    Calzaghes still got a few fights in him, fight Kessler to get respect, then Jones Jr for the money, then Taylor if Tayors ready to move up.

I've seen Calzaghe fight and he's got good skills, but he ain't that good... & yes I repeat... no chance against Hopkins. I think he'd even struggle with Kessler.
    Joe and alot of people sought out a fight with Sven Ottke and they were all refused. As a matter of fact I've heard JC calling out Bernard and Roy Jones for the last 4-5 years. In your opinion though, why would Hopkins beat Joe?
    Calzaghes never fought anyone near Hopkins' level. Sure Hopkins is old but he's crafty. I don't get what you guys see in Calzaghe. Sure his quite fast, sort of heavy handed but never really been test by a top P4P guy.
    I'm with you on Joe not ever fighting someone on Bernard's level, although he's been in there with some great fighters. But what great fighters has Hopkins' destroyed? Tito is a glorified puncher, ODLH was a blown up lightweight, even though he was the better boxer in those fights he couldn't get passed Taylor's athleticism, Tarver was a joke. The only person who Hopkins' has fought thats on Calzaghe's level is Roy Jones, and he lost. What I'm trying to say is Hopkins' won't keep up with Joe's output. He can't connect with those lunging shots when Joe won't give him any distance, and Bernard can't outfight him on the inside. Thats just my opinion of why Bernard couldn't beat Joe, but in your opinion why would Joe not stand a chance? I wanna know how he does it though, saying this guys fought better than that guy helps nothing at this point mang

    I've seen Calzaghe fight & I've seen Hopkins fight, now sure Hopkins isn't what he used to be when he beat Tito but he's not for off. I feel that Hopkins is just too well schooled for Joe. He knows all the tricks in the book. I reckon Hopkins would out hustle Joe on the inside & give him to many angles on the outside. What I've seen of Joe he for some reason seems to fight the other guys fight. Hopkins IMO would have to just have to much for Joe. Beat him on the inside or rough him up, & outslick him on the outside.

    The Jones that Hopkins fought was in his prime, a guy so good that for 10 years nobody knew he had no chin. & if you could could you please let me know what fights you think are great that Calzaghe has fought

    Old or not Eubank is a far better name than most on Hopkins' resume, Omar Sheika, Byron Mitchell, Robin Reid, and yes the Lacy win

    Alot of people thought Jeff was the greatest thing since sliced bread till he lost. Instead of realizing the truth and saying, yes Lacey is a great banger - not a master boxer and Joe is, thats that. They say Lacy is nothing and Joe is still nothing because he hasn't beaten anyone. It's a type of judgemental, critical, know-it-all bullshit that plagues boxing and we should steer clear as far away from it as we can. It's been the most consistance annoyance since the sport has been in the public spotlight. But I'm a firm believer that my opinion is an opinion, not fact. Alot of people (sheeples) don't see it that way (Lyle!)
