    This is quite interesting, haven't seen this before but skip forward to about 1 min 38 secs after the Hatton weigh in. Hopkins is listening carefully to what Calzaghe is saying:

    He don't look happy. But...what the **** has he got?! Why is it that he thinks he can win?

    It's ****ing me up.

    Not interested in the people who say $. Hopkins is NOT getting in there to lose.

    Roll on.

    People complained when this fight was made. People are complaining now. But i'm looking forward to it more than any other slated fight.

    Gonna be good.

    He's confident of a TKO I reckon....in that clip he was talking about his right hand counter coming from nowhere and Calzaghe was knocked down by a Byron Mitchell counter right a few years ago now. Hopkins is counting on that punch to put Joe off his game altogether.

    If that is all he has he should stay at home.

    Well I keep getting shot down for saying Calzaghe will win this one more handily than the Kessler fight but I'm glad someone agrees that Hopkins at 43 will struggle greatly to win this fight

    with all due respect to nard, mitchell cracks harder and caught joe with a sickening shot right to the temple.

    Both Hopkins and JC are playing for the camera.

    Hopkins looks like hes scrutinising Calzaghe, but hes just puting that face on, he really couldnt learn anything from Calzaghe there anyways.

    Good vid though, means nothing

    50K in the millenium stadium in november says you're wrong.

    nard couldn't even give away tickets for free on the streets of philly for his fight with krispy kreme wright.

    Right exactly. And that punch from Mitchell only pissed Calzaghe off after he got his legs back (with in seconds) and you know what happened next.
