    Size advantage is actually to Calzaghe.

    He's a fighter that wants to work of activity defensive movement and slips. It pays for him to be sleeker and smaller

    Coach Roach Promises That Hopkins Will Stop Calzaghe In Later Rounds!
    Roach can be full of it sometimes.
    Yep, Roach overdo it sometimes... but I still consider Roach the better coach, trainer and cornerman compared to Enzo...

    So...

    Size: Advantage to Hopkins
    Corner/Coach: Advantage to Hopkins

    .
    Yeah I guess so. BTW, do you know the latest vegas odds on this?

    So the advantages are ...

    Size: Hopkins
    Corner/Coach: Hopkins
    Speed: Calzaghe
    Age: Calzaghe
    Power: Hopkins
    Experience: Hopkins
    Workrate: Calzaghe


    .
    How does Hopkins have the experience advantage?

    I don't have Vegas but British oddsmaker place Hopkins as a 3 to 1 underdog... I'm thinking of putting some real money on B-Hop... The odds is so tempting...

    B-Hop clearly has the experience advantage being 20 years in boxing with a total of 54 fights. Joe has 44 total fights in 15 years...

    B-Hop also has the tougher opponents...

    Fight week is great hearing the arguements from both sides in a fight like this is always interesting cause really nobody is wrong or right (except about who's bigger, b-hop definatly is for what it's worth against joe) most opinions here make sense so we'll just have to wait and see, total toss up in my book.

    Calzaghe also has a pretty nifty amateur record that you might want to consider.

    Ive just noticed in the pic where they are face to face, Bernards heels arent on the floor, he is trying to tiptoe and intimidate Calzaghe with his height

    He knows hes in deep now and is trying anything, I dont think we will see Bernard be as brave with joe as he was with Wright when he shoved Wright at the weigh in, he knows Joe would whack him

    Exactly.


    There's no experience ADVANTAGE. Both these guys have been fighting their entire lives.. at the very TOP for donkeys years

    Hopkins has HOME advantage. Maybe Calzaghe wont handle fighting in Hopkins backyard.. but i doubt it.

    That shoving with Winky was a marketing ploy... Hopkin's "I'll never lose to a white boy..." is enough to sell more tickets...

    Hopkins as HOME advantage. Maybe Calzaghe wont handle fighting in Hopkins backyard.. but i doubt it.
    Older guys has the experience advantage... Hopkins is 43 while Joe is 36... Hopkins already experienced everything (i think) but Joe has one thing he hasn't experience yet... that is LOSING a fight...
