Thanks for the video and yal are right this is the best fighter Hopkins has faced since Jones. Alos it is probably the best Hopkins ever faced. But I think Calzaghe is going to beat him. Even people at my babershop thinks so and were all black. So yes Hopkins is in for a long night. To bad I have to go to the Jay-z concert that day or I would have been at the fight
Calzaghe is a very good fighter. But I don't see why fans are impressed by this vid. Enzo's meeting his punches half way (adding a lot to the impression of speed and power)... Calzaghe's is flat footed and they don't include anything to make him defensively aware. Not a very good mitt session in my opinion. The kind of mitt work that look nice to the untrained eye but that will give you bad habits.
He looks very sharp no doubt. We may even see an improved version of Calzaghe at 175 will be interesting to see how the step in weight favours him.
Everyone looks good doing mitt work. What really was a problem to me is that there's not head movement, his timing looks off (he was missing the cue to go for the body), he's flatfooted and isn't keeping his hands up.
Thanks for the clip, you could tell Joe was letting up a little on his dad, because Enzo's hands looked like they were hurting at the end of the video, Cali looks a lot bigger, and i think he might even stop the 43 yr old Hopkins, i think the old man is going to have a long nite next week:tired
He does look quick, but I also noticed Enzo was meeting him halfway on a lot of those punches. Lots of guys look like P4P champs when no one is hitting back. Still, I am leaning towards a win by Joe here, but I wont bet on it and I certainly wont ever count Hopkins out of this fight unless the ref does!
Cali is 7 years younger, faster, better stamina, higher workrate, and will be the bigger, stronger man in the ring, Hops dosen't have the power to hurt Cali either, JC has a chin of iron, That ****ing old fart Hops is going to his own execution on the 19th:yep
