Calzaghe - Hopkins The Facts!!

[Gandalf]

Giving 6 rounds to Hopkins is warped....

Ultimately it was closer than I thought it would be. Ive just finished rewatching it on video. No doubts that Joe did more than enough. It was his superior workrate that did seperate them.

Joe just didnt do very much in the first 3 rounds. Therafter it was Joe all the way.

Which is pretty much as I saw it too, and at the end of the day, you can have what stats you like brought up,

But they mean nothing, this does tho,

FACT: JOE WON, AND HE WAS RIGHTLY DECLARED THE WINNER AFTER THE SCORE CARDS HAD BEEN HANDED IN AND COUNTED UP,

AND THAT WAS DONE IN FLOPKINS BACKYARD TOO ....

Get over it, or live with it, but learn to accept it because it's happened, it's gone and now a part of Boxing history..

Tried to rep you but was told to "spread the rep". I will catch up later.

I did want Joe to stop Hopkins so we wouldnt have had any room for the whingers and excuse makers. But it wasnt to be. As it is Calzaghe continues to be unbeaten and marches on. As that final bell sounded part of me wished that we still had 15 rounders because Joe looked fresh as a daisy and could have gone on indefinately.

Anyway, he won by 4 points by my reckoning. Not even that close. Now bring on Jones Jr. Personally im not really into the Jones Jr fight because I think he is way over the hill but if thats what Joe wants then who can begrudge him a payday at 36?
