    The rules of all the major bodies are all online.... please give us the link to "champ gets the benefit of the doubt" rule and we will all shut the **** up and you will have the biggest e-peen in the whole of ESB history.

    Alternatively you will just be the biggest ***** in ESB history. How about a $500 bet that you cant find that rule and that you are making a dick of yourself?

    How convenient it is that your scorecard fails to give Hopkins credit for the 5th, 6th, 7th, and 8th rounds. Rounds that Kevin Iole, Bert Sugar, Dan Rafael, Steve Kim, and the Associated Press, as well as many other writers and members of the media gave to Hopkins. You could not give Hopkins the benefit of the doubt in any of those rounds, despite the fact that Calzaghe was doing almost no clean work whatsoever. That's some ****ing objectivity you've got.. Again, nice Calzaghe avatar.

    8th and 9th round he gave away in the fight. If he lets his hands go at the end of those rounds, he wins those rounds easily. So your right, Hopkins will do a little more than he did the first time, which we'll make it more convincing and more dominating win if the fight looks the same. I on't see Calzaghe doing anything different but flurrying the same way, cause that's all he showed he could do, where Hopkins could done more to what he was already doing.

    Larry Merchant was talking about that after the end of the JT/Hopkins 1.:roll:
    Don't tell me Merchant made it up too. You know exactly what i'm talking about, your just trying anything to defend Calzaghe cause you know he didn't beat Hopkins convincingly in that fight.

    I fail to give Hopkins credit for them rounds for one reason. That reason is he did absolutly nothing to warrant me to even consider giving him them rounds.

    Who cares what other people seen? Im going off what i seen, which is exactly what you told somebody else to do earlier in the thread.

    I give Hopkins rounds 1,2,3,4 and 10. I had Hopkins up 5 points after 4 rounds, you telling me a bias Calzaghe fan would have scored it that way?

    After that Hopkins main weapon was took away. Calzaghe figured him out, applied pressure and Hopkins was unable to do what won him a sweep from 1-4, its as simple as that.

    5-9 Calzaghe, 10 to Hopkins, 11-12 Calzaghe. Calzaghe wins by a point.

    Larry Merchant? Do you listen to the things he says ??? The guy seems like he is drunk most of the time...although I find him entertaining and he always asks the tough questions he isn't the law on the rules of boxing.

    This argument you and San Rafael are coming up with is weak.

    If Hopkins could of done more, then why didn't he do it?

    Im a hell of a lot more objective when it comes to Calzaghe than you can ever be when it comes down to Hopkins.

    Point out my bias. Thanks.

    Nope, what I told someone else earlier in the thread was that "making someone look like a fool" is subjective. There's nothing about scoring punches that is subjective. That is why virtually every so called expert gave Hopkins one or more of those rounds. Your card is not horrible though, just slightly biased. You have indicated that very clearly.

    Now if Bert Sugar does, than some points should be taken. But of course Bert is a Hopkins fan and deosn't know how to score fights either according to all you guys on this board.:roll:
