    Its the embarrassing nickname I'm cringing at not his fighter style but your right Calzaghe did beat Hopkins.

    Alot of Hopkins fights are too close, this guy cant win decisively so naturally he will end up with some losses.

    Bull**** he did. Hopkins couldn't keep up and couldn't back up his promise that "he would never lose to a white boy"

    To also be fair, it wasn't that close at all. Not as one sided as Joe's fight against Lacy but what fight is?

    It never ceases to amaze me how such a shitty fight has such a cult like status here on ESB, nobody won that **** fest called Hopkins vs Calzaghe, they both lost and the fans who watched it did as well.

    I love how Hopkins became old and shot for 1 night.

    LHW Hopkins has better wins and performances than MW Hopkins for me also people shitting on Calzaghes close win over Bhop directly **** on many other fighters.


    Pavlik got his ass kicked by an older Bhop.

    Pascal lost to an even older Bhop.

    Cloud same story to an even older Bhop again.

    His only blemish since Calzaghe is Dawson at the age of 47 which is Dawsons best win by a mile.
