    So, Ive started a poll looking to see who you thought won the fight. Be honest to yourself, if that is indeed possible.

    Let the voting commence.
    Very close because of the 10-8 1st round and Hopkins winning at least 3 of the first 4 rounds. I can't see how anybody gives him a round after round 5 though

    It was a horrible fight, Hopkins was unwilling or more likely unable to make a fight of it after those early rounds.

    Part of me would like to see a rematch because I think Calzaghe could do a much better job. Having said that, even if Calzaghe outlanded Hopkins by 500 and shut him out for 10 of 12 rounds, you would still get the same people disagreeing with how the vast majority go about scoring their fights.

    One of these polls was done immediately after the fight - it was a landslide for Calzaghe.

    I think it's best to let the neutrals judge in these close-ish fights.

    You'll never see a hater pick Joe and likewise his fans will pick him.. but the neutrals overwhelmingly thought Calzaghe won. Which he did. Fact.

    If the fans debate over this fight like this its shows their should be a rematch i know Calzaghe won't rematch him but us the fans know their should be one.
