Official Bernard Hopkins vs. Joe Calzaghe Poll/Prediction Thread

I have to back Calzaghe in this one, and i think speed will be the main factor on fight night. There's alot of talk of Hopkins counter punching, but i don't think he will be fast enough to hit JC on a regular basis - certainly not enough to win the fight. Another area i think B-Hop is banking on is his inside game, fighting Joe in the clinch, but i see this as one of Joe's strongest areas so i don't think Bernard will have much of an advantage there - if at all.Comment

No I did not say that. I said UD/SD, so that means he'll probably win in a CLOSE fight.
And since when does it mean that you might have lost if you get a Split Decision victory?
Are you one of those people that thinks close fights are complete ROBBERIES?Comment

Don't forget to mention why Hopkins doesn't have that puch output to beat Calzaghe: Calzaghe is lightning fast and throws over 100 punches a round. So not as people are saying: Hopkins is 43 and shouldn't been fighting in the first place.Hopkins had trouble with taylor's speed and power. Hokins will have problems with Calzaghe's speed, activity and a`ccuracy. I dont see how Hopkins is going to cope with those 3 things. Hopkins doesnt possess the power to keep Calzaghe back. He doesnt have the speed or the activity rate to keep up. Hopkins is a good boxer, but then so was Kessler. Calzaghe by decision.
Why don't you try to say Calzaghe the best of all time? You sure have the nerve.Comment

I'm pretty sure that if somehow Calzaghe lost a close decision you feel he won you would too call it a robbery.Comment
