    Pictures like these will make the close SD loss look better for Hopkins (43) if Joe will keep on winning.

    To the topic, the KD happened in the 1st where Hops was fresh and didn't see the urgency to end it right there and then. IF his stamina didn't fail him, I believe Joe would have suffered tha same fate that Trinidad and Tarver did.

    During the fight i didnt think he was really hurt but after he admitted he was.
    If he had opened up and stopped him right there imagine all the glory Hopkins could be having right now and all the **** Calzaghe would be taking.
    Its sad Hopkins didnt really give it a try.

    It wouldve been a huge mistake by Hopkins ... it was only a flash knockdown and Calzaghe got back up immediately
