    Although I believe Cazaghe won their fight eight rounds to four, there seem to be a lot of people on this board that actually believe Hopkins won.:patsch

    However, there should be no doubt that if the fight had been 15 rounds, Calzaghe would have stopped Hopkins in rounds 13 to 15.

    By the end of the fight Calzaghe with his tremendous stamina was fresh and fighting at a strong pace. Hopkins was very tired and had spent rounds 9 to 12 pretending to be fouled, rolling around on the canvas, and looking for breaks to catch his wind.

    Calzaghe would have stepped it up after round 12. Given his condition at the end of 12, Hopkins would not have made it to the end of 15.

    Watch the fight again. You are in denial, if you believe Hopkins would have made it through 15. He was completely exhausted at the bell for 12.
    Calzaghe's pace was too much for him.

    Silly post. This picture means nothing. Watch the actual fight again. Hopkins was acting like a tired ***** at the end.

    Well that too , his hands couldnt cope

    Calz won , he did exactly the right thing , he knew he couldn't match Bhop for "skills" so he just tried to overwhelm him , which he kinda did and deserved his win but he was glad to hear the bell !

    Who did Calzaghe KO exactly to KO none other than Hopkins who he was hardly able to land on properly in that fight?

    Calzaghe has decent power but it wasn't good enough to wobble/rock RJJ you think he would have KO'd Hopkins?

    It's either you're yet another desperate British fan trying to make Calzaghe look like Tyson in power being as delusional and drunk as you may be or you're a troll.

    Give over. Hopkins is a defensive master-mind with an iron jaw, and Calzaghe has the power of 4 harnessed children.

    Find the faked low blow pictures and we can talk. Joe is getting dragged away from Hopkins and almost tripping over Cortez's leg, do you want him to smile?
