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

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.?

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 ?
