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

[Gandalf]

Yes, again as shocking as it may sound - some people may not agree with your narrow, blinkered way of thinking.

I think if Calzaghe was a natural 154lb fighter and Hopkins wasn't so fucking lazy in that fight he would have pulled out the win. But he didn't, boo hoo

Hopkins didn't have size on his side like he had in his precious big fights and he sure as fuck didn't have youth or workrate. He was a world class spoiler in that fight though and that's what made it so close... Its up to a judge whether they favour spoilibg tactics or not (or whether, like you they simply just dislike brits).

The diving and play acting he did whilst calzaghe arse raped him is proof enough that the pace was just too much for the old man. Oh well, nevermind... Hopkins has done enough since to redeem the loss, I doubt he worries too much about it - you on the on the other hand still seem pathetically butt hurt by it, grow a pair.

Seriously man, I don't think they came any more stupider than you. And believe me that's saying a lot when you got eric's dumb ass posting on the same thread. But I doubt even he would embarrass himself and call Hopkins lazy. It doesn't even matter in what moronic way you meant it, Hopkins and the word lazy don't go together. Unless you gonna tell me you know guys in there mid 40's who are in better shape than most 20 year olds and can compete with boxings elite than you can't call Hopkins lazy. I don't doubt you know a bunch 40 year old men. But I call bullshit if you gonna claim they can compete with boxings elite.

And it doesn't matter what Calzaghe and Hopkins did and didn't do to win and lose there fight. Bottom line is it was a close fight that left a lot of unfinished business which Calzaghe refused to clear up cuz he knew in his heart that he got a gift win. I told you about a million times before. Facts don't fucking lie. Which is why I only deal in facts. You should to. But no. You refuse to accept them? Why? Does your lust for Calzaghe burn that intensively? Do you even know what a fact actually means? Come on. Tell me.

Thing is youre still behind on the score cards in this one big man

You might be a bit more "in the running" if you didnt keep saying how you only deal with the facts and then say how hurt Calzaghe was through out the fight - which ever way you think the fight went neither man was visibly hurt at any time

Oh you're right. What was I thinking? Calzaghe wasn't hurt when he went down. He was just tying his shoes. And at the end of the 6th round where he staggered backwards after taking a clean shot he wasn't really hurt. He was just working on his 2 step.

You really thought he was hurt at the end of the 6th? Kind of reaching a bit there. Off balance and caught sure, but hurt? Don't be silly.

The knock down was what it was though. 10-8, no questions asked.
