i pick calzaghe by close decision. hopkins will use dirty tactics on him( calzaghe looked worse when fighting guys that used dirty tactics eg. bika) but calzaghe's workrate will get him the decision
Well Hopkins has only had one fight there, plus the one at 170 with Winky, so I think it's probably pretty much even. Should be a good fight, Hopkins' defense is too good and Cals hands too bad for Joe to get a knockout. I pick Joe by UD, superior workrate and speed, fresher legs, fresher period.
Yup, true . Hopkins has an excellent defense, but I believe as you mentioned that Calzaghe has the workrate and speed to break that defense down!
I a m not sure about one thing here. Its going to be at lightheavy. Who does this suit best ?
