    I doubt it, Joe is not a dirty fighter by nature, he simply responded to what was happening to him

    Joe won this fight by a landslide
    No, probably not. Thats the thing though, being dirty is apart of Hopkins style.

    The thing with the thread starter is, he criticize's Hopkins for being dirty and totally ignores the fact that Joe fought dirty himself. It's just unfair.

    The only thing clear about that fight was that it was shit to watch.
    That's because it's like pointing out Riddick Bowe threw a low blow after Golota unleashed the third combo on his goolies.
    No it's not.

    The thread starter was simply too biased to point out that Joe fought dirty himself.

    All anyone remembers is Hopkins faking low blows, intentionally punching low himself and throwing some quite impressive headbuts.

    Calzaghe's minimal fouls were common to every boxing match. That's why no one mentions them... well apart from Calzaghe haters/Hopkins huggers

    Thats all Calzaghe fans remember. they don't like to admit there boy fought dirty as well.

    Don't try and justify Calzaghe's illegal rabbit punching and low blows. Whether they were minimal or not, he did it.

    Calzaghe even admitted to hitting Hopkins low in round 2 because Hopkins put him on his ass in round 1.

    Calzaghe fans probably would turn a blind eye to his minimal fouls. Just like Hopkins huggers try to mask his cowardly, despicable cheating.

    The neutrals would by far remember Hopkins cowardly, despicable cheating over Calzaghe's minimal fouls though, right?

    The neutrals would remember Calzaghe's epic windmill combos over Hopkins clean hard punches.

    You mean Hopkins one clean hard punch (well maybe 3)

    The polls showed a landslide victory for Calzaghe. No neutrals thought Hopkins won that fight (well maybe two or three)

    Still more than what Joe landed.

    The polls favored Calzaghe, i'm fully aware of that. It doesn't mean it wasn't close.

    Look at the recent Pacquiao/Marquez 2 thread here on saddos. That was a close fight but the majority so far had Marquez winning.

    That's 1 - 3 more clean punches than Calzaghe landed.
