Yeah just the like the person who changes their scorecards week after week and cant answer how they score rounds.
Not bias of course, especially when you look at the facts This content is protected 1. Calzaghe landed more than 100 punches than Hopkins throughout the fight. 2. Contrary to what people want to believe, Calzaghe also made Hopkins miss more 3. All round punch percentages, Calzaghe finished ahead of Hopkins 4. Calzaghe outlanded Hopkins in every round 5. A Byrd who scored for Hopkins it appears has a history for bad scorecards. Type in Adalaide Byrd in Google and see what comes up for yourself, still here are some little things for you to look at a. A Byrd was the only judge out of the 3 scoring judges that had Mack ahead against Cloud b. The K Pavlik - A Lopez fight was scored 98-92, 99-91 by the other 2 judges, A Byrd scored it 95-95 c. A Byrd was one of the judges that had Morales a 4 point loser against Maidana d. In the S Aydin vs S Ouali fight, the other 2 judges scored clearly for Aydin. Byrd scored for Ouali e. The J Almaraz/C Tyler fight was scored a Maj-Dec all because of one judge, guess which? A Byrd f. The A DeMarco/J Reyes fight was a SD. Guess who the odd judge out was? A Byrd. g. The R Torres - M Arnaoutis fight was a close fight, a point either way to 2 judges but a wide result scored by Byrd h. In the A Pryor Jr/D Stanislavjevic SD, guess who the odd judge out was? You guessed it... A Byrd i. The W Ferguson/J Lopez SD, guess who the odd judge out was? You guessed it... A Byrd I think thats enough for you to get the picture with Byrd. Remember the other 2 judges scored clearly for Calzaghe 6. Calzaghe beat Hopkins in America, at a new weight with 3 American judges and Cortez as ref. 7. Calzaghe scored the single highest score card against Hopkins ever 116-111. 8. The 2 judges that scored for Calzaghe agreed on 9 of the rounds 9. Calzaghe landed more on Hopkins than anyone ever. Now I know there will be a flood of people coming on here noting Hopkins scoring a flash KD in the first round, and I agree that Hopkins did win a few rounds even when he didnt land as often, but people are mad if they think Calzaghe won on workrate, Calzaghe won because he was able to land his left more often than Hopkins could land his right. Calzaghe finished the stronger and took away the moments Hopkins likes down the stretch. Other thoughts, If Hopkins thought he was winning, do you think he would have been looking for time out and would bother trying to get points deducted off of Calzaghe, of course he wouldnt, Hopkins knew he was losing. Remember at the time that people were calling for Hopkins to retire because of how Calzaghe was bullying Hopkins around. If Hopkins had of retired hardly anybody would say they think Hopkins won and would say Calzaghe beat a shot Hopkins, because Hopkins has gone on to have success, some fools try and rewrite history
What the hell is Bailey doing in the Classic Forum? Do trolls now have "Calzaghe detectors" that lead them outwith the General?? At least he is still copying and pasting the same overlong, biased, unconvincing, irrelevant, boring posts he regularly inflicts on the General masses. He's consistent, if nothing else.
Didnt think you could see my posts with me on your ignore list atsch, whoops. Where have I trolled? Where have I been bias? I bet you also pull a duck in the classic forum. If you make comments you should be able to back them up. This will be good
You're not on my ignore list, never have been, it's only brazen racists like Headgiver I blank. You are very, very biased and very, very stupid, but as far as I can tell you're not outright scum like that guy. There's nothing sinister about someone who was brought up without an open mind. Anyway, in answer to your post: This is the Classic. No way in this world would I deal my credibility here the fatal blow of being seen trading insults with a complete GF embarrassment like you. No offence man. :good

And yes Hopkins was at his best at 43. He went from being a fighter who had been in a competetive fight with Howard Eastman and lost to Taylor, into a fighter who schooled and embarrassed everyone he thought except Joe Calzaghe.
