    Fair enough, and thanks. At the end I thought it was a strangely wide score myself, based on how the fight seemed to go, but I try to score each round independently.

    Most of the experienced posters here, including yourself, had the fight a lot closer than that. I recall giving Hopkins the first two rounds and that's it.

    Well, Mayweather beat Hoya by split decision, and I thought that was crap, too.

    I thought the fight as a whole was competitive, but Calzaghe had the advantage by a slight margin in each round. And given all those slight advantages in nearly every round, I couldn't see anyone giving Bernard six rounds.

    Understandable how that sounds weird, but about once or twice a year I end up scoring a fight like that.

    Cool. You'll never hear me say otherwise. Scoring fights on television is bull****, anyway, when you get right down to it.

    I had Joe winning by 2 points at the end, it was a close and probably the toughest fight of Joes career, Hopkins tank just ran empty down the stretch, something that wouldnt of happend 3 or 4 years ago.

    the greatest moment in recent boxing memory for me would be is calzaghes 0 went in his very last fight because that 0 is what he's built his whole career on it's his calling card
    the casual fan in britain gets drawn to the undefeated tag i just wonder whether it would be different if he lost his 0 an dhow he'd be viewed

    calzaghe or mayweather for the simple fact both of them act like pricks and don't take on the best challengers unlike cotto and pavlik who are true gentleman of the sport

    Its amazing how lazy BHOP was in that fight with JC and he still got gassed towards the end. He cam in with a gameplan of hit and hold with the occasional attempted headbutt. With that kind of negative tactic I am glad he lost.
