Bernard Hopkins vs Joe Calzaghe I and result of a hypothetical rematch

[erics44]

Not bitter at all, bro. But i HAVE seen more meaningful combinations thrown by middle-aged women fighting over a Kmart "blue-light special".

That sounds bitter

[Dia bando]

How many time's, do I have to tell you lot point
1 Undisputed that mean's, the main man doe's it not,
point 2 Undefeated that mean's you have NEVER lost.?
3rd point World Champion, That's Joe Calzagehe by
the way B Hopp RJJ are none of the above.

As Alan Partridge would say 'Bunch of bitter bastards'. The Hopkins crew has never gotten over this loss. And again as Alan would say 'It's just sad'. A wise man is old Alan.

This discussion would have more meaning to it had Robin 'The Grim Reaper' Reid not already beaten Calzaghe

The "Hopkins crew"? Oh no, bro.... don't lump me in with that bunch. Not a Hopkins fan by any stretch of the imagination (and not just 'cause he beat Tito).

I admire Hopkins' longevity in the sport, and everything he's accomplished. But by no means am I a Hopkins fan. I'm just commenting on the "flurry" by Calzaghe on Manfredo. You gotta admit..... there's a lot of slapping going on in there.

Holy shit you are annoying. I don't know if it's your lack of boxing knowledge, your lack of brain usage or maybe your terrible spelling. Maybe it's the fact that you have Calzagehe's dick so far inside ur mouth that it's poking your brain and blocking any rational thinking from occurring. Most boxing fans know Joe was a fraud. Sure he was good but he almost got stopped by a shot Roy Jones and Hopkins beat him and got robbed. Prime Jones or Hopkins would of slaughtered him. He's undefeated? Since when does that mean shit? He had crappy competition and his biggest win was against Hopkins which once again was controversial and IMO he clearly lost by 2 rounds based on effective punching, like VD has stated slaps are not legal punches. But why am I explaining myself to a moron who has said before that "wales are gods chosen people" .. Idk

Go back to sleep, take yes my spelling my be bad, but a fact is a fact
and he did beat Hopshit in your back yard, bitter taste my boy.

[Dia bando]

It seem's you would like to rewrite, the record book's my Boy,
Joe did beat two of your best, I can hear you grinding your teeth,
all the way back hear in God's country, do you feel you may have to

Have some let's be friend's

[TitoFan]

Just a thought, but are you aware that you don't have to hit "ENTER" in the middle of every line?
Just saying....

It was a poor stoppage. A crap fight too, I was against it from the start.

[FinitoElDinamita]

I forget the score but I had Calzaghe clearly winning. I dont why some fans make it out to be some contoversial decision but I dont think it was at all. Hopkins has nobody to blame but himself for giving up the early rounds similiar to what happened in the first taylor fight.



Calzaghe's style is all wrong for Nard and same thing would happen in a rematch.

Hopkins was the one that started better , it was calzaghe that took 4-5 rounds to get into the fight

scored it 114-113 hopkins

You are right. My memories of this fight was hazy so I just got done watching it again and it was hops who started early with Calzaghe coming on in the mid rounds.

But ultimately, it was hops's lack of punch output that cost him the fight which isnt the first time that's happened to him.

...and it was Calzaghe's 43rd fight!! LMAO..honestly I rest my case, I really do. The fuck are you doing fighting Manfredo in your 43rd fight? 3 fights away from retirement..

The measure for me isn't how many casual fans thought Calzaghe won..it's easy to speak to the majority of Brits who will automatically have a bias towards a fellow Brit so your results are automatically skewed.

I'm talking if any of you are close to the boxing community. I promise you, the week after that fight I didn't hear one person say they thought that Calzaghe won that fight. From amateur boxers in Repton..from trainers to pro boxers. Nobody. They were all Brit's too. THAT to me is a much better and neutral measure of what happened in the fight.

The whole "well, 70% of the public thought he won" is a mute point anyway. He got the "W" JUST..and it was his greatest victory..a split decision over a 40-something Bhop. I rest my case..He sucks balls.
