    That's the worst i've seen joe fight since his early days,at the end of the day hopkins was at his best last night and joe hardly got out of second gear,which just about says it all imo.
    Everyone has there off days and joe had his last night.

    Bhop was lucky to win aginst winky,decisions swings in roundabouts,it just wasn't in bhops favour last night.

    It could of gone either way,but the attacker should always get the edge if it's close,and he was the attacker all night.

    Well done bhop anyway,you put on a great performance:happy

    I dont think either fighter was at their best last night. Joe C did what he had to pull it off though.

    :good

    He obviously wasn't, but it's still a good win for Joe.

    agreed,and once again cortez done his best to favour hopkins as well,just like he done in the pbf hatton fight.
    Letting him hold at will,but as soon as calzaghe tryed it he jumped all over him.

    Bernard Hopkins did exactly what he always does and Calzaghe wasn't ready for it. Considering that Calzaghe has been calling out Hopkins for years, this lack of preparation is quite surprising.

    What are you trying to say?

    Hops was at his very best last night and Calzaghe was at his worst?

    :lol: :patsch

    I don't think Joe was that far from his best, it was more of hopkins making him LOOK bad.
