Calzaghe: Hopkins, Who Have You Beaten?

:good Pure confidence.

 

:rofl I honestly believe that these two hate eachother

 

Hopkins said he could name 5 Great fighters:

Roy Jones at Middle - He lost
Winky Wright - Was/Is not Great at 170lbs
Jermain Taylor - Lost twice and Taylor aint Great
Oscar Delahoya - Was not Great at that weight
Felix Trinidad - Was not Great at Middleweight


Sucks for Bernard atsch

 

i agree why does BHOP keep quoting all those names? the only TRUE MW who was natural as him at that weight was taylor and he lost!
everyone else was either fighting above there natural weight. Only tarver was well just weird on the night

 

both of these guys are legends period..... i dunno why there trying to belittle each other for the sake of hyping the fight

 

Tryign to wind up their opponent. All in the game

 

Absolutely, trying to trash him, but watch, he'll go TOOTH AND NAIL with a 43year old guy clearly NOT IN PRIME and proclaim Calslappy as the "Greatest"

Just be happy your fighters (i.e., Hatton, Calslappy) are FINALLY fighting the BIG fights..atsch

 

He talked himself a legend, yes. On paper he's not done anything to be a legend.

Duran, Leonard. Those are what I call legends.

Unfortunately Hopkins IS regarded as a legend as well:-( :nono

 

Yes! FINALLY Hopkins stepped up to the plate. About time.

 

Looks Like Joe Is Winning The Mental Fight.
He Really Looks Ready.

 

I can't wait for this fight. Joe's fans are in for a shock when they find out that this isn't Jeff Lacy he is dealing with. Both are great fighters and this one is gonna be close.

You guys that think Calzaghe is gonna thrash Hopkins are delusional.

 

"in your dreams baby" -calzaghe

 

Joe is brimming with confidence though, almost arrogant. Both these guys are arrogant but when you have skill like that to back it up I guess it is ok.

Calzaghe "You lost to Roy Jones, Jermain Taylor (has a disgusted look on his face as if he is ashamed of Hopkins)"

Hopkins "Name 1 great fighter, go ahead and look stupid in front of them."

 

Bernard's credible wins are against Segundo Mercado (IBF Championship, KO 7 and even the draw under terrible pressure in Equador is worthy), former champ John David Jackson (TKO 7), Joe Lipsey ( TKO 4), Glen Johnson ( TKO 11 when he was undefeated and in the best shape ever), former LMW champ Simon Brown ( KO 6), Robert Allen twice ( TKO 7 and UD12), Syd Vanderpool, Antwun Echols twice ( UD12 and TKO 10), Keith Homes ( WBC Championship), Felix Trinidad (TKO12), former LMW Champ Carl Daniels, former 3 time WBA Champ William Joppy, Oscar De La Hoya, Howard Eastman - and his 3 losses given reason for credit, RJJ ( 116-112 scores against prime Jones), Taylor twice ( SD and UD 115-113 scores)... Cal doesn't have a resume to question Bernard's opposition, he's just tryin to play mind games and get ahead of himself, end of story.
