    He didn't have much time for Sweet Pea's slapping against Julio Cesar Vasquez, but it seems he does for Joe's.....

    After a while, it was just the volume and accuracy. B-Hop just didn't do enough, often enough, emphatically enough. And I certainly saw Calzaghe drill him more times than the other way.

    It ain't easy looking good against Hopkins. He's crafty and he's certainly dirty but there is no doubt in my mind that Calzaghe overcame his spoiler tactics and prevailed.

    Hopkins is 43 years old

    Volume doesnt mean anything if your not landing cleanly


    he landed the sharper cleaner punches and knocked joe down

    Unlike your posts, volume did mean something in this fight.

    Not even that close.

    Well, judging by this thread you'll score it a Pavlik KO even if it goes the distance.

    Well, if you're going to award him rounds for not throwing a punch anyway then i'm sure he will.
