    The Hopkins fans are making excuses for the inevitable already I see.

    :lol:

    Calzaghe as boxer much more pleasing on the eye than Hopkins. I like him better as a man, and I would like to see Calzaghe fight other fighters around the weight and I am not too botherd about seeing Hopkins fight anybody.

    However, I have nothing against Hopkins and wish him no harm. :good

    It will be a " haters Re-run excuse "
    Age.Bull**** stoppage...bad call,etc,etc..but of course Joe was almost 34 and about 6 years older than Lacy, while adding one years difference here, makes it 7 between Joe and Bernerd..so Joes' 6 year seniority to Lacy was no factor, but add one year more between Joe and nerd, makes a world of difference...IF, and I say IF Joe wins, I will not accept age as a factor, because the Joe haters would not allow the same excuse if lacy had won...whoever wins, WINS, and I believe neither one of these 2 are less than grade A material...but there is always the homefield advantage for Hoppy, which Joe has enjoyed in the past..:hi:

    Who do I think would win?

    Calzaghe pretty comfortably tbh.

    I've entertained the notion repeatedly.

    In the unlikely event that Calzaghe does win, I will be the first to admit I was wrong and I will give him his due credit!

    And under NO CIRCUMSTANCES will I try and I discredit the victory by bringing age into the equation. If Calzaghe does win, it has nothing to do with Hopkins' age and EVERYTHING to do with Joe being the better man.

    That said, Calzaghe is a sack of **** who shall inevitablly be taken to school by Hopkins!

    :good

    I'd be cheering for Roy too but I also truly believe that the Roy that faced Tito (the mentally strong Roy that is) with the confidense and determination could still beat JC. :yep
