Taking nothing from Joe, he's not considered the favorite in this fight for no reason! But give B-Hop a little more RESPECT for what he can accomplish in the ring! W's and L's count at the end of the day!

And somebody need to let Joe Calzaghe know that Jermain Taylor won't ever get credit for beating B-Hop once! let alone twice! The boys at HBO know the deal!!!

Calzaghe is a GOOD boxer who can fight his a** off! But B-Hop has beaten them type before! You don't become a Legend in this sport without winning when the odds is stacked AGAINST you! Calzaghe can ONLY help B-Hop cement his legacy even more!
If Joe wins, he'll need about 3 more B-Hop caliber fighters on his resume to be REMEMBERED as a BOXING legend instead of a UK GREAT!

And anybody who knows anything about the sport will know Hopkins hasn't looked great in his last few fights. His out put is so low i find it hard to believe he can beat punching machine like Calzaghe, throwing 1 punch at a time.

No one is taking anything away from Hopkins people are just being realistic, Hopkins is too old plus there is no way on this earth Hopkins is going to keep up with Calzaghe, so how will Hopkins win ?? he can't KO Calzaghe, he can't out work him, can't out box him, can he make it a rough tough night for Calzaghe ?? yes he can i don't think it will be easy but i really can't see how Hopkins can win.

Calzaghe is a GOOD boxer who can fight his a** off! But B-Hop has beaten them type before!

So Hopkins has beaten a lot of southpaw fighters, who can throw 1000 punches, plus land punches from all angles ??
You guys not givin Bernard enough credit! Joe is a PROBLEM for Bernard! I never said Joe was not good enough! You guys are sayin Bernard is not GOOD enough to even make this a fight! Has Joe ever fought someone close to Bernard's stature?
Bernards stature? Has Hopkins fought anyone on Joe's level. I really think not.
Groupie lust at it's finest. As well as boxing stupidity. Hopkins as fought Roy Jones, Antonio Tarver and Felix Trinidad. Fighters who are better than Calzaghe
