    I can't see Calzaghe winning on points in the US. Even if he wins, he won't win. Hopkins by UD.

    Calzaghe UD. Late TKO could be on the cards.

    You're right. I preferred it when it was the select few against the world.

    Never underestimate the powers of B-Hop.

    B-Hop beats JC by UD - but in a competitive fight.

    There's no way I see JC not coming to fight - but there's no way I see him beating B-Hop.

    This is bull****...

    April 13th is a Sunday. When was the last time a major fight occurred on a Sunday?

    Also, GBP already spoke about having the fight in Vegas. Hopkins wanted the fight in Yankee Stadium, but I've seen nothing close to proof of it yet.

    It'll be Sunday GMT as the East Side is 5 hours behind UK time. It will be on the Saturday night (the 12th), my apologies.

    exactly... theres a billion idiots on here screaming calzaghe is the greatest in his division of all time i find that hard to believe... no... impossible for alot of reasons

    if he was that good i would have known about him a long time ago ( dont say my lack of boxing following.. but if he was that good hed be way more hyped)

    boxings been around something like 200 years right? no way this guys #1

    and he probably does have a better chance of beating bhop then bhop has chances of beating him

    but hey its bhop... hes definitely pulled some big upsets.. and so far age has not caught up with him yet

    I think Calzaghe has a great chance of beating hopkins, I watched calzaghe-kessler yesterday and he is a competitor. Hopkins is a bit too old.

    I am looking forward to this fight.

    Look for Calzaghe to drop a decision to Hops. Never come to the US again. Blame corrupt judging.

    I think Hopkins will make it a very close fight but I think Calzaghe will win!

    I think it would be too cold to have the fight in Yankee stadium in April. Madison Square Garden would be a bit more believable for that date.
