    It was better for him probably cause his boy won clearly. ;)

    Only if he fought him in Britian. The same with Dawson as he wouldnt be able to sell out over in America as proved when he fought Antonio Tarver.

    You must have seen the first fight.

    Why on earth would you want to watch a repeat of that again?

    Lounge only!

    :lol:

    BTW, I'm happy so many seem interested in seeing this. Before Calzaghe beat Jones so easily, I would have figured the votes for yes and no would be almost the opposite of what we now see.

    from a hopkins point of view, it makes sense.... but from calzaghes, it make no sense whatsoever.
    this would definately make less money than the last one, especially if its in cardiff. plus, if joe beats him again, what does it mean?...nothing, just that we seen a boring fight again and calzaghe wins... again! I do admit, hopkins seems to have the right idea of how to beat calzaghe, but he wont because in a boring fight, the judges will go for the aggressor. If joe is gonna retire on a cardiff fight, he wants a more exciting fight than hop.

    why should calzaghe do hopkins any favours? To please all the Hopkins fans?? Naaaah!!:tired

    I don't want to see that bull****, boring fight again..

    Kessler-Calzaghe was more exciting and more competitive.......Nevermind the fact that Kessler is still a prime opponent

    Crappy poll.

    You ask am I the only one who wants to see? I say YES - yes, you are the only one. Then I see that you have cheated with the poll and made the question so that Yes suddenly means the opposite. Not very clever.

    Im guessing that the only people that want to see Calzaghe-Hopkins II are those that badly want to see Joe lose.

    Personally I think he beats Hopkins again but their fight was 1 of Joe`s closest were he didnt look his best BUT it was a terribly boring fight so why would anyone want to see it again other than to give Joe the best chance of losing ?

    Thats my view anyway.

    Ps. I voted indifferent as there are better fights to be made but 2 wins over B-Hop is certainly worth having so Im not bothered either way.

    I voted yes- But only if B'Hop decides to fight, if he goes into 'spoiling mode' again it will be another boring fight.

    *The choice of ref could make a big difference in ensuring an entertaining contest IMO.
