Well, you see, the point in boxing is to hit your opponent with punches, When one guy, Calzaghe is throwing sloppy hooks that aren't hitting his opponent, while his opponent is successfully countering him, using good ring generalship, and defensive skills, I tend to give the round to the guy who is doing more than just walking forward and missing shots.
Hopkins was far superior in skill, and he deserved the fight. The compubox people must have been 90 years old or drunk as fuck to see Calzaghe landing 200+ punches, He didn't land anywhere close to that figure, in fact they landed pretty much the same amount of punches, but Hopkins was landing the better ones.
I don't think Calzaghe-Hopkins was better in Calzaghe's favor then Taylor's, because Hopkins landed more on Calzaghe, he lande easier against Joe, and Taylor was landing much harder shots then Calzaghe.
