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

[AdamGB]

It was an extremely close fight, and quite a shit one imo. I don't like Calzaghes as a fighter, the fact that Hopkins simply couldn't fight at his pace forced him to spoil endlessly and when I went to rewatch it a while back I just couldn't be bothered after a while. I don't think there's really even all that much to look for, neither guy was doing anything especially effective it just depends which style you find more aesthetically pleasing in the first place.

Not really, this one was down to who landed vastly more punches

Thank you. Might be the smartest thing you ever said. It does indeed come down to who landed more punches. Punches. Not slaps. It's pathetic how so many of y'all claim to know the sport of boxing but fail to realize that Calzaghe's open hand slaps are not legal, scoring blows.

Not to upset you too much but do you really find it confusing that more people support the opinion of the professional judges and referees who have officiated calzaghes years of fights when it comes to scoring blows over the opinion of a basement dwelling internet tough guy with a chip on his shoulder over any fighter from Europe?

You don't even understand the difference between a fact and an opinion... If you can't get simple things right then no wonder nobody listens to you.

You mindless fucking sheep. It doesn't matter who allows and accepts what. The rules are there in plain English and other languages for that matter. They do not fucking change. Slapping with an open hand is not allowed. That's a fact. It's not an opinion, stupid

I see you got a little picture of yourself. Got your little gloves on. Working the bag making it seem like you a fighter. Maybe went to a gym or two. All that trouble and you telling me your moronic ass still doesn't know boxings basic rules? Doesn't surprise me one bit. I swear if you weren't so much fun to laugh at you truly would be useless

Excellent powers of deduction sherlock, you noticed my 'little' picture of my 'little' () gloves and came to the conclusion that I might have visited a gym at some point (like the one I AM STOOD IN?).

'maybe'... Theres no maybe you moron... You've seen the little picture of me stood in a gym but you're still struggling to say with any certainty if I've been to a gym or not? What an idiot.

Next you'll be saying my name is 'maybe' Adam?!?!

I like your way of thinking though. Blindly agree with Violet Denise and you're not a mindless sheep... But disagree with him and you are.

As you may have suspected from my picture using you considerable mind - I have had enough fights and supported enough fighters from my gym to know a thing or two about dealing with officials. Its a bitter pill for you to swallow but if 100s of refs and judges have frequently and consistantly judged his punches as acceptable you may want to let it go. Mayweather (bending below the waist), Hopkins (his head), Jones (using his arm as a wedge) etc all get away with what they can... Why not calzaghe? That's what goes on in the ring... We will never hear you whinge about that though.

You're free to draw what ever conclusions from my 'little picture' you want? I'm a fighter? I'm not? What do I care, I know how I've fought... A random kid with a keyboard changes nothing

Picture is there so people can see who I am, hence I use my real name and not some embarassing, gay made up 12 year old thug name.

We'll never see a picture of you because you think we'd know you're not the hard man you want us to think. But we don't even need a picture to see that.
