    1. He wasn't anything close to tired.

    2. He was fighting 4 weight classes above his best.

    Hopkins is 90 years old and only throws 5 punches a round. And Kessler is so ****in predictable it's not even funny and before Calzaghe figured out that Kessler does the same ****in thing Kessler was tagging him and winning.

    Calzaghe has superior workrate and nothing else.

    Incorrect. Hopkins fight. Best punches undoubtedly landed by BHop but the fight was won by Calzaghes workrate. Calzaghe threw loads of punches and was constantly in his face. This is how he won rounds.

    Correct me if im wrong. Dont just act a fool and say im wrong

    How many punches did Hopkins throw against Pavlik? wasn't he older then too?

    Mayweather get's Ko'ed, Joe has already proven he is invicible, if DLH gave Mayweather problems, what do you think a fighter the calibre of Joe would do for heavens sake?

    Think Mcfly, think!

    ANd thank you for showing how STUPID you really are. Floyd and Jones are NOTHING alike.

    Floyd is a boxer that got to where he is on his great skills. Roy got where he was by his freakish talent. ANd when Calzaghe fought Jones that talent was only about half of what it was in his prime.

    For arguments sake you are an idiot.:good

    Hopkins is also 43 and hasn't had a good workrate in a fight since 03.

    Mayweather is a 130 pounder. What he did at 154 don't mean ****. Lets see Calzaghe fight some cruiserweights and see how great he is.

    You know NOTHING about boxing you are a complete idiot and make other Calzaghe fans that actually have some knowledge look bad. Go and kill yourself you are useless to the world.

    well I could be pedantic to prove whom the idiot really is... However, as we all saw Jones put in his career best effort against Calzaghe, it eradicates all credibility you may have once had.

    I use DLH as a prime example for Mayweathers ability to beat Calzaghe, I suppose you'd suggest DLH was a better boxer also though....sigh

    You said "Calzaghe's workrate and chin mean that he has the ability to win any fight he goes into"

    That is utter crap. If that was the only formula for success in boxing a guy like Sam Soliman would be a p4p star.

    Reid and Kessler clearly took rounds off him with effective, clean punching thats how you win a round. Not just appearing the aggressor, that is one of the biggest fallacies in boxing. That the fighter making the fight should get the rounds just because he is coming forward is absolute bull****.

    WHAT?!?!?!?!?! WHat did you just say??? Besides take a beating Jones did nothing but land 2 good punches in the fight.

    Use DLH all you want because that isn't even close to Floyd at his best but hey I shouldn't except you to know that seeing is you have probably never seen any other Mayweather fights.

    Again I beg you. Go kill yourself.
