ha, so the facts are that (1) JC fought Manfredo in his 43rd fight and (2) people tend to be biast towards fighters from their own country - and these facts mean that Hopkins beat Calzaghe and Calzaghe is rubbish?

just watch the 6th and 10th
calzaghe won the 6th, hopkins spent most of his time walking forward head down and then holding, calzaghe landed all the punches
the 10th is close, calzaghe still landed more, hopkins spent a lot of the round rolling around the floor, i think to award it to hopkins is harsh but i can accept it
Re: Bernard Hopkins vs Joe Calzaghe I and result of a hypothetical rematch
What this fight,come's down too are you a Calzaghe fan or a Hopkins fan, in this fight the judge's made
Calzaghe the winner.?Not unlike the Hagler v SRL, fight which you have to say people still bitch about
we all have a opinion,it's the judge's that count.? So when your fighter get's beat take it on the chin this
include's myself.;)

I have no problem with Calzaghe winning.
It was a close fight with tough rounds to score majority of the fight.

I rewatched the 6th round and it was a close one but Hopkins was able to land the cleaner shots again.
I recall him landing some good body shots early, good left hook off the ropes, nice right hand leads to body and head and a few solid jabs.
Joe was able to land a good straight left early in the round and the occassional jab throughout the round but his punches for the most part were ineffective or missing.
The 10th round was a clearish round for Hopkins.
You can't take the round away from Hopkins because he exaggerated a low blow. If you score the round based on the scoring criteria, you and most should score that round for Bhop.
After Hopkins got his rest, he was able to pop Joe with good shots the rest of the round.

I have seen the fight no end of time's, to be honest Hopkins could have lost point's in a few round's
lot's of holding and hitting blind side of the ref, using his head,it's the way he fight's.
I no you are a fan of his but he doe's fight and win ugly, on this occasion he lost, I will give you that he is one hard SOB to beat.? he is a Marmite fighter to people love him or hate him.?;D

Hopkins doesn't always rely on dirty tactics, like his two fights against Pascal, Pavlik, Tarver, etc.
Hopkins did nothing in the Calzaghe fight that was worth a point deduction. There was clinches and a few headbutts but nothing too excessive.
Hopkins lost the fight yes, but he was not beaten decisively no matter which way you Calzaghe fans try to twist it.
Calzaghe is allowed to be in close fights right ? :)

Re: Bernard Hopkins vs Joe Calzaghe I and result of a hypothetical rematch
I have to say that our opinions of the fight are as valuable as the judges, mainly because judges aren't really any more qualified to judge a fight than we are. Yes, the judges are responsible for the result, but they really aren't all that good a lot of the time. Calzaghe was a good fighter, but not a great one. He fought subpar fighters for most of his career except the last part of it. He did not have a good chin, as evidenced by his being knocked down by a washed-up Roy Jones Jr. and Bernard Hopkins (who doesn't usually knock anyone down). He did rebound very nicely against Hopkins, but a lot of his punches were half-ass. Bernard landed the better shots all night, which is why I gave him the win.
