I wouldn't say he had nightmares when they did fight so I definitley don't see him having them at 33 year old. I think that had Hopkins had his stamina of old that night against Calzaghe he would have took a close but unanimous decision, so with his obvious younger speed advantage and I believe power too to add to the stamina, he would have took a comfortable win against Calzaghe at 33 year old.
