"He looked like he'd been shot in the balls"

[PRIDE OF BOSTON]

The only shame is he did not hit Hopkins in the balls harder. I want to see one of those blatant, deliberate wind up power low blows ala Hatton-Tszyu. Not a little slap on the belt line. What a waste!


Oddly, I thought it looked very unintentional when I watched it, even on the replays.

I think it was unintentional if you ask me... He's trying to sound a little harder then he is.

If Hopkins had`ve fought a clean fight then the low blows would have been out of order. But Hopkins wanted to fight rough and intimidate Calzaghe. If Calzaghe hadnt`ve roughed Hopkins up it would have given Hopkins extra confidence as Calzaghe would have appeared timid.
Calzaghe bullied Hopkins back and from the 10th round Hopkins was looking extremely uncomfortable.

I definitly agree... Calzaghe after begining to assert himself began to land with regularity... Although I hate his style and the way he slaps, he got a bunch of decent blows on my boy in the later rounds.

Hop did look uncomfortable once Joe found his groove. He did a good job keeping the energy up in an energy killer's ring.

JC won convincingly and now the majority of the Americans are making like 300 threads to discredit JC. Is really frustrating watching all this nonsense sore losers crap. Admit it and move on.

Even I picked B-Hop to win but it did not happened

I don't really see us Americans discreditting Joe... My post above yours was just the opposite...

I don't really see many others doing it either.

I wouldn't say that was as "convicing" as you make it sound.

Although I had Joe winning it was only by 1 pt

I'm with you on this P.O.B.

I thought the same thing.
