Re: Do you think Hopkins-Calzaghe mandates a 24/7 show?

Style wise,its probably a snoozer
Its going to go one of two ways
Hopkins will keep him off with the jab and pick and poke,and move him to where he wants him
Or
Joe will swarm and just slap like mad to convince the judges with a superior work rate
A technically interesting fight,but then again so was Wright/Hopkins but it wasnt a big seller for re-runs
Could we please get some compelling new blood in to boxing rather then running these dinasoars out there
Im starting to become a Floyd fan,just because he isnt a million years old,and is good
Though as god is my witness I wanted Hatton to level him
Speaking of which Im hearing Ricky is looking for a new trainer,I think thats a great idea
well everyone thought that the way floyd fights his fight would hatton would be a snoozer where he would potshot and get out but because of hatton's pressure floyd had to fight. who knows with calzaghe's workrate bernard might actually have to fight his hardest. both hopkins and calzaghe have totally different style & neither have been dominated by any fighter so we won't be sure what fight we may actually get. with winky & bernard both having less pleasing styles everyone knew it would be a snoozer from opening bell.
"Very few people really understand what it means to be a fighter. I hate it when I hear someone say, 'That fighter doesn't have guts. I hate that, I don't care if you're a world champion six times over or a four-round fighter, to step inside that ring, you have to have guts" Oscar De La Hoya
