    It would be a devastating loss if Calzaghe loses this one infront of an American audience.

    I will be rooting for Joe and I know he can beat Bhop and do it in style.

    I've got to say, for some reason I really hope Calzaghe DOES dissapoint. Or at least loses Of course I don't hope for a lackluster fight, but I just don't want to see Calzaghe do too well.... Don't know why, I guess I'm just a sucker for the underdog, old fighter, etc. I also dislike Calzaghe, I think he's a tremendous fighter who could have been right in the mix YEARS ago, but has just never pursued the big fights. Kessler was a damn good win and an excellent fighter, but there are still so many more good fighters Joe should have fought years ago. I feel Glen Johnson would have given him hell at any point, and the fact that Calzaghe has withdrew from fighting him several times never sat well with me. Honestly I find Joe very entertaining to watch, and I hate the way Ricky Hatton fights... But I have FAR more respect for Ricky since he left Frank Warren and actually sought out big fights in the US. Calzaghe has been content to just fight whoever Warren finds for him, in Wales, his entire career. I think Hopkins was dead right in that press conference, where he said Calzaghe is fighting him because there's really nowhere else to go. I also think Calzaghe is only taking this fight on foreign soil due to Hopkins age, which drastically influences my wanting Hopkins to win. Aside from all of that, I find Calzaghe a very boring person, I really never want to hear him say anything, wheras to me Hopkins is captivating, although obviously not too bright he is entertaining to listen to. He is the one selling this fight, he sure as hell didn't have to take the fight, wheras like I say Calzaghe had little other options. I would just absolutely love it if Hopkins had it left in him to pull this off.

    can't wait for the fight. I feel Hopkins has nothing to lose and everything to win by taking this fight, if he loses he is still good but old and past it and if he wins he goes up big time in all time rankings. for joe taking this fight he risks alot if he loses but wins all kinds of respect if he wins.

    I'm another guy who would gun calzaghe at every oppurtunity but he did win me over with that stirring performance against Kessler. I don't know who I want to win..from a boxing stand-point it would be great for either fighter to win. Hopkins to pull out a last big performance and retire or Calzaghe to scalp another big name and go up another notch.
    I do think this talk of him competing for P4P number one is silly though..he left it far too late imo for any talk about him reaching the top of that list. The competition he has faced previously doesn't allow for it.
    Their styles are going to be a major factor in the end result of this fight.

    I see Calzaghe starting very fast in the first couple of rounds then settling down, he will continue to set the pace for most of the fight.Hopkins will cause JC some problems he is to good a fighter to go through a whole fight and not have his moments. I see Calzaghe winning 8 rounds to 4 .
