    That statement tell's me, that Calzaghe feels like Bhop is a great fighter, I mean come on if he feels that a win over Bhop makes him p4p number one that speaks volumes for Bhop would you not say?

    Bhop is a great fighter. Only the idiots on this forum doubt that. He's an ageless wonder. Whoever the winner tomorow night, its not down to age/weigh/location. Its simply whos the better fighter.

    Whoever wins out of the both of them has a claim to the best fighter in the world title.

    Losing to Hopkins will make him a better fighter then he was last month.

    No doubt. All this other bull**** is just the same old pre-fight crap.

    Hopkins is a great fighter but lets face reality.. He's over 40 and not fighting at his natural weight. Calzaghe fans will say "Oh you're just making excuses for if Hopkins loses" No.. I'm just stating obvious FACTS. Now if Calzaghe beats Chad Dawson then I'd definetly be impressed and give him props for that.. But he's gonna stay far away from Dawson for sure.

    I have the winner (if it's a clear victory) as p4p #1, as both guys are top-5 p4p and have fought and beat better opposition than Mayweather and have better skills IMO. The fact that they are still this good at 36 and 43 says a lot. I can't imagine Mayweather being this good when he's their age.

    No chance either guys moves up to #1 (or even #2) pound-for-pound after this fight, regardless of the result.

    Hopkins is on his last legs..anyone who thinks otherwise is an idiot..
    This is no case of someone being battle worn or being an ageless wonder
    There is no excuse here
    Bhop is just OLD! plain and simple
    the guy is 42 hes approaching Archie Moore. His craftiness has done him well but dont get confused not getting dominated to being still great.
