Bernard Hopkins v Joe Calzaghe..

Im stuck on who to pick like i was with Joe vs Kessler. It'll be a very tense fight that wont be fought at any great pace. My heart wants Bhop but head says Joe.

It disturbs me that whenever Joe is involved in a "what If" matchup conversation it is always "Joe is too busy blah blah blah he wins" This is why i want Bhop to knock his ****in teeth straight back past his spine :twisted:

 

Yea...I don't mind Calzaghe the man, I like him actually, I'm a fan.

But his other fans annoy me and from relative obscurity...they are starting to really overrate him. I mean destroy Hopkins? turn Hopkins into mince meat? And then rate Kessler on the same level as Hopkins? I mean when has Hopkins not been competitive in a fight? Never, and he's fought the best. He fought Jones and up to a certain point Hopkins was the most competitive against a prime Roy and even his losses to Taylor were close enough they could have been scored for Hopkins.

 

Yeah i feel the same.

Thats why i will be on Bhop hops side but know its going to be hard.

Im rooting for the old dude.

 

I couldnt pick a winner before hand but i wanted Joe to win so i could see the Kesslersexuals cry

 

I agree with Teke on this.
My mind is saying Calzaghe will win on points, but my heart wants Hopkins to cause the upset.
Should be a great fight nonetheless.

 

Some of the "Kesslersexuals" are still here :yep and not crying :smoke

 

Remember New Wind? He (along with deram, but Newwy was no where near as bad as deram) talked up Kessler's chances over JC for probably 2 years. Then 1 month out from the fight he goes MIA and registers under a new username and makes no mention of his formerself. It really beats me why people do that. It's a message board ffs. I was wrong on that fight, very wrong in fact, but at least I could admit it afterwards instead of starting up a new account here, ect.

...

As for who takes this one...well, Joe will be just too busy for Popkins, and he'll outwork him and probably stop him late in the fight. :yep

 

Joe will win with a late stoppage.

Hopkins was a great champion but Joe's the man at the moment.

 

I reckon Calzaghe. And TBH I think Kessler would probably beat BHop too.
