I rewatched Hopkins - Calzaghe....

yeah - 9:3(+1) is pretty much the score I invariably get.

Have scored it wider to Joe, bit closer but in Joe's favour still, but that's the one I'm most happier with, same rounds as well I think.

p.s. - I love the fight, probably my favourite fight of all time.

 

lol i could never bring myself to watch that again. i applaud your determination.

i had calzaghe by 2 pts at the time.

 

Even people who self harm would back away from that one.

 

That's a bit wide. I had it even, believe it or not, with Hopkins taking 5 rounds (3 out of the first 5, 10 and another one if I remember correctly), Calzaghe taking 6 and one even. I've watched this fight several times, and the first couple I had it for Calzaghe by a couple of rounds, but I think if you look carefully B-Hop lands more solid and clean punches on the inside, and his straight rights were the only real punches of the fight. It's a close fight, though, and I can understand why you might disagree.

 

I've got no problem with cards that have Calzaghe winning, but 116-111 is a touch wide. You score it that way, and you are giving a whole lot of credit for ineffective aggression.

 

I can't put myself through that again, but the couple times I had watched it I had Joe 115-112, give or take a round.

 

Have you only seen that fight and Taylor vs Spinks? Because that is about the only fight I think it was better than :deal

 

had calzaghe winning by one round.

 

He's also seen Bundrage - Brewer. :dead

 

I had it 7-5 to Calzaghe, with the KD and 10-8 round 114-113.

Rounds 1,2,3,4,10 to B-Hop, 5,6,7,8,9,11,12 to JC.

 

had hopkins by one point

 

I had it 114-113 for Hopkins. 6rds each with one KD for B-Hop. It was a very close fight with some rounds that were hard to score, 114-113 for Calzaghe might be ok too, depending on how you score fights. I value quality over quantity of punches thrown. Bottom line is, the fight could've gone either way, and there should've been a rematch.

 

It's like ****ing groundhog day on here.

 

would have had joe by 1 or 2 rounds not 4 or 5
