    Yeah Hopkins is getting to him, I haven't seen him with facial expressions like that since Lacy, which means he is focused. I think he will come out guns a blazing, the problem with that is Joe might be a little wreckless early and Ex might start picking him off with overhand rights, this will have Joe worrying about counters and might drop his workrate which Ex needs to make it his style of fight. Joe needs to come out and show angles, box fluid and put on effective, controlled pressure. Bernard needs his timing to be perfect, the stamina there, and out think Joe.

    The other day Joe won the mental chess match, today Ex had the upper hand. We will see this until the fight and I love watching these champions try to get the mental edge, very tactical.

    Calzaghe always chews gum. He chews it all the way to the ring and during introductions, then spits it before the bell.
    Since you don't know this means you haven't seen enough of joe to
    comment. So STFU!!

    That is what I was thinking, and I bet it will be the UK flag.

    my favourite quote so far was joe telling hopkins 'you're getting ****ed up fight night',joe will dominate this fight from rnd 4 onwards,it'll be nip&tuck in 1-3,joe boxes his way to a clear ud possible late stoppage.

    cant wait for this fight have been a joe fan for many a year but cant wait to see him go up against a good counter puncher should be good to see what joe is really made of.

    I have not seen the old power of JC in the last 4 fights so hope it is still there

    I cant wait for this now. Cant wait for the talking to be over & cant wait to see the JC fanatics dissappear in their droves. I expect to see many new accounts created after this fight.

    Great stuff!:lol: Hopkins lives for that kind of head to head face-off and trash talk. Not much love lost between them, that's for sure!
