If Hopkins didnt hit and hold so much I would want to see it, but damn man he was like a mini Ruiz in there.
I had the Hopkins up by 1 point after 4 rounds due to the KD in the first round. After that Calzaghe started landing his jab, backing Hopkins up and just took over the fight. So I agree with your score but most see it much closer. I guess some fans like watching a guy grab another guy and then elbow him, rabbit punch and hit him in the groin area and then fake low blows to get a rest. I like watching boxing.
It was a clear win for Joe and that doesn't warrant a rematch when Joe could be fighting Jones Jr., Pavlik or Dawson. It wasn't like it was a great back & forth fight either..................
the same thing will happen again. same fight only maybe joe will fient ,spring the trap and swarm when he is off balance.
exactly! i was really disapointed on the lack of exitement and quality boxing in the jc-bhop fight! borring clinching and holding. rewatch the jc- kessler fight, now thats what its all about. i think a fight against pavlik would be a hell of a fight and if not then a roy jones jr fight could make a good one too, but a rerun of what we saw saturday night:nono
Joe didn't lose ****, if the old **** has balls come over to England next time and he will get his old ass KO'D.. All Hops does is hold, if he would have fought straight up his ass is :dead
Hopkins aint going to get in the ring with Calzaghe. 1. Calzaghe has him worked out two. 2. He cant stand losing to a wahite boy again.
