          Yes, I think Calzaghe would have a rather easy time with Hopkins.

          Hopkins has fought better opposition, but the quality is not THAT disparate. A lot of Joe's opponents are better than some of Hopkins's.

          Regardless, the quality of opposition does not tell the story here.

            i dont think anybody can beat calzaghe, hes un-stoppable

            i dont like the way he throws his punches, cause he didnt used to do that, but it works

              Could Joe beat Nard?
              Not if GBP appointed the judges.

                and "hopkins cant handle calzaghe's speed"
                wtf has calzaghe done to convince yall that he would stand a chance against b-hop??
                cal has fought mostly bums his whole career and now all the sudden he can ko hopkins?

                explain

                well said! the hopkins (of a few years ago) would've destroyed calzaghe. he'd probably still beat him now. calzaghe has built his career on fighting nobodies (exception of eubank who was at the very end of his career after some hard fights). He's trying to retire unbeaten thats why he's never taken on the best, EUBANK (in his prime), BENN,JONES,TAYLOR,HOPKINS and he doesnt even come close to greats like LEONARD,HAGLER,DURAN AND HEARNS. He's just an average boxer fighting less than average opponents.

                  Calzaghe beats Hopkins 10 out of 10 times, too fast, too accurate and a very clever boxer.

                    calzaghe on points, two big too fast good chin but he must not be reckless as he somtimes can be hopkins is a great technical boxer so calzaghe must box him and not brawl with him.

                      Hopkins isn't busy enough, Calzaghe wins on workrate alone. Hopkins of a few years ago might have been crafty enough to cause Joe problems, but his workrate has dropped off from what wasn't exactly a Hattonesque level to start with.
