    they both utilized headlocks




    a low blow is an illegal maneuver even if it doesnt hit u dead on in the balls so if he wanted to be a dick he could have easily deducted points from calzaghe

    anyway calzaghe barely landed anything in that fight, the majority of the shots he threw hit hopkins in the arms/back or missed him completely



    when he did land he was ineffective



    each time he decided to trade hopkins would get off at least 1 hard shot and calzaghe would rethink trading



    he really did look like an amateur in that fight


    even if for whatever re3ason u think calzaghe won that fight u have to be able to understand why people feel he looked like an amateur, he was INCREDIBLY sloppy and was countered a huge amount of times
    LOL and Baldomir was the aggressor, who ne'er got hurt from the pitter-pat punches of Floyd, who ran like a girl all night, content with just grazing Baldo's head once every round. Can't have it both ways.

    ?


    both ways?


    i would have laughed if mayweather was robbed vs baldozar


    anyway the two fights arent even comparable


    mayweather is fast, accurate and he actually throws real punches that make contact with an opponenets head or body

    calzaghe fought hopkins fight at hopkins pace, didn't seem to be landing much and when he did they were uneffective while eating hopkins effective counters.

    Only for the first few rounds did he fight at Hopkins pace, but you can't easily 'up' the pace with a guy molesting you. Also you say Calzaghes punches were soft 'pitter pats' I think I agree, makes Hopkins crying in pain at a 'low blow' look even more pathetic.
