    Hopkins has just as many or more tricks up his sleave than PBF. As sloppy as Calzaghe fights hands low(goofing off). How will he not become a victim of over aggressiveness like Hatton? How will he not be exploited and countered all night?

    Because he's ten times the fighter Hatton is. He's got a plan B, C and D when plan A ain't working. He can box at range or mix it up, he can ****, he's a southpaw. Also, Hopkins isn't as good as PBF.

      Joe Calzaghe is a lot better than Ricky Hatton and Hopkins is as old as moses and never remotely as good as PBF. I don't see any kind of comparisons.

              haha, Hatton is an awful fighter who should never have gotten the opportunity to fight Floyd, Calzaghe is a proven boxer.

                Calzaghe and Hatton are two totally different kind of fighters. The only thing they have in common is being British.

                    I guess most fighters who are 43-0 are truly awful.
