Isnt BHOP doing the Teddy Atlas system to prepare for this fight?

Determinism is picking Calzaghe.

 

Do people really buy that ****? Anyway, I didn't think Atlas could count to seven.

 

My gut feeling says hopkins will nick it, but my gut feeling is never right

 

zelenoff is going for calzaghe
hartley hopkins

 

Are Zelenoff's predictions as good as his boxing?

 

What is Teddy Atlas' prediction? :think

:nut

 

not sure its the first prediction of his ive heard

 

I'll wait for Atlas to tell us who's gonna win, then it's the house, the wife and the kids on the other guy. Man, I could walk away with hundreds!

 

If I remember correctly Duke McKenzie was the only one who went for Hopkins, out of about twenty-odd people asked. There was a more even split among the magazines reporters (three out of the eight/nine went for Hopkins).

Richie Woodhall! I hope he predicts fight results better than he reads the fight itself. This is the guy who had Gavin Rees only one round behind against Kotelnik, even though a blind chimp could see that he had been beat silly for the preceeding eight rounds ("great body shots by Rees" shouted Woodhall every 30 seconds, as the welshman slapped his opponent on the hips and elbows).

Not that I have much respect for McKenzie either. Actually when I saw that he was the ONE predicting a Hopkins win I thought "Calzaghe's definetly gonna win now".

 

Now those two guys know the sport. That is saying a lot.

 

There are few Americans picking Hopkins. Well...there are more americans thinking Hop won't win than there are that think he will.

 

If you think he is the underdog, you think he will lose.
