    i feel the people of the nevada state commision see this as big buisness and having long running unbeaten guy like calzaghe fight out his own country in vegas for the first time..................looks real bad him loseing a close decition, gives vegas a bad name ( what he's never lost, firt time he fights in vegas againest an america and a close fight goes the other......bloody vegas, thats why the guy never wanted to go there all theses years )

    you talk about hopkins eating humble pie.................what about joe, why does he not say he thought he'd lost the fight, because he did, have you ever seen joe and his daddy ever look so panic'd, they felt they'd lost the fight and where hopeing for a favor.......... they got 115-112 and 116-111 do me favor
    I have to agree with this dude. Joe only won because hes bigger money now. If hopkins would have won its likely he would retire champion and no more money for vegas. JC win and maybe another couple of big fights in vegas and for golden boy promotion, its all politics

    Theres nothing wong with Hopins thinking he won the fight. Hes right that he did everything he said he would and he cant control the judges. If it was in Wales he would have had many point deductions and he would have lost a UD or been disqualified. Thats fact. But he was allowed to fight his fight and came up a little short.

    Now those are just a completely ignorant statements.

    You guys can't come up with a better argument than that, because that is just grasping for straws there, just like Hopkins is. Hopkins has never been graceful in defeat, and will use any excuse to justify him winning.
