Id rather lose a decison, than get my ass beat....

yeah this isnt about uk vs us its more like: technically calzaghe won on points undoubtedly, since there is no way to measure pain and every person gets cut and hurt differently, there is only one way to settle a fight and that is on who got the most punches in. if hopkins had capitalised on the first knockdown hed have won but its just how it goes

i was wit ya up until the us>uk part

ha i mean if this was the amateurs, no doubt JoKe Calzaghe won, but where im from, if youre more hurt than the guy you fought, you loss. Id take this "LOSS", if im B-HOP because he showed he was the better fighter, maybe not the more active boxer, but he showed who is the better FIGHTER, which i never doubted, lets celebrate the career of the great Bernard Hopkins. Exactly, Cal has always had that amateur style, never been able to adopt that pro style of systematically breaking a fighter up, apart from Lacy who just stood there begging to be smacked. Some people would say he hasnt had to adopt that style because he's good enough at what he does but for my money he wouldnt get passed any of the top flight middles-light heavys of the last 30 years, this doesnt make Joe a bad fighter just not a great as some people are suggesting, to me thats outrageous

I tried to slide to the restroom in the first round, i come back JC is on the ground. I'm like WTF. Joe got his ass kicked, and it "looked like it" The win looks better on paper. Please don't watch the tape. LOL

Calzaghe won, Hopkins greatest win is over Trinidad since it brought him the fame. Then the Tarver fight which got him the respect.

thought this was a Margarito thread. I'd rather fight a man before he was too old to fight 8 rounds.
