Hate to say it but..Hopkins might do a number on Calzaghe!!!

Swapped back to Hopkins again Smash?

Before the fight you'll be back on Calzaghe.. gauranteed.. then Hopkins, then Calzaghe....

Only problem I see for Joey boyo is the fight being in Vegas. He could get "robbed."

And even if not robbed, Hopkins will make the fight as boring and ugly as humanly possible.. so tough to score.

I don't see Hopkins "robbing" anyone. He is one of the more disliked fighters in boxing and if anything he'll be the one getting "robbed" just to be giving him the finger. Hopkins is easy to dislike. Other than being from another country (which is major), Joe Calzaghe is an immensely likeable guy. He beat the schmidt out of Lacy, a guy I really liked, and now I like him.

Getting "robbed" hasn't got anything to do with how likeable you are it's about situations and connections.

1. This fight is a Golden Boy Promotion.. which favours Hopkins.

2. Calzaghe's a foreigner (as you stated ).

3. Hopkins has mentioned all through the making of this fight his motivation is AMERICA-vs-Britain.. this will only intensify when the promotion heats up nearer the off.

4. It's almost certain to be 3 American judges and a Hopkins freindly ref.

5. There's a strong chance Calzaghe's supporters will be as thick as Ricky Hatton's and boo the "The Star-Spangled Banner" before the off.. which will be the icing on the cake.
