    If bhop beats Pascal would Calzaghe fans finally admit that Bhop is greater than Calzaghe, or would you find something else. As far as I concerned if bhop pulls this off he would of lapped calzaghe 3 or 4 times in competitive fights category.

    I don't think anyone would dispute Hopkins is greater. Even the most hardcore of Calzaghe fans.

    Undoubtedly it would only boost Calzaghe's legacy in their eyes. Duh.

    Maybe some of them will but the true nuthugging ones? Not a chance. There is even a thread comparing Sven Ottke's resume to Bernard's thats how bad it is around here.

    Calzaghe dismantled Lacy. If not for Calzaghe Lacy would have been the next Tyson. He was that good.

    Calzaghe SD12 Hopkins. 19th April 2008.

    Anything else is wishful thinking.

    the annoying thing when fans talk about calzaghe is that a lot of them either overrate or underrate him.there seems to be little middle ground when a lot of people talk about calzaghe

    Itll just prove that calzaghe did not beat a faded version of hopkins as some claim. Although thats already been proved with Pavlik.

    The Calzaghe fans will acknowledge the fact Hopkins is already greater, regardless of whether he beats Pascal or not.

    The Calzslappers, however, will fight you to the death to crown Calzaghe as the greatest fighter of the past 20 years.

    Hopkins has the better wins, but Calzaghe was the better fighter. If Hopkins wins, it adds more strength to the idea he was closer to his prime than Calzaghe.

    I generally think few Americans know when Calzaghe's true peak was, because he became a star over there so late in his career. They just assume that was his peak.

    Hopkins was a better fighter than Calzaghe, Jack.

    Hopkins is one of the greatest technicians of the last 20 years.
