    She likes the sound of it, just can't understand a word of it (like the rest of us).

    B-hop lost that fight, as Calzaghe simply out worked him and got him out of his comfort level......but for every close loss, you will find a fighter that says he was robbed. So you can't blame him.

    You can blame him. It was an absolutely disgraceful effort at conning the ref (not that Mr Cortez needs any conning) and the judges.

    I loved at the end of the fight when B-hop mentioned a re-match, Joe just said 'why would I give him a re-match when he never came to fight the first time.'

    Spot on.

    Stupid thing is he then goes and shows what he really can do against Pavlik. Frustrating fighter.

    The worst accent I had trouble understanding was that of Kevin McBride. All I could here was "something something something Mike Tyson tried to bit of my nipple something" :lol: Entertaining guy though :bbb

    He's always constantly making jokes.

    My trainer picked him up from the airport when he came over for prizefighter. Said he never stopped making jokes from the minute he landed till drove to where he was staying. He's a nutter but by all accounts a nice one.

    B-Hop is so far the superior and greater fighter though it's not even funny.

    Different attributes tho Flea...

    I think he's a better fighter, as I enjoy watching his defensive skills and boxing brain at work...not sure he's far superior tho.

    B-Hop is an ATG, top 50 arguably.

    Joe C doesn't scrape my top 100. That's realism.

    There can be no argument. Unless you (not you specifically, anyone who disagrees) think Calzaghe trumps him based on his fight with B-Hop? That's shocking.

    Calzaghe had an unorthodox and effective style, but head-to-head and greatness is another thing? If you have two fighters that are close based on resume then you have to progress to individual attributes and how they displayed them throughout their career? As it stands, Calzaghe and Hop aren't anywhere near each other in resume, but Hop has shown himself to be far more effective against much better opposition on a consistent basis throughout his career.

    There can be no argument IMO. Even if I did score the B-Hop-Calzaghe fight to Joe (114-113)

    Is there a fighter on Bhops resume that you think would beat Calzaghe?
