    I actually felt sorry for him then. I diddn't want to see a legend go out like that. It was embarassing.

    bhop was a blantant cheat in round 10, as he was tired he was blowing hard in rounds 8,9 and in the corner before round 10 he was tired. he wanted a 5 mins rest to give himself enough energy for the rounds 11,12

    Bhop please do not think fans who admire you fall for these tricks

    Its fair game... both guys used dirty tactics... Bernard hit on the break, used his head a lot.. Calzaghe hit low a couple of times, turned his back on 3 occasions to avoid getting hit (round 2 with 1:08 to go, round 4 with 1:48 to go, and round 11 with 1:48 to go).

    Its part of the game.

    No, that's just his definition of "throwback", whatever that means. He's very good in making people believe the crap he talks. In reality, Hopkins has a throw-up style.:pukke

    Most of you miss an obvious point. In caps: HE'S 43 YEARS OLD. Any chance to take a break should be used by a smart fighter. Nothing shameful in that, it's smart tactics for an old guy.

    bhop thought he steamroll joe inside, but joe is VERY underestimated inside he gave bhop and i think nullified bhops advantage inside as he gave as good as he got
