    From rounds 4 to 12 Hopkins could not handle Joe's in and out style that he applied after adjusting. Joe's diversity showed the world who was the better boxer and he actually gave overhyped bernard a schooling in boxing. In fact bernard was so desperate that he reverted to what he usually does. and that is cheating.

    By outclassed, you must mean schooled in terms of boxing technique. I'd have to disagree since if a defensive fighter outclasses his opponent he should win the fight every time... Right? Bernard may have made Calzaghe look bad, but he didn't outclass him in that sense.

    Joe moving in and out...l:rofl:rofl:rofl and missing punches and getting countered doing so....He stopped that **** early the **** on when he got put on his ass. Just bhop setting up in counter punch position made Calzaghe think twice and a third time about opening up.

    No, Joe was not outclassed. One can not outclass anybody in a clearly losing effort.
