$500 bet for any Calzaghe fan in here

Let's not talk out of our asses completely now... Hopkins KNOWS HE WON. He has always maintained that. Also, understand something; Hopkins was primarily trying to earn deductions, not take breaks. Calzaghe committed countless fouls in that fight between all the rabbit punches and low blows.

 

Fighting Pavlik is a whole different story from fighting Joe Calzaghe though, thats for sure.

Their facial expression after the immediate fight tells us Joe Calzaghe was very disappointed in this showing, he knew the fight was NOT crowd pleasing, Hopkins on the other hand, pretended like he had won the fight when he had not done enough to convince the judges.

Go back and look at the Jermain Taylor vs. Bernard Hopkins I & II fights, Hopkins has a good poker face, he's gonna try to convince people like you that don't know how to judge a fight he's won it... when in reality, he's lost.

If you understand boxing, you would know that throwing punches against Pavlik is a whole different game than throwing punches against Calzaghe, because Calzaghe will retaliate and go punch for punch with you, and thus far he's outworked, outboxed all of his opponents, PERIOD.

 

****, you have never made a single viable point on this subject. STFU, idiot. You're a troll. That's it.

 

If he had stamina to pummel the living **** out of Pavlik then he definitely had stamina against Calzaghe. It was just that he was confused against Calzaghe more than anything, the first time I have ever seen Hopkins confused, Calzaghe also made him look very slow which is why almost EVERYONE picked Pavlik over Hopkins and by brutal KO.

A rematch though could spell doom for Calzaghe, Hopkins now has a tape of watch of his self in there against Calzaghe and has enough time to make adjustments, which is why he has been asking for the rematch A LOT and even said he will go to England for it.

 

He faked low blows, he held A LOT, he refused to engage and he looked lack luster.

He didn't do enough to win the fight.

 

Nobody takes that ****ing idiot seriously. He's a moron.

 

As far as I am concerned, neither fighter was beat.

 

Scoring prizefights is about clean and effective punching. Calzaghe landed so few punches in that fight it's absurd. He literally landed something on the order of between 10 and 20 legitimate scoring punches. One of the worst displays in championship boxing history. You have to score to win. All that crap you're referring to has nothing to do with the fact that Calzaghe was utterly inneffective offensively. Hopkins did not fake a low blow, BTW. Please get your facts straight. There's no need to lie. Hopkins exaggerated the effect of a low blow in the 10th round - it was a low blow, regardless.

 

Thank You! Byrd has made some bad decisions in the past and this was maybe the worst of them. She has my true sympathy for the loss of her son but with that tragedy aside she is a horrible judge. I think if they rematch both men would come in with an improved game plan to help ensure a win therefor it would be another decision but I think with both men giving it their all with the right game plan Joe would out work Hopkins again only with a little more distance this time and take a slightly wider decision. I would say the scores would be roughly 116 - 110. Unless Hopkins can catch him with something big and actually keep him down I dont see how Joe would lose.

 

SPOT ON! :good
