    Calzaghe's Punch Output Will Puzzle Many

    Does not Winky throw 1000 punches a fight? He threw less than 700 against Hopkins. Again I hate repeating this but Calzaghe won't get off as much as people think, Hopkins won't be in range and when he is, the strength behind Bernard's punches will make Calzaghe start to become gunshy, once that happens its a wrap. Once Hopkins sees a fighter doing something that they dont normally do, he knows he's got them and then he dismantles them. Remember where you heard it first.

        Kessler said that about Joe after the Lacy fight. "There is no way Calzaghe will be able to throw 1000 punches at me". Kessler fights on the inside and actually uses his jab to keep opponents at bay, Hopkins doesn't. I can see Joe throwing 850 punches against Hopkins, don't believe the hype.

            A lot of guys rootin for bernard say that his punches will make him gunshy etc but let me point out that he IS NOT a big puncher, not even that harda puncher really and joe has a very good chin. Basically, Hopkins punches will not stop Joe

            Just my opinion

              Winky's offense is nowhere near the same stratosphere as Calzaghe's

              That's like comparing Hopkins's defense to Jeff Lacy's: completely meaningless.

              You can't tell anything about this fight from last June's unfortunate display

                Why doesnt anyone who has ever boxed before ever respond on here, Im tired of talking to people who dont really know much about boxing. Frustrating.

                    I have Hopkins to win this fight, but I think any discussion on the subject of who will be a stronger fighter is premature. Nobody knows at this point.
