    BHOP underestimated Calzaghe and the fight went in to the middle rounds you could see that he was becoming uncomfortable with the pressure and intensity of the fight. BHOP was never the aggressor in one round of the fight but I do conceded that he landed most of the cleanest punches in that fight.

    There is only so far you can go throwing the head-butt disguised as a right hand lead before someone as good as Calzaghe figures you out outworks you to a decision.
