How did you score Calzaghe-Hopkins?

I can't believe so many people think Hopkins won this fight. Hopkins was my favourite fighter at the time. Round 1, Calzaghe down, I was like shit, Calzaghe is gonna get beat. Well after that Hopkins got slapped to death. The judge who scored for Hopkins was lieing to himself.

I've seen it twice. The first time I had it for Calzaghe and the second for Hopkins. Who did you have as the winner? calzaghe by split decision :D :boxing: :alcoholic :dance:

Calzaghe won IMO. Rematch was definitely in order. yes and no...yes calzaghe won, and won decisively... no, there was no need for a rematch.... hopkins loses so ugly that he and his fans feel that headbutts, clinches, and holding and hitting are points scoring blows, but they are not....take away all of the illegal blows and hopkins may have landed one punch per round, while calzaghe was throwing and landing far more, regardless of how hard calzaghe haters (hopkins fans) think the punches are....calzaghe was the aggressor, had hopkins faking low blows to catch a breather, and started making it look easy, or as easy as someone fighting someone who is only trying to apply a ton of roughhouse tactics can make it.... only people who are interested in a rematch are calzaghe haters (hopkins fans)....nobody else is clamoring for it....not calzaghe, the networks, the media, nobody....because they know the fight isn't a sizzler, and the outcome isn't gonna be much different...lol...who's gonna shell out good $ to see hopkins fight like that again....

I THINK i had Hopkins edging it with his cleaner more effective punching but i cant remember and there is no way im watching that Shite again - Ever! 1 guy throwing a million windmills like a 5 year old on a sugar high (and missing!) and 1 guy barely throwing at all, fight was Raw Tripe!

I remember having Calzaghe winning in a close fight, tight on points.

Surprised my thread's still going. I actually think Dawson can beat Hopkins, at this stage.

We agree again. id give hopkins a good chance of beating dawson aswell

Hopkins won 7-5.

Hopkins doesn't want any part of Dawson.

exactly what ive been saying,im hearing too much talk about adamek,green etc he should fight dawson or retire imo We agree again.

Chad Dawson. exactly what ive been saying,im hearing too much talk about adamek,green etc he should fight dawson or retire imo

out of curiosity who you think hopkins should fight next? Chad Dawson.

Nope. No harm. It is what it is. out of curiosity who you think hopkins should fight next?

well its all in the past,hopkins went on to school pavlik and calzaghe beat jones up,no harm done Nope. No harm. It is what it is.

Yup, it sure would. well its all in the past,hopkins went on to school pavlik and calzaghe beat jones up,no harm done

The first fight was crap but that's not a good enough reason to justify not having a rematch. The first fight wasn't conclusive. A rematch was warranted, and i can't stand Hopkins.

ok two wins over hopkins would obviously look better than one,i get your point Yup, it sure would.

Which would mean a close fight. That's why you have rematches. In the event of a close fight. ok two wins over hopkins would obviously look better than one,i get your point

fans dont decide who their guy fights i wouldnt have minded a rematch,it would have been very similar to the first fight Which would mean a close fight. That's why you have rematches. In the event of a close fight.

And Calzaghe fans didn't. fans dont decide who their guy fights i wouldnt have minded a rematch,it would have been very similar to the first fight
