    If it hurts you it's a shame, because it's just the purest bulll****. These guys deal with the razor's edge but you can't see any circumstances in which Hopkins can win without it meaning your boy is "overated". It's just...madness.

    What, you got us tickets?

    Not madness, McGrain. Being pragmatic. Good Scottish quality, that...:yep

    Oh...I forgot...I wasn't allowed to say I had any but a fleeting link with Scotland. :!:

    Thanks; won't be around though.

    You're going to have to let this go sooner or later.

    I think Calzaghe will win on points but im not going to rule out a Lewis/Holyfield style draw

    Adelaide Byrd ( Calzaghe 119-107 Lacy), Chuck Giampa ( Calzaghe 119-109 Brewer, Taylor 115-113 Hopkins ( 2nd fight)) plus Joe Cortez - bad news for Hopkins.

    So...the weigh in...both came in at 173.

    No incidents.

    Thoughts?
