Totally agree Calzaghe is one of a kind he is a skillful southpaw, with an excellent array of punches. I think based on work rate alone Calzaghe will win this, Hopkins only throws about 15 punches a round i really can't see someone with such a low output beating Calzaghe. But i do see Hopkins using clinches and rough tactics to off set Calzaghe's rhythm and try and frustrate Calzaghe, plus Hopkins has some good technical skills i expect Calzaghe to win but not easily by any means.
