    Where's the zero option? I see this fight as a possible complete shutout since Potshotkins doesn't start fighting until round 6.

    The disrespect for Hopkins continues.

    He was a huge underdog against Tito.

    He was a 3-1 underdog against Tarver.

    He was the underdog against Winky.

    Why is it that people always expect him to lose and even when he proves people wrong, they still don't give him the benefit of the doubt? Is it the fact that nothing stands out about him except that he knows how to box better than anybody alive?

    That's enough to get the job done. You know they will give Calzaghe some rounds for slapping ineffectively in bunches.:smoke

    Calzaghe is a vicious slapper, but even that won't save him.

    2-3, don't think Bhop even has a chance to save grace in this one.

    I voted for 7 rounds. Hopkins can pull off the upset, but Calzaghe must be the favourite.

    Trend most recently has been that the younger, or more marketable fighters have been getting the victories.. Hop could out box Calzaghe for 9 rounds and still get an L.
