Re: porkypara's If Calzaghe & Hopkins were to fight in the future who'd win poll?
Well if we are talking at that time forgetting what they went on to do then Calzaghe over Eubank.

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?
Problem is i can't tell when your joking when im talking about boxing i don't like joking about theres time and place for it but im different to you but there you go.
Fair enough, Ice.
Going back to Hopkins-Mercado, you put Hopkins loss down to being green, right? It was his 5th fight after losing to Roy. Surely that means Roys win over an extra-green Hopkins aint up to much, right?
Jones had even less fights than Hopkins so they were both green thats why i would of loved to have seen a rematch.
I prefer the younger Hopkins who used to brawl he was very exciting fighter at one time hard to believe when you watch his fights now.
So what rates as the better win, IYO? A green Roy beating an extra-green Hopkins or a green Calzaghe beating a slightly past it, fully experienced former "world" champion that went on to fight two tremendous fights for the Cruiserweight "world" championship?
Well if we are talking at that time forgetting what they went on to do then Calzaghe over Eubank.
OK. But remember you consider an extra-green Hopkins as Roys 2nd best ever win. So in future when you're claiming Calzaghe's win over Eubank don't mean much - Eubank was "shot" - you'll take into consideration Calzaghe was "green," right? And in your opinion rates as a better win than Roy beating an extra-green Hopkins.
