    Why do all Calzaghe fans attack Hopkins in an attempt to defend their fighter? Surely coming up with a structured debate as to why that person is wrong about Calzaghe would be better.

    The more and more poeple complain about it, the more people are getting bored... the result is ALWAYS the same anyway, the massive majority scored the fight for Calzaghe.

    I think Oscar faked it to spare himself from a serious beat down.

    Wow, I seem to have struck a nerve here!! :lol:

    I'm not attacking Hopkins, I just want to know what the opinion of all these Hopkins fans claiming Calzaghe slaps is of the Hopkins body KO shot of DLH? :hey

    Sooo...was it a fullblooded Hopkins blow, or was it a light tap/brush?

    Why would you have "struck a nerve"? It's not as if I'm Hopkins, I'm a fan of boxing. It's just something I've noticed. Calzaghe zealots tend to go on the attcak rather than give rational reasons as to why the other party is wrong.

  9. Is it saying something that the average percentage of every poll seems to be about 78% in favour of joe each time?

    irrespective of how many voted - just under 80% feel Joe won. Almost everyone who voted Bhop are known critics of Calzaghe.

    Rounds were close, the fight wasn't.
