    basic defense
    Kessler has decent defense, he's a very well-rounded fighter.
    Kessler was/is a good fighter. But he ain't nowhere Hopkins level. Hopkins is great. Kessler is not.
    If the 43 year old version of Hopkins was to fight Kessler, my money would be on Kessler.

    Joe is going to roll, it will be just like the Taylor fights except Joe will not tire mid way through the fight

    Calzaghe will crumble Hopkins is going to be his toughest fight and he won't come through Taylor beat Hopkins but only just but Taylor wasn't the same after fighting Hopkins.Calzaghe took a lot of hammer in his last fight vs Kessler every time Kessler caught Joe with a big punch it was when he was coming in with them daft pitter patter flurries Hopkins will fight on back foot and catch Calzaghe at will.

    This is no easy fight for Joe going into the lions den and fighting the co promoter of the show in his own back yard is a big RISK...

    let just hope if he does win and it aint a given that Joe gets the props he so rightly deserves from all and non of this Hopkins aged overnight etc

    may the best man win with no controversy

    COME ON JOEEEEEEEEE

    This is something not many people understand. America is a place built on diversity and differences, when you come here people will not be singing in unison or in rhythm. Just as many Americans that are voting for Hopkins will be matched with people who are voting for Joe (Americans), unlike if the place of the fight was in total opposite (Britian) when 99% of the arena if voting for Joe. Hop has just as many haters here as he has fans (attitude), and althought he has the title of CO PROMOTER he has no advantage here.

    You wait, Cortez will let Hopkins work as much as he wants on the inside. I can't see him shouting "No Bernard stop" everytime they clinch like he did with Rick.

    Maybe Joe should just stick his head through the ropes and get lots of points deducted from Bernard as he throws a punch...........that would be my plan

    To be honest I think Cortez has been waiting for Hopkins to get KO'd for just as long as I have, go JOEEE

    its all down to who turns up mate and who is fighing who... Co promoter is an issue for sure IMO

    as for Britian rooting for Joe that would prob be down to the fact that not many Amricans would turn up to root for there fighter but i doubt Hopkins would get a bad reception... Kessler didnt and i dont think Lacy did... hell i remember Johhny Tapia coming to the UK to fight the tail end of his Career and never have i seen such a welcome on his entry fo any UK fighter

    there are some good fans over in the UK mate that respect all boxers dont get them mixed up with the football thugs that have jumped on the Hatton Bandwagon

    But hasnt boxing has always had a bit of a following with football lads/casuals in the UK?

    I remember a huge brawl at the NEC arena between Man Us crew and Birmingham Zulus a while back. Who the boxing match was between escapes me though.
