I want Calzaghe to win, and Hopkins is a twat for saying what he did, but in that video, Calzaghe is owned. Hope it doesn't play a part in the fight....Calzaghe looked a bit silly. Rule number 1 of arguing, never argue with an idiot (Hopkins), he will bring you down to his level and beat you on experience.
I like both but have ALWAYS felt that calzaghe would beat hopkins no matter when they fought but especially now. If joe say what hop said except used the term `black boy` you would have all sorts of ****s on his case. Hopkins has always had a big mouth & has in the past used it to avoid fights so I think joe is doing the only think possible to get hopkins in the ring & dont be suprised if it still doesnt work. I dont usually root against either fighter but Im with the better fighter in this 1.... calzaghe. I hope he shows this old guy that white boys can fight very well & I think he will. C`MON JOE, GET INTO THAT ***** HOPKINS, MAKE HIM BLEED FROM THE INSIDE OUT.
I already explained it to you dimwit: This content is protected Everyone present knew that and so did Joe and so did Bernard. As I said, the antics were for dimwits like you (black dimwits and white dimwits both). (Ali was the genius who invented the idea and first used it to get a fight with Liston. It's been around ever since.) It's all about the $$$$$$$$$$$$$... and for that you need interest, hence the antics. (No need to thank me. If you don't get it, just read the post over and over till it penetrates your thick wooden skull)
You are undoubtedly the most moronic poster around these boards at the moment. It has been a long time since I've seen such bias and unfounded outbursts. Hell, even Blocky would come down to earth every once in a while and prove that he actually knew what he was talking about. Listen, you've got to give reasons for your sentiments, otherwise there is no point in having a discussion. As it stands right now, you are not convincing anyone that B-Hop is the superior boxer, you are just being a loud-mouthed dick.
Can you even read or do you just read the first lines of posts you ansewr? As a BHop fan (and even if I wasn't) I have no problems with what the man said. I posted that on the day he said it (before you were a member here) See: http://www.eastsideboxing.com/forum/showthread.php?p=873831#post873831 (Remember, I told you to read the post again and again till you understand it.)
Ok then. Let's do a little text-analysis: Actual points: 1. Joe slaps - I agree, but that is besides the point. What you are trying to imply is that because he slaps, he is inferior - which he is not. His slaps are heavy enough to rock the best from SMW. Don't forget that your guy is a MW originally. And that JC punches often. 2. Joe is stationary - Which is ludicrous. Although Joe is happy to trade punches with people, he is by no means stationary, and is quite capable of employing evasive manoeuvers. Fast forward to 80 secs., I think it speaks for itself.

Now, this does not offend me, as it is so blatantly stupid. Rather, it annoys me like hell that an otherwise fine forum such as this one can be totally disrupted by morons, who are more interested in vocalizing their (apparently) unfounded opinions and contempt for sportsmen that they don't know, than actually debating the matter in a civilized manner.

I agree that Calzaghe needs B-Hop more than B-Hop needs Cal. JC is going for fame and money fights by now. He does need an american ATG on his resume. I just don't think that B-Hop would be able to beat Calzaghe at this point in his career. As far as the namecalling goes - **** that.
Calzaghe has more title defenses, hopkins only has belts at middleweight unless you include IBO which he won at LH and how does that make him an ATG and Joe not one? The best fighter Hopkins fought (RJJ) beat him and all the other top fighters he fought were blown up welterweights.
