porkypara's If Calzaghe & Hopkins were to fight in the future who'd win poll?

[Wacko3205]

I really thought that this deserved a poll & with pork's permission...here it goes...vote away.

I say that Hopkins will, chin, abilities, & guile would win the day over Joe's speed. Hopkins is rough as hell when in the trenches.

Calzaghe on points in a horrible fight.

Calzaghe with an easy points win.

It wouldn't be easy Hopkins would rough him up.

Calzaghe by easy KO.

We know Calzaghe fights well away from Britain - two visits, two KO victories without losing a single round.

We know Hopkins has struggled away from America - two visits, one PTS win and a draw after getting off the floor a couple of times.

So, clearly if the fight was in Britain Calzaghe would have the edge, and likewise in America as he's a proven good traveller.

Calzaghe by easy KO are you kidding me ?? Calzaghe hasn't KO anyone since 1997 before he was even champion your talking nonsense the fight with Segundo Mercado was a green Hopkins it was nothing to do with the fight being outside the USA and in the rematch he easily beat Mercado by 7th round TKO and the only other fight he had outside USA was in his 19th pro fight and when has Calzaghe been good traveller ?? beating Veit who he already stopped in 1 round ?? or beating the tomato can Will McIntyre ?? don't make me laugh.

HERE'S WHAT EVERYONE SAID ON THE OTHER THREAD THAT'S BEEN GIVEN THE BOOT FOR THE POLL:

joe has a tendency to get drawm into a brawl, rough-house him, and he seems to lose focus and abandon his gameplan.. i would describe it, as going "macho"..

if anyone could to do this, its hopkins..

popkins might be old, but he is still going strong. his fight agaisnt winky showed, that looking good wasnt the plan, winning was.. he simply roughed winky up..

as mentioned, sadly hopkins is old, and seemingly too old, and whether or not he still is good, he perhaps isnt quite was he was, and therefore i have to give a slight edge to joe..

Hopkins does know how to negate speed,BUT Jc has speed,activity and angles AND he is a very clever fighter himself. I'd fancy JC via UD.

Yea your right Fenster your comment was well thought out knowledgable post

[headson]

i chose b-hop on hard pints cause the jab clich and the headbutt

[Fenster]

Ice, you seriously need to get a sense of humour, son. It's called a joke. A wind-up.

Here you go ...Ive always thought Calzaghe would beat Hopkins no-problem. But changed my mind recently. Hopkins has the type of ugly-spoiling style that seems to give Calzaghe problems. And although I still think Calzaghe would win, it would be pretty close.

Is that OK for you? You want to rip that apart?
