    As of 2013, severely butt-hurt posters are still popping up on this forum boldly claiming Hopkins really won. Has a lie become a truth, or a truth become a lie?

    Only reason it was close was because of the KD....Joe won more than enough rounds to win IMO

    I have since changed the result to a lopsided decision for Hopkins, with Joe being penalized a few 10-8 rounds for slapping.

    :nono Don't get jealous just because my thread looks better, and is actually intended to reveal the truth.

    You do want the truth, don't you?

    Calzaghe 115-112, I've seen it twice and I thought it wasn't that difficult to score

    There's no truth to reveal, there's fact: Calzaghe SD WIN, he won, he was victorious, he defeated Hopkins, Hopkins lost, Calzaghe triumphed.

    Maybe I'm just a biased Bernard nuthugger, but I've watched this fight three times and have always had him comfortably winning

    The punch stats on that fight were laughable to say the least.
