    The only thing Ward has in common with b-hop is being g dirty.

    Hops knows EVERY TRICK IN THE BOOK, the only thing Ward has on his side if youth.

    Prime for prime Joe beats Ward
    B-hop beats Ward too

    up to round 5 Bernard was outskilling joe then he started to gass.

    Ward does it for 12 rounds.

    In all honesty though joe would run in fear from the prospect of facing Ward.

    WRONG!!:-( Joe figured him out just like he figured out The Dane.

    Ward does what exactly for 12 rounds? Hold, headbutt, elbow?

    Bika was SCHOOLED by Joe
    Bika ran Ward out of the ring!

    if I#m wrong can you tell me what Joe worked out? you cant, can you?

    So yeah Joe never worked Bernard out, he just upped his ineffective output fro the remainder of the fight once he saw Hops was slowing, same as with Kessler when Mikkels hand went.

    I expect Calzaghe could come back and beat both, but I think he is happy in retirement and will stay retired.
    The SMW division is not looking strong at the moment and if Calzaghe came out of retirement and beat those two, the division would look worse than ever.

    If the speed and chin is still there, then they don't have a chance.

    Without the speed, Joe would be in trouble.

    Yep..he was also right when he said Octavio Lara was the best fighter he ever seen or trained:rofl

    Great fighters do great things....

    The Welsh Rabbit never did anything close to being great.
    He "beat" Hopkins...but...Jermain Taylor did that TWICE.

    He beat RJJ only after he was KNOCKED COLD by 2 guys Joe wouldn't go near.
