    Well if Hopkins believe in constancy, he should look his own face after the Calzague's fight.

    He looked demolish after the fight.

    And your point is that Hopkins heart is better than Pascal's heart?

    Cause last time I check, Pascal believe in his heart he won the fight as well.

    And talking about heart, just finished to watch Calzague/Hopkins fight. Hopkins is down to anything to win a fight, if you can hit a low blow while the ref can see it, if you can tell the world you won against Calzague well, you can try to say there was a robbery in Canada cause cheating and lying is no problem for an ex con.

    Hopkins is down to anything, you can drink as much as you want his speech but I don't buy.

    His interview in Espn is priceless, such a drastic change of attitude.

    I beleive I won 7 rounds, LMAO, IT'S A DRAW IF YOU KNOW HOW TO COUNT.

    ok. next time you have a stomach upset treat it your self, just go with your own judgement. dont bother going to someone who probably knows more than you, or at the very least, get a second opinion.

    i heard that interview, and if you take it into context, he didnt say how many rounds he thought would be a draw i.e. 10-10 rounds, or even the rounds he got knocked down in, he was winning one could have been a 10-9 which is how one of the judges scored it i think.

    also, your not taking into account the fact that hopkins felt he was hit behind the head for the first knockdown, hence in his mind and in the mind of others it shouldnt have been counted as a kd

    :nut:lol: We're talking about a fight here not some bloody medical condition.

    I've watched the fight twice, once live and once after, and scored it for Calzaghe both times.

    And I've read many posts about it on here as well. I just don't see how Hopkins did enough to win.

    LMAO did Calzague lost the round 10-9 against Hopkins when he got knockdown? Cause he was winning the round as well?

    See? CONSTANCY

    If you got knockdown, he must beat the **** out of hell of someone to get a 10-9?

    The round was close as **** and all the power shot were landed by Pascal. Hopkins has been the agressor but get cought with a hard right hand in that round, a hard counter left hook and another big left...

    You don't get a 10-9 because your only the agressor, if yes WELL get back in the futur and pls score properly Calzague/Hopkins round 1. Cause Hopkins deserved a 10-9 in that round...

    Let's all the change the rule, so the old man would have a better chance to win? Do we agree?

    I watched it twice, once without commentary and no, I don't think differently. It was an ugly, close win by Calzaghe, but Hopkins was outworked, outlanded, certainly didn't impose any kind of gameplan, looked confused at times and certainly exhausted in the late rounds.

    firstly, one of the wbc judges GAVE that round a 10-9 to pascal. secondly, calzaghe didnt land a punch on hopkins in the first round so that was a clear 10-8.

    i didnt score pascal hopkins round 1 a 10-9 i scored it a 10-8 for pascal.

    However, if you think hopkins calzaghe round 1 was anything like hopkins pascal round 1 (where there was an illegitamate knock down) then in my mind something is really skewing how you see the rounds, or making you biased or something, to even hint they were the same.

    and at the end of the day, the first round should have been a 10-9 to hopkins because the knockdown was not legal, it was a punch behind the ear which is not legal in boxing, and other than the illegal knockdown it was a hopkins round, so effectively hopkins lost three points on two of the judges cards in that round, and two points ofn the others.

    lets not forget the amount of times pascal was warned for striking hopkins repeatedly behind the head, and other than light warnings, the ref took no action, which was not fair at all.

    but look its good there will be a rematch so they can both settle this score.

    First of all, I'm a boxing fan.

    Second, you still think I'm a Calzague fan? Well maybe it's why I saw all Hopkins fight in the decade and only one of Calzague. More groupie than that you die right?

    Third, he looked totally confused in the 3 or 4 last rounds, looked exhausted and ya he was demolished.

    I don't have the fight, so I can't pull a picture of it, but feel free to go check Buffer before he says the score. If you too lazy, I'm sure someone can place a picture of Hopkins attitude just after the belt.

    HE SAYS FINALLY ITS OVER' I DONT HAVE TO FAKE LOW BLOWS ANYMORE YALL,

    I love Hopkins intelligence in the ring, I love watch him boxing but if you think Hopkins was not demolish after that fight, maybe you could start your own church with Hopkins.

    Because your a believer

    Hopkins cought Calzague cleaner.

    But Calzague's pace killed Hopkins spirit in that fight, I'm not saying forever, Hopkins is a well known warrior.

    Did you see him crying for a rematch afterwards? Ya he cried but a rematch? no

    I ain't no english, maybe demolished is too much but he was certainly very unhappy with his performance like Pascal used to be in december 18th. Did he certainly lose? No but he paled...

    And I don't know what's your point with Canada and America doesnt have alot of good fighters? Is it really an argument?

    Cause one in this topic already said I'm a Calzague groupie when I just watched him against Hopkins. I watched every single fight of Hopkins since Tito and I had him winning against Calzague 114-113. Your a groupie whatever you say against Hopkins even it's a fact? Well I'm a groupie then and kind a proud of...

    Realizing that many people rather judge than bring facts here.

    It's easier, you don't even need to watch the fight. You don't even need to search for info...

    Constancy is so hard to get here
