    I seem to recall a guy named Hagler since Monzon's great reign being more accomplished than Hopkins.

    ...and as a permanent member of the Bernard Hopkins Express, I'm fully prepared to see him get stopped on his feet.

    Well, it was a fun ride!

    Hopkins is losing every round and getting stopped, deal with it. I thought you were a Calzaghe supporter, traitor.:bart

    I didn't think that at first, but after watching the Wright fight again...

    He was breathing heavily around the 4th and 5th rounds, with his mouth wide open. And this was from Wright's pressure. Calzaghe brings more speed, a higher punch output, more power, and throws from very unpredictable angles. I think Hopkins' age will catch up to him and he'll be exhausted in the mid rounds. He'll get hit more than he ever has in this fight. I see him going into a shell. Calzaghe will stop him on his feet with a barrage of punches where Hopkins doesn't throw back or Roach will stop it.

    If Hopkins does last the distance, I see a 120-108/119-109 type decision for Calzaghe.

    You don't think Hopkins will win a round?

    I like Joe just fine. But I like Hopkins a good deal more.
