Sick of Hopkins' fans ignorance.

How Hopkins even avoided anyone...he eventually fought everyone when he was even older than everyone else. And he got paid better too rather than taking the 1st offer.

 

I'm not saying that Calzaghe is better than Hopkins or has a better resume than him, but Calzaghe's style is all wrong for Hopkins, and he wasn't prime either when he fought Borenard.
Hopkins had Cortez to allow him to hit and hold and clinch, and also to fake low blows, and still couldn't get the decision with three American judges in American soil.
I understand how some people scored the fight for Hopkins, but the decision could easily have gone to Calzaghe as well, so give the man his props instead of claiming robbery.

 

So true. Haters ***** about him not fighting Calzaghe when it was first offered or fighting Jones for a 40/60 split. But he did fight Calzaghe when Joe was a bigger name and made more money, he fought Jones for his demanded 50/50 but also stayed undefeated and got a big money fight with Oscar. Throw in wins with Wright, Tarver, Tito, Pascal and Pavlik when all were highly regarded and you have a fighter who was not only a smart business man but looked for legacy as well as financial reward.

Also he's fighting Dawson next. Hopkins is champion, beat the man who beat Dawson and could just take easy fights until he retires when his body eventually gives out. But no what Hopkins does is face Dawson next who pretty much everybody has accused Hopkins of ducking because of his style.

After Calzaghe got his best win against Hopkins what did he do to end his career? Did he go out on a high and face an opponent that would add to his legacy or the toughest opponent available? No he fought shot to **** Jones Jr, even Calzaghe himself admitted Jones was shot and he was just looking for an easy fight. Calzaghe rarely ever challenged himself while Hopkins at 46 is taking on an opponent who he has been accused of ducking and who has a good chance of beating him.

All this Hopkins cherry picking and ducking crap is just envy and jealousy from fans off fighters he beat or made look bad.

 

:deal

 

Difficult to truly assess Jones as Jones is a known cheat

Look Brighton bummer. Hopkins doesnt have any wins as good as Eubank and undefeated Kessler on his resume, Calzaghe has both and a win over Hopkins. Thats not bias. Work it out for yourself for a change will you atsch

 

Remember this bummer. Go back to when Calzaghe fought Jones and it was considered a better match up than Hopkins/Pavlik at the time. People say Jones is shot now after Calzaghe schooled him, but more predicted Jones to beat Calzaghe, just Calzaghe proved once again why he was top dog and beat the #6 LHW. Hopkins wouldnt go near Jones until he was coming off a first round KO, got put down, pretended it was on the back of his head and was lucky not to have a KO against him.
As for Dawson, remember how Hopkins has ducked Dawson now for 5 odd years and only now whilst backed into a corner is now facing him. Lets not also forget that Hopkins team were also trying to find a way out of the fight, until the last minute

 

You have it arse backwards. It's clearly the Hopkins fans who can't accept his loss to Sugar Joe who have the problem. Calzaghe fans can still admire Hopkins' fantastic achievements since the Calzaghe fight, while there are plenty of bitter ****wits who try to rewrite history regarding Hopkins vs Calzaghe every few months.

 

popkins humiliated and brutally exposed by iceferg :deal

 

These are the points you made

1. Roy Jones Jr was not shot when Calzaghe faced him simply because more fans picked RJJ to beat Calzaghe?

- This is bull****: http://www.eastsideboxing.com/forum/poll.php?do=showresults&pollid=5021

And here is the video I made before the fight and read my comments. The people who picked RJJ only did because people think/thought Calzaghe is that **** he will be beaten by a 39 year old Roy Jones Jr who had fallen from P4P#1 6/7 years back

There is no need for these polls and videos. Anyone who had seen Roy Jones Jr from the Tarver fights and the RJJ from the Felix Trinidad fight will know RJJ was past his best/shot.


The other points you made:-

2. Hopkins ducked RJJ, but fought him twice

3. RJJ was a better opponent for Calzaghe than Hopkins rematch and Pavlik.

4. Hopkins was lucky not to lose against RJJ

5. RJJ was justified #6 LHW

6. Hopkins ducked Dawson, but Calzaghe didnt

7. Hopkins is forced to fight Dawson now because he is backed into the corner.

8. Hopkins was trying to find a way out of the fight vs Dawson even though he called him out.

9. Hopkins only fought RJJ because RJJ got KO1 by Green

10. Felix Sturm can beat Prime Hopkins at 160

We can go into details if you wish.
