Super middleweight champion Joe Calzaghe has vowed to avoid making the same mistakes as countryman Ricky Hatton when he moves up to light heavyweight division to face Bernard Hopkins on April 19 in Las Vegas. [details]

If Chris Eubanks mind games didn't work on him I don't see Ol' Bernies working on him.

Joe is one of the calmest guys in boxing, I've never seen him rattled.

Talk is cheap, old Bitchnard will own that ass on the 19th of April and there's nothing Calzaghe can do about it.

Who says Hatton made any mistakes? He fought the best fight he could fight and did ok for a while but he eventually got overmatched and smacked up by a better fighter.

lol Hatton clearly lost focus, bending over to offer FLoyd his ass showed the occasion got to him. He still would have lost, but he DID make mistakes in what was the biggest fight of his life.

Hasnt Clazaghe said this already like 20 times?

Joke already made the same mistake Hatton did: he decided to leave his backyard and face a real fighter...

Hatton moved up a weight to fight the P4P king, and did the best he could, but was just outclassed.

Calzaghe's moving up a weight to face an old timer past his prime, there's no excuses for Joe, he should stop trying to cover his arse, i thought him and Hatton were buddies ?!?!?

Who needs friends...........
