Calzaghe: "I Saw Fear in Bernard Hopkins' Eyes"

[sparked_85]

I saw some documentary on BBC2 about some American prison and some white kid got stabbed because they borrowed a domino of a black man, Cant remember what prison it was but it looked like a horrible place.

what the **** was he going to do with that domino?

It was Louis Theroux, cant remember the prison, but it was nasty place, full of **** activity, men dressed as women etc, really horrible stuff.

that was louis theroux's prison documentary about san quentin i think.

The white kid who got stabbed got stabbed by the white gang because he crossed gang lines.

You know what, id pick Taylor over Kessler (before i did say Kessler would win, but now id go with Taylor), Kessler is decent in straight lines, but predictable, not as talented as taylor, who nearly had Kelly Pavlik finished in 2 rounds.

Back to hopkins calzaghe, i look at it like this, Calzaghe should win the fight, because no one can see b hop surviving at 43 against a high output fighter, thing is...

These days Hopkins only picks the fights that he thinks he will win, because he is trying to out do Roy Jones in the legacy stakes without having to fight him again. He will try and time calzaghe coming inside with jab and the overhand right, and he will be dirty inside also, plus look out for some dodgy goldenboy judging, Hopkins has a better chance than what people on here give him. Look at the problems Bika caused calzaghe, that might be the





key.

I was thinking calzaghe by a land slide when this fight was announced but the more i think about it the more i feel b-hop will nick ity and shock the world. joe would take it in the UK but in the US b-hop shades it.

Bika did a good job of spoiling Calzaghe but he still lost by 7 rounds on 2 of the cards and 5 on the other (admittedly the fouls hurt him). i dont think Bernard can win by simply spoiling the fight. in fact I dont think Hopkins can win at all. Sorry BHOP fans.

I watched B-hop taylor 2 last night (i had it for hopkins by one point 113-112), stylistically, he shouldn't be able to beat calzaghe, but then again, Hopkins defense is insane, he can read anything incoming, you cant discount that, what hopkins is gonna do is try and make calzaghe fight his fight, tone down the pace of the fight, and he will try and throw single shots, then come in and clinch to aviod the counter. I promise you Calzaghe has never been in with a guy who can defend like hopkins. And if calzaghe gets countered its gonna disuade him from coming in with lots of shots, hopkins could get blown out, but he could win also. Calzaghe hasnt been in with a guy like this before, people seem to forget that.

It will be an interesting fight. I know that Hopkins is shrewd defensively but i think the man is too old to hold his own in there against a volume puncher who can also box and move in and out of range... the inside battle will be interesting....I think Hopkins may get overwhelmed due to being a smaller man..judging may play a part

You're delusional. Why did Hop walk away first? Having lost to Jermain Taylor twice is indeed an embarrassment. Hop's career is nowhere near as good as Joe's and Hop understands that

Bernard Hopkins Best Wins.

Keith Holmes
Winky Wright
Antonio Tarver
Howard Eastman
Felix Trinidad
ODLH
Antwun Echols X2
Simon Brown
Glen Johnson
John David Jackson
Willian Joppy

Now compare that to Calzaghe's best wins.

Jeff Lacy
Mikkel Kessler
Chris Eubank
Robin Reid
Charles Brewer
Mario Veit x2
Richie Woodhall
Sakio Bika
Byron Mitchell

Hopkins was also P4P number 1 for 2 years combined do you still think Calzaghe has had a better career ??

[Burning Desire]

You're talking "names" and PPV draws," not boxing. Would Calzaghe have lost twice to Taylor? C'mon you wouldn't even argue that

Would Hopkins have got a gift decision against Robin Reid ??

[CardioMonster]

Hopkins wins against blown up welterweights and light middleweights just dont cut it in my opinion.
