calzaghi was forcing the fight and as a result left himself open for these single punches
he outpunched him by so many
i would keep and open mind and watch the you tube vid, and maybe i will some day
Why not watch the fight and score it within the rules? This fight should of been a UD for Hopkins. Understand this rule. Follow it. And than watch the fight.
"The boxer can only strike with a closed fist using the front knuckle portion of the glove.
Slapping with an open hand or striking with the wrist or lace area is illegal. The thumb must be held tight to the fist to avoid eye-gouging."
90% of Calzaghe's "punches" shouldn't even of counted. So how the fuck can anybody have him winning is just moronic.
i just rewatched it, he won very clearly
i watched the hopkins biast version, even on that joe won
hopkins won the first four, or has a case for it, the rest of the rounds he only threw about 4 punches
slaps kisses tickles whatever, even if 90% of calzaghis punches didnt count he still landed a lot more than hopkins
100% agree
