Hopkins!

Hopkins!
At his age, Hopkins can't really fight for 3 minutes of every round anymore, so I think Calzaghe's activity level will bother him.
Hopkins is a master at making his opponents look bad and taking away their best weapons, but Calzaghe is such an unorthodox fighter that I think it's tougher to gameplan for him than other opponents.
So I'm picking Calzaghe by a close decision in an ugly sloppy fight. But it's awfully hard to go against Hopkins, the betting odds are much more in favor of Calzaghe than they should be. Hopkins is still a very tough guy to beat.
Hopkins!!
He must break Joe's constant rythem AND do not rely on the Pot shot so much early.He has to bring the Reality to Calzaghe very early on Physically and mentally.

I guess you clicked the wrong button coz your name was listed under Calzaghe... So actually the poll should say 19 to 15 in favor of Calzaghe...

Can only see a Joe decision here....and i think it will have to be convincing in the States so i think it will be. I dont think BHOP will last the pace that Joe will set....so i think he may have to stop him which i just cannot see happening. Joe UD.
Joe said he slipped. My ass. Joe didn't hurt Bernard at all. He pitter pattered like a kitten to get the points. I wish that he would stake a Pavlik fight or a Taylor fight.Joe looking at all the nursing homes I guess.He said Pavlik should press for a Calzaghe after he beats Lockett. Anyway I found Calzaghe's technique.

I agree with Judge Byrd's scorecard... BHop won by 1 point but it's a close fight... It could go either way... No complaints here...
