCHES IN BETWEEN HIS PUNCHES!"
Re: Calzaghe and Hopkins go at it about who's got the better resume
I think Calzaghe is more in his prime but Hopkins has the better resume. Calzaghe just started fighting big time competition...he has dominated them but he hasn't really pushed himself to be tested until recently, it started vs Jeff Lacy

I really like how Bhop explained how he is still able to fight at this level... How mileage comes from the abuse you take as a fighter... He has the genetics and lifestyle...
I like how he does not have this vision of himself being this superman but it is actually very realistic.
He said how he is not superfast but is not superslow. He is a fairly precise puncher and he puts just enough on them. I don't think he holds any falicies about his ability. I do think he is leary of Joe and well he should be... He's gonna have to throw alot of puches if he plans to throw in between Joes... ALOT.
I think this fight will be fun to watch and I think the boys are doing a good job selling it.
They've sold me!;D
I do love Joe but... C'mon... Who "great" has he fought... An aging Eubank? Stop it...
We have no trouble finding great fighters on Bernards resume.
Again though I pick Joe to take it but not by much... Split dec.
Re: Calzaghe and Hopkins go at it about who's got the better resume
Hopkins is so full of shet. He made his name on much smaller guys and gets wayyy too much credit for what he's done. He says he's fought better guys but the only 2 really good middleweights he's fought, both beat him.
Joe on the other hand has beaten evryone thrown at him and is clearly a much better fighter than bernard. Hopkins would be nothing without fighting dirty and without those wins over two welters.
Calzaghe easy UD

So you think Calzaghe has the better resume then? Tell me how Joe has made his name... Eubank thats it. Like I said before... I love Joe but lets not get it twisted... Hopkins has fought the better opposition.
Joe just has the uncanny ability to fight better with the opposition put in front of him. I call Joe to win but please don't be fooled by what you have seen Joe do to so many. Hopkins is NOT Jeff Lacy, Sakio Bika, Peter Manfredo or even a faded Eubank. He is one of the crftiest middleweights ever.
So Please, elaborate on Joe's stellar opposition that is better then the "welters" you speak of.:p
Re: Calzaghe and Hopkins go at it about who's got the better resume
Till you decide to hang up the gloves it's all about who you beat....not who you've beaten. All this tit for tat stuff between the two is funny.

Please read my above post and also elaborate on how Joe is a much better fighter then Bernard. Why... Joe's flurys? I'm confused. I think you are too. If you think Joe will find Bernard an "Easy" foe...

great vids cheers bro, cant wait for this fight, and ts my first big fight in vegas.
Re: Calzaghe and Hopkins go at it about who's got the better resume
forget names compare this
what fighter who turned up on that night has hopkins beat better than kessler...
don't compare a prime tito in terms of pound for pound what he was like at WW
The actual guy who turned up on the night to face hopkins, name one who posed a bigger threat, or who was more of a danger than kessler...

Point taken... I can't think of one that didn't beat Hopkins...
Re: Calzaghe and Hopkins go at it about who's got the better resume
I think this fight will eb about as excting as the sakio bika fight, but easier than the Kessler fight for Joe.

IMO the Bika fight was harder then the Kessler fight!
Re: Calzaghe and Hopkins go at it about who's got the better resume
Calzaghe has beaten every fighter put in front of him , but to be fair apart from maybe 2 , my mother could have beaten them all.
Hopkins resume is beyond compare to JOKE CALZAGHE'S the WBO joke champion.
Mr i couldnt get the other champs to sign for a fight for 10 years , because of the cotton wool that Warren has wrapped around me .
So hey i ll change all that by waiting till Bernard Hopkins is 43 , that will make me an all time GREAT if i beat him !!!! ;D;D;D;D;D
