Calzaghe would have KO'd Hopkins in 13, 14 or 15

That is an outrageous statement

 

weeeeeellll I am quite drunk right now

 

i cant believe i never seen this fight.

 

Good lad. starting the New years eve festivities early? I was referring more to the British comment the fella made.

 

lol peter tobin?! hes atually our number one serial killer here in margate too.. found a couple a three bodies buried in his old garden during the summer.

definatley one of the best serial killers in reent years

 

if hopkins wasn't allowed to take his 5 minute unofficial breaks, calzaghe could have overwhelmed him and the ref might have had to step in even before 12 rounds were up, let alone after 15 rounds. hopkins was completly exhausted towards the end of the fight.

 

So you're not saying he would have KO'd him, but that Hopkins would have gotten so tired in another 3 rounds that he would have collapsed?

 

i've never said anything about a ko, but a tko was very possible. he may have been too tired to defend himself properly, and the ref possibly would have to step in. calzaghe's workrate is his biggest asset, look what hopkins did to pavlik in his next fight when he could dictate the pace.

 

Sorry I was replying to the thread starter.

Ya i've always said Hopkins lost that fight because at his age he just cannot handle somebody like Calzaghe who will force him to work that hard.

 

Joke thread.

I do think Joe would have won a clearer decision though.

 

lol
