    Hopkins and Froch are the same height and have the same reach. A few pounds in weight doesn't mean much at their weight. Calzaghe went to Vegas and moved up in weight to fight Hopkins and now Froch won't move up a few pounds to fight a much older Hopkins at home. I bet Hopkins would even do a catchweight. Hopkins just wants a chunk of a Sky PPV fight.

    Its not a fight I want to see. Hopkins fights are just awful and this would just be 12 rounds of clinches, head butting, low blows before a Froch decision

    I not a huge Froch fan, but what I said is true.

    Froch has a chin and Hopkins can't punch.

    Eddie certainly recognises the danger that hopkins still presents.

    Your thoughts on how a froch vs hopkins fight would play out..
    That is very magnanimous of Edward with Warren being Cleverlys manager and all that.

    This is all getting a bit silly, good luck to Bernard still making money at 48. Why should Froch fight him? Get brownie points for bashing up an old man? Take risks at a higher weight? Lets leave that to Cleverly, who although about half Bernards age may need the same help from the judges that Joe Calslappy got. Boxing fans know who's quality and who's not nuff said.
    Calzaghe KO Record = 32 KOs in 46 fights
    Hopkins KO Record = 32 KOs in 63 fights

    Calslappy?

    I'd rather get punched by Hopkins to be fair. What's that, 10 years since his last knockout?

    Calzaghe has been retired for 5 years and his last KO was only 7 years ago.

    Dry your eyes mate.
    Nice one

    To be honest, when they announced Calzaghe v Hopkins I thought what a fucking waste of time Hopkins doesnt mean anything but to be fair he has gone on to have some very good results. Giving Pavlik his first loss (all be it by dragging him up a weight), Pascal and Cloud.

    Im sure more people put their head in their hands and groan when a decent fighter is scheduled to face Hopkins because in my eyes it is a waste of time. All we are watching is so eone who is clever at getting away with a few things like Ward. It doesnt fill anyone with excitement to know a Hopkins or Ward fight is on its way

    Calzaghe has a good chin but he managed to drop him and Taylor managed to do the same to Froch. Anyone can go down when they are open to a shot and not concentrating.
