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

[redbaron]

Gandalf: How in the hell do you have Calzaghe winning clearly? Hopkins knocked him down and clearly landed the better punches.

ha

IMO he didnt win clearly but he clearly won

In this fight Hopkins, got the knock down he did land may be 4or 5 punches, and that's being kind
in round 10 he was fucked,Calzaghe was getting to him and did he not like it.
He get's a tap in the bollocks, and roll's around the floor like a twat that he is.
As all the record book's will tell Calzaghe, won the fight that's good enough for me no if or but's, you can talk till the cow's come home Calzaghe beat Hopkins

That's not what I saw. I saw Hopkins kicking Calzaghe's ass for the majority of the fight and winning 115-112, 7 rounds to 5. And those record books contain a decision made by judges who aren't any more qualified to judge a fight than you or me. Hell, I could become a judge right now if I wanted too.

Explain : 140+ clinches off Hopkins
: 40 + leading and landing with the head.

Without a point deduction please explain how you get away with this and win a fight. If Calzaghe never had the flash knockdown in round 1. It would of been a clear shut out win.

Round 10, proved it all. Hopkins couldn't deal with Calzaghe, 5 minutes recovery time for a punch that wasn't even below the belt. But as most of you say he's a 'slapper'. A slap in the b*lls. Takes 5 minutes to recover for a so called warrior.

Calzaghe lost 4 rounds in my opinion, and in many's. Unless your day job was a judge for the WBC, WBO, IBF, WBA or any organisation I might listen to your unvalid trivial post. Until then ....

Don't even get me started with Joe Calslappy. All he did was use slaps to hit Hopkins. Anyone calling those punches doesn't understand boxing. Hopkins knocked Calzaghe on his ass in round 1 and continued to hit him with significant punches throughout. I had Hopkins easily winning 7 rounds. As far your faith in judges is concerned, it is misplaced. What about the judges who scored the Lara-Williams fight or Briggs-Foreman? Do you trust them to make a good decision? Some judges are consistently good, but others are bad. The judges in the Calzaghe fight fall on the bad side. I could do a better job than many judges.
