To those who said Woods provides JC a bigger challenge than Hopkins

Did anyone actually say that though?

 

Yes

 

It was a fairly accurate prediciton pre-Woods/tarver. Woods was in form, beating Johnson and Gonzales and looking really good. Hopkins is also coming off a couple of good wins, too. I'm sure people said that Woods could be more of a threat beause he has a styles advantage against Calzaghe. Calzaghe and Woods are both pressure fighters, so it would be quite lose, I guess. Hopkins is a defensive fighter so if Calzaghe is better, it could be one sided. That's what makes Calzaghe/Hopkins such an interesting fight. They have two very contrasting styles and it could go either way - And be decisive both ways.

In hindsight it was well off, but nobody could have predicted such an abysmal performance from Woods. It's easy to laugh at those predictions now, but before Woods/Tarver, it wasn't impossible.

If you can't even see where people are coming from, you know **** all about Woods or Hopkins.

 

:rofl

 

Man, I agree some people are delusional. Make no mistake B-Hop will be Joes toughest ever fight alongside Eubanks and Kessler.

 

I love the way people assume because 1 brit loses to a dixie all Brits will lose to dixies, Woods defeat has no bearing on Joe at all.

 

Although what was particularly sweet about Saturday was the next big yank, the 'david haye crusher' fields losing to a british journeyman.

 

All of the delusional Brit fans. Well, most of them did. They are the same ones who think Pavlik, Winky, and Taylor are trash and Kessler and Calzaghe is God.

They live in another dream world.

 

what does that make glen johnson? one of hopkins more impressive wins, a guy who went through 36 rounds of hell with woods?
