Just seen the trailer http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=SJKW0p03_KA&feature=related Looks pretty good, cant wait for the fight :bbb
That trailer was a bit over the top, especially the small speeded up sequence. To claim that Calzaghe "destroyed" Kessler was pushing it a bit too far as well.
Nobody gets destroyed in this one, it's got stinkfest written all over it. Hopkins is a master at neutralising opponents, whilst Calzaghe is a master at working opponents out. Joe will end up out neutralising the neutraliser.
I agree it wont be a destruction either way but I still think Hopkins will outpoint Joe. It will be terrible for boxing if Joe wins, an overated WBO boy from a needless division.
I agree. Two loses to lazy arse Taylor and a win over a stone overweight Winky isn't much form. The Tarver win was very impressive, but how focused was Tarver on the fight as he was filming Rocky 6 at the time IIRC?
Thats fair enough, hardly as bad as Lewis filming instead of training for Rahman. A good win for Hopkins then?
This would have been even better had it happened in 2002. Obviously Hopkins felt that a bout against a blown up Jnr Middle Carl Daniels was of far more importance.
I just wish Calzaghe would have stepped up and faced a credible opponent. I can not blame him going fror the money though.
Im looking forward to that. Providing all goes well and Clinton brings his A game he should outwork that stupid scrub to a wide UD. Tarvers a clown. He has no class and his mouth is always writing a cheque that his ass cant cash. Woods by HUMILIATION! :rasta
