Mayweather exposes Hatton: Next up, Hopkins shall expose Calzaghe!

Calzaghe wins 95 %, 48 % by decision, 46 by KO/TKO due to whatever.
Hopkins wins 5 %, 3 % by decision, 2 % due to cuts.

 

I ain't no sissy communist like them though.:smoke

 

fanboy.
group delusions.
drugs.

kinda things that sane people associate with the golota gimps.

 

Dude, anyone who says Cal is no. 1 p4p is literally ten times more delusional than a Golota fan. On MUCH heavier drugs, and is completely a fanboy (probably only watches boxing for Joe).

He's good, sure. But why lie to yourselves? (those Joe fans)

I don't see Golota fans saying he's top five in the world at heavy, or anything. (at least, I hope and am glad I don't).

 

I feel the same way about Chris Byrd

 

If they did, I could turn out to be a rich man based on their million to one odds in favor of Calz. I just don't understand how you can disregard Bhop as having no chance against Calz. Joe idolizes the man for a reason...

 

Its tough to tell, but I would love for BHop to do it.

 

I can see the first 3/4 rounds being a little cagey but with Hopkins being a notoriously slow starter I can see Calzaghe taking these purely on output - without getting B-Hop in any real trouble. After that Joe may find less success but I think B-Hop will also struggle to put Joe under any real pressure.

Taylor beat Hopkins as he was the more athletic fighter and was able to make openings where B-Hop stuck to his game plan and fought a good fight. I can see Calzaghe using the same strategy as JT but Calzaghe is a much better boxer the Taylor and should be able land more clean punches (and more punches full stop) than JT did.

No KO for me (cant really see there being a KD at all) but would expect Joe to take the first and last rounds with maybe B-Hop taking some in the middle.

 

168 a toss up? Yeah, I can see that. PBF at 154 looked like he was roided up, I wonder what he would look like at 168.....:?

 

This fight I am on the fence about. Calzaghe thorws a lot of punches and he can overwhelm you with his speed and workrate, Bernard has some problems with fighters with fast hands, so I can see Calzaghe pulling a decision against B-Hop.
Only thing is I dont think bernard has enough pop 2 keep calzaghe off him. I would favor Roy jones more to beat him IMO. RJ has faster hands than Bernard and hits harder and has a better shot IMO.

But, Bernard is also undefeated against southpaws, and if there is a weakness in your game that bernard thinks he can exploit he will do it. I look for Bernard to do a lot of grabbing, all the lil tactics that a vet will use to get inside your head, I can see Bernard winning that way.

Hence, I dont know yet. I will make a pick closer to fight night

 

At this point I think Roy gets absolutely destroyed by Calzaghe.

 

:rofl

mayweather doesn't go more than 3. when joe sits on his punches his opponent knows about it, just ask eubank.
