    What a ******ed thread Farmboxer. You are really off your rocker with all this propaganda BS.

    ESPN scored it for Hopkins and the Associated Press had it 114-113 for Hopkins as well.

    It was a very close fight that could have gone either way.

    COMPUBOX NUMBERS:
    Total punches:
    CALZAGHE: 232/707 33%
    HOPKINS: 127/468 27%


    Power caterogry:
    CALZAGHE: 187/483 39%!!!!
    HOPKINS: 116/375

    The above from another post at ESB. Fight not close at all. Emanuel Steward had it for Calzaghe, the commentators and ever Harold Lederman. I can see the punches, so don't try to fool me. Points for holding?

    Even Harold Lederman? So.

    Hopkins landed the better shots. I don't think people are wrong for thinking Calzaghe won, but saying it was without doubt is crazy. What can he brag about. Slapping a 43 year old that dropped him?

    I suggest you take another look at the flash knockdown, landed a right hand then push. Calzaghe was not hurt at all, Hopkins knew that also.

    I suggest you listen to the post fight interview. Calzaghe admitted to being hurt when he was dropped.

    I pretty much agree, however Joe Didn't land very many clean hard shots. Some were sloppy looking slaps. Bernard looked like he had Joe hurt about four different times during the fight. I thought Joe won but I could see how someone else might've reached another conclusion. I do think the 116-111 was as off as much as the 114-113 for Hopkins but if you like slaps I guess Joe took 9 rounds. Many rounds were close. Joe won seven rounds, eight tops.
    The 115-112 score card was the best one IMO.
