I love how Hopkins though Joe was going to be scared....Try that thug BS on him.....Guive it up Hopkins....Calzaghe ain't no Jermain Taylor he won't just beat you in a dull fight he will embaress you....and make you nothing more then a part of his highlight reel

Joe will probably beat 43 yr old BHOP, but i doubt it will be embarrasing. It will probably be the hardest fight of Joe's career. BHOP will make Joe look awkward, and will hit him with elbows and headbutts all night.Originally Posted by Daxx Kahn
all i can say is.....that was a whole lot of people that floyd sent home dissapointed. It was fun and all cheering for hatton but damn reality set in like a bitch!!!!
ooh yea bhop was kinda disrespected by joe cause he shook everyone else hand but not bhops. I would love to see them get it on, although i like bhop. After predicting kessler to beat joe, and obviously i was wrong. I told myself i ain't going against joe no more. he has gain my respect and he truly is a great champion.

Look at your original post. U make it sound like Joe would do it easy. BHOP is well over 40 for fucksake, to even be competitive at that age is ridiculous.Originally Posted by Daxx Kahn

I think Calzaghe beats Hopkins more easily than he beat Kessler. Yes, what Hopkins has done at the age of 43 is amazing, but that is irrelevant in regards to his competitiveness versus Calzaghe. After losing to Taylor twice, what has Hopkins done really? Beating Tarver, who has not looked impressive since beating RJJ, who had to lose a bunch of weight after filming the Rocky movie. Beating an aging Winky Wright, a blown-up Middleweight at best. Calzaghe's work-rate is impressive though people will point to B-Hop negating Winky's work-rate - but I'm not convinced that the weight didn't play a bigger role in that than B-Hop did. Both fighters are masters at adapting to their opponents, but I think Calzaghe will have power and speed on his side, and that makes for a big hill to climb for Hopkins.
By no means will it be an easy victory for Calzaghe, and though its surely not impossible I don't see how this incarnation of B-Hop will win.
Haha gotta love the Nard, even at 42 he still looks fucking awesome and that was some great pantomime right there.
By the way was this vid before or after his race comments?
I really would try to shake bhops hand, it wouldn't matter who the next guy was that i was gonna shake hands with. It was a pleasent time and trash talking would of been gone from my mind set. If bhop wouldn't shake my hand then i'd just let it go and not let it ruin the day. I'm sure a guy like bhop would want to promote a fight but its just that a promotion act. If he gets in my face, then he'll get in my face. shake his hand or not his still gonna try to pull some kind of way to promote a fight so yea I'd just do my part and pretend his just the next guy to shake hands with. this case, i ain't promote no bullshyt.Originally Posted by Daxx Kahn
B Hop is going to end Calzaghes undefeated reign in spectacular fashion. Even a 43,he is one of the best conditioned fighters in the sort and will put on a boxing exhibition beating Calzaghe by UD at least 116-112 clearly. B Hop has fought the best, while Calzaghe hasn't faced anyone of hopkins' level, it's going to be a good fight, but b hops a whole nother animal. Who has Joe fought?? Omar Shieka, Peter Manfredo, Jeff Lacy,Sakio Bika.....ok Kessler, who has Kessler fought?, one real top level fighter in Markus Beyer. Hop will defeat him
I think Hopkins will make it tougher than I first thought. He did seem a little bigger than Joe, but if Joe fights a smart fight behind the jab, he should win comfortably but probably without hurting B-hop much.
looked like joe was a bit imtimatated there to me.................................. i'd say joe would win the fight as b-hop is past it but you never know
Joe didn't look intimidated to me...In fact he looked as though he did not take Hopkins serious at allOriginally Posted by nuclear bull

he looked a bit worried to me its in his eyes, you cant see it on her but if you watched it on tele its a bit like when the school bully is used to beating up everyone then the new kid stands up to him and he doesnt know whats goner happen next........ not saying joes a bully just the look on his face
but i still think at this stage joe would be a old hopkins
