Do the majority really think Hopkins is gonna get blown out by Joe?

[Stormin' Norman]

I'm goin against the grain.

You gotta understand that Hopkins is the kinda fighter who hasn't eaten a donut in YEARS. You don't wanna **** with that. He'll wait until the later rounds and unleash his vicious counter right on Calzaghe when he least expects it.

Calzaghe's been on his ass alot more than Hopkins has.

[RAESAAD]

Calzaghe has a lot more power than he is given credit for and has the speed and timing to land flush shots on the button that Hopkins doesn't see, it's a strong possibility. If Calzaghe didn't have hand problems I'd be accepting bets on him to KO Hopkins inside 10.

I bet my house that Calzaghe doesn't stop Hopkins.....even if he had 3 hands.

Ha ha Winky was eating Krispy Kreeme before he fought HOpkins and look what happened. Ha ha.

I agree that Hopkins will wait until the later rounds to come on strong.

Is this true? Calzaghe has been down twice, against Mitchell and Salem. Hopkins has been down twice, both against Mercado. I see no reason to predict a knockout for Bernard here.

i second that. everybody going to jump off joe bandwagon once he lose....kinda like p williams ....maybe i'm the only one still riding with him

NO ONE is getting knocked out in this fight.

Neither has the power and both are too smart to get into a situation where they will be TKO'd.

i agree with that but i can see joe touching the canvas due to hi bad balance

I can see that.

Hopkins has good power in both hands, but it is respect power, not KO power.

If Joe goes down, he likely gets up very quickly without being seriously hurt.

yeah it would be flash ko. but that would give bhop the round. in the back of my mind bhop is going want to try to find a way to tko him cause he is a big underdog and he want to prove a point with this fight. he also don't want it to go the scorecard

Well the judges will surely favour Hopkins, so I don't know why he wouldn't. With one stoppage in his last EIGHT fights, I don't really see Bernard stopping a guy that hasn't lost in 17 years. But that's just me.
