Hopkin's mind games have worked on JC whether people want to admit it or not. Every interview JC talks about how ugly hopkins is and how he is mary poppins and how he is lookin to fight pavlik at 160 and how he is ignorant for throwing the race card and blah blah. Everything that has any importance on the 19th JC has not spoken about because he is worried about everything Hopkins has said. Hopkins looks AWESOME and I don't remember the last time he ran out of gas by the 5th rd?? He trains to go 15 rds, stamina has never been an issue for him. Difference between Taylor and JC's "pressure" is that Hopkins respected Taylor's power, something he won't do against JC.
stamina hasn't been an issue cause he fought two guys at LWH that have slow-mo workrates compared to calzaghe. hopkins looks very top heavy, which means either he will not be able to keep up with calzaghe punchwise, or his legs will tire and he will be essentially a sitting-quack. calzaghe never looks ripped, he is more of a natural athlete and has trained for stamina, as I said and REMEMBER, WILL BE THE KEY in this one.
Keep telling yourself that. Hopkins is an ass who had trouble with little guys like DLH and Winky. Who cares if he is a bit bigger than Calzaghe? This isn't a body building contest. This should be a one sided beat down with Hopkins getting the whipping he deserves.
