    KO Calzaghe within 6 rounds :lol::patsch. Wonder why Hopkins didnt want to fight Calzaghe all those years previously.

    Hopkins couldn't even stop the walking punching bag glass jawed version of Roy that Danny Green beat in a round. As a matter of fact, the one who was closer to being stopped was Hopkins... I have seen knockdowns ruled for lesser things than that borderline low blow Roy knocked him down with.

    Roy was always in Hopkins' head, and would have won anytime before his move up to HW. Which is why Hopkins priced himself out, he knew he would lose.

    That was quite possibly one of the most ridiculous posts I have ever seen regarding Bernard Hopkins.:lol:

    I am not even going to bother picking it apart.

    Why do people ignore the fact that Roy and HBO tried to make big fights at 168 before Roy moved up to LHW?:huh
