Back in December this same poll being conducted here and Calzaghe was winning that one, 15 votes to 6 votes...
Calzaghe by a significant margin. Cant even seeing it all that close if Calzaghe brings his recent form.
I had Calzaghe at first, Then i started thinking about it , now im not sure. ? :-)
a close fight i see going hopkins way.
If Taylor beat him twice a coupla years ago Joe will definitely beat him now.
It's been said before though, Joe earns no credit when he wins. It's a lose-lose situation. Almost anyway, VD being wrong again will make up for it for me.
You got to admire Mr Hopkins for taking on this challange at 43 against a faster, bigger, younger, freasher and some would say more experianced challenger in Mr Calzaghe. Bernards got balls you got to give him that on the other hand Joe has big ones too coming out of his comfort zone and going to LV after what happened to Ricky. Joes risking everything on this fight if the Nard looses so what "he was old well past his sell by date" every one will be saying that on here sunday.
Joes going to be to fast and cute for Bernard at this stage of his career, just to much for the Nard to chew on he will be relying on the counter right (dont you think Joe relizes this) all night but he dont bang as hard as Kessler so I cant see Joe backing off and giving the Nard enough time to reorganize himself.
Joe for me 8 rounds to 4
Respect to all.![]()
Right after the Kessler fight, when I think it was Hopkins called out Joe,,, the general concensus through the threads was that Joe would beat "old man Hopkins" like a gong..
I think the fact that the fight is here, and people have really had a chance to consider these 2 guys head to head.. They are both champions that know what they are doing in their, regardless of much else... Their isn't anything that seperates these guys by enough to straight up say without doubt who will win..
These are the fights I love!
You can watch 10,000 boxing matches and know styles like the back of your hand, but some fights you just can't sum up 100%.
