A prime Hopkins would have probably beaten THAT Calzaghe. But prime vs prime its Calzaghe all day for me.
Very tough call, but I'd lean towards Hopkins, however as I've said before, I think Hopkins was nearer his prime that JC was at that time (strange to say I know) Hopkins best wins have all come past 40, his best performances were Tarver and Pavlik (which sandwiched the JC fight) JC's best nights were v Lacy and Kessler, cracks started to appear after that and I think he was 1 fight away from getting Koed
