    Calzaghe gets better the longer he is retired but the fight was close and hopkins was not getting the decision after the white boy comment.

    Cant knock JC boxing skills. He is and has been a problem for many..

    Joe started badly with the knock down and negative tactics from B Hop. Joe was way behind and just punched his heart out and B Hop could not live with it. the dirty acting from Hopkins put me off him at that time.
    Do not let success go to your head and do not let failure get to your heart.

    Joe was too active n Hop was very passive. I had it a draw as I thought Joe worked well n Hop spoiled the second half, while I never thought Joe hurt Hop n Hop won the first half on precision punching, good defense n the knockdown. I also think that prime vs prime Hop DESTROYS Joe. Not even a close fight with the Hop who could fight unbelievably hard for 12 rounds.
