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.

[Ring Rat]

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.

I will bet you 100 pounds your wrong..........whats that about 600 dollars these days

[bikersk]

I voted for Hopkins mainly because it's being fought in the USA. That should suit Bernard. Otherwise I don't know what the difference will be.

you think hopkins can't win because of two close losses to jermain taylor??

in the first fight his gameplan was to relie on taylor getting tired later and take control, it was't the best gameplan by hop and he took too long waiting for jermain too tire. he learned from that mistake as it showed in the second taylor fight were he started quicker and i felt he won a UD 115-113. he confirmed he learned from his mistake against taylor in the first fight by his performances in the tarver and wright fight.

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.

I think we're possibly looking at a Lewis-Holyfield 1 job.

[Dizaster]

That's where I respect Hopkins HUGELY DDuke, he's moving on in the years, but still taking the big fights.. He's taking genuinally threating fights almost every time.. He doesn't have a huge amount of fighting years left, but while he's still here, he's not wasting his time!
That deserves huge respect,,, and why bloody wouldn't he take fights like this? Good on him!

There are a few guys that need to take a leap out of his book..

Once a fighter genuinally gets beaten hard by a young guy, and really shows their age, I can completely understand them wanting to fight on, but taking less threatening fights. Or fighting guys their own age, ie Jones v Tito.. It's still good stuff to watch.. So respect to Hopkins for taking these fights while he still can..

Did I say their are a few other guys that need to take a leap out of Hopkins book?

[brucelee]

Hopkins for me.

[:::PSL:::]

Calzaghe by SD, bordering on a draw.

Poll Update:

It's currently 19 to 10 in favor of Calzaghe...

Back in December it's 15 to 6 Calzaghe...

Maybe at fight time it will become 50-50... That's how close this fight might be...
