    What does Cazlaghe bring to the fight that hopkins hasnt seen??? Cazalghe isnt the best fighter that Hopkins has faced. He isnt the fastest, he isnt the biggest puncher, he isnt the first southpaw, he isnt the first volume puncher. On the other hand Joe has never faced a fighter like Hopkins. Hopkins isnt a slick boxer like Eubank was in his prime...Not the Eubank that Joe faced by the way...He isnt a slow plodder like Lacy and Kessler. Im not even going to go any farther into Joe Resume cuz that is really about it. Hopkins will take what Joe gives him and he is good enough to win doing that. Those other guys that Joe faced werent. Lacy and Kessler couldnt box with Joe, and Hopkins can, if Joe wants to bang Hopkins can so that as well.

    I just dont think that many of you guy really understand how good Hopkins is.

    Now Im not saying that Joe is a no hoper in this fight. Hopkins is 40 something, What Im saying is if the fight is going to be easy for someone it isnt going to be Joe. If he wins it will be the toughest hardest fought battle of his career.
