I guess time will tell if Joe is fading and weather Hopkins really is that good still.
My opinion is Hopkins is the worst possible match up for Calzaghe and he did not appreciate what the old dog brought to the table.
i will add thins, Calzaghe has sublime footwork and Hopkins shut him down pretty well, what is he going to do with a crude plodder who has never fought at smw?

Of course he was tired every fighter is tired after 12rds.
At 36yo to be throwing a 1,000x punches against a great fighter like Mikkel Kessler is a great achivement. The fittest 36yo in boxing.
NOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO!!!!! Im not having it go away im cupping my ears with my hands so i can't hear you;DQuote:

What makes him better his best win is over a 38 year old Holmes who had not fought for 2 years and had like 14 days to get ready.

Yeah Tyson. Did he ever get up after being put down to win a fight? No. If he did get up he soon got finished off. Calzaghes got up a few times to come back and win!Quote:

You have got to be kidding me watch Mike Tyson vs Tony Tucker and watch the uppercut that lifted Mike Tyson off his feet that would of KO'd most Heavyweight's especially because it was very early in the fight and no fighter is properly warmed up at that point. Or watch Mike Tyson vs Razor Ruddock 2 Mike Tyson took monster shots from Ruddock and Tyson wasn't even fazed or watch Evander Holyfield vs Mike Tyson 1 the 10th round when Mike Tyson took one of the best counter right hands from Holyfield and didn't go down in no way shape or form did Tyson have a weak chin and when he lost it was due to a throughout beating in all of his losses i would understand if you said Mike Tyson lacked a warrior heart or was mentally fragile but a weak chin ? no way in hell.Quote:

Lets see if Floyd is still unbeaten or even fighting top level ring belt holders when hes 36, I very much doubt it;D;)
Joe: Eubanks, Lacy, Kessler, Hopkins
Mayweather: Corrales, Castillo, Judah, Hatton, De La Hoya
Bit of a difference when you compare the competition if you ask me...
