i got a feeling this fight is gonna be fixed because both roy and calzaghe are promoting the fight themselves. a similar thing happened when B-hop fought DLH. could RJJ vs Calz be fixed?. they were both talking about having a second fight and prhaps even a trilogy. whatever happens i will be real disapointed if the fight ends a draw, or if we have a questionable decision which demands a rematch...
Go to .57...
Oscar had never been punched by a legit middleweight who went all the way to lightheavyweight and beat the linear champ decisively,
Oscar was facing the significantly bigger man, and it would make no sense for it to be fixed given that Hopkins was the overwhelming favorite. Oscar was too weak and was lucky to get a gift from Sturm, a feather fisted middleweight.
Only a simple minded person would say that there was a fix.
if u think for 3 1/2 seconds roy doesnt WANT to win this fight
or that joe WANTS to lose his 0
then your an idiot.
Man Roy has too much pride to FIX a fight, especially if its him to get the L. AND we all know Joe dont want his "0" to go. So he wont want the L. You have Calzaghe who thinks by beating Jones will be the BEST FIGHTER OF ALL TIME if he wins and then you have Roy jones jr who wants to prove he still has a lot left in him and that he CAN beat Joe. SO I dont see this fight being FIXED. A draw is out of the question. A draw to joe Calzaghe is just like getting the L.
why would u be suspicious if its a draw?
somebody explain :wtf: this kid is talking about
lol because it could be fixed, that way they have a rematch in cardiff or sutin, and it equals an extra payday for both fighters. win win situation
yeah i agree, which is why i wouldd be extremely dissapointed and suspicious is the fight turns out to be a draw.

oscar wanted no more. he was getten beat up. liver shots HURT. he was def in pain and even if he couldve gotten up, say round 8, he was too small and hopkins would have hurt his shit up much worse. get over the conspiracy theory all ready, he got KO'ed.
"Body Shot! Body Shot!"
Oh dude I finally found out who was yelling that! I was rackin my brain tryin to figure that shit out. It was Ms Cleo...

What fights did this open up? Everyone knew Hopkins was going to win, for once he wasn't the underdog, and it did nothing for new fights. All his fights together didn't do what Oscar got against Mayweather. Bernard is just not the type of fighter that can help benefit anybody's career. Even Calzaghe couldn't get a PPV fight with him. I love the guy, but he is extremely underrated and will never have a large fan base.
I'm glad though, nut huggers make it hard to be a fan. I love Pacquiao, but his fans can be unbearable.
Yeah i agree, i wasnt sure wether the fight was fixed or not gonna have to go see it again. yeah bernard aint exactly a fighter evry1 wants to watch. i duno what RJ vs Bhop would turn out to be like though, might be an interesting clash of styles. true, i hate nuthuggers. i would hav been ok with calzaghe, but his fans make me hate the guy lol..
Maybe hopkins paid oscar to drop from the bodyshot? that way Hops would get massive credit and would open up new fights, which golden boy could promote, and both of them making profit out of it. if that was the case their plot worked lol. its a bad business lol

You're right a lot of people did, but people are idiots you gotta see the fight for yourself. I saw Hopkins outboxing Oscar and torturing him downstairs where he can't take punishment, and then landing the perfect counter to an exposed liver. Wasn't the first time Hopkins pulled it off, and it doesn't surprise me that he did it to an out of shape smaller Oscar De La Hoya. Also why would Oscar do it, to gain Bernard's super business knowledge in his promotion company? Maybe to draw in his endless fan base... No, unless Oscar bet 10 mill on hopkins, there is no reason in hell he would have fixed the fight. Nobody can buy out oscar except oscar himself.

yeah but many people thought the fight was fixed. and i dont see Roy fixing a fight either, but for the right amount of money anyone would. we might see one fighter deliberately trying to make the fight close.

I don't think BHop and Oscar was fixed at all, and I don't see roy fixing a fight.
