Calzaghe has swallowed the beit

[!! Shawn]

All this crap of saying 'I wont allow Hopkins to get to my head ' is meaningless.Hopkins has already got under Joe's skin.

Joe is a walking knockout,just waiting for the bell to ring before he can hit the canvasss.You lot will be shocked but believe me Joe aint winning this one.The more Joe talks the more we can tell he is full of fear like Benard said.Come fight night Joe will freeze like a deer

I wonder what people will say when Joe is knocked out by a 43yr old

If Joe didn't hit the canvas after the uppercut that Kessler nailed him with, he is not going down from anything Bernard can throw.

If Calzaghe tastes the canvas it'll be from a flash knockdown because of balance issues.

Even then that is very very slim.

Fight in front of 50,000 people

Turnover........ what are you talking about child?

We are talking about an event.

Fighting in front of the biggest post war boxing crowd in the toughest fight of your career. Against a young undefeated double world champion.....thats pressure.


Hopkins doesn't offer the same kind of nerve wracking experience,,,,,,,,,,at all.

Not even a little bit.

It's a fight against a named american in america. Just a box ticked for Joe.

Your way off. Calzaghe was in his backyard with the large majority of those fans cheering for him. This is way different.

More fool you. Joe Calzaghe is one of the most exciting fighters in boxing today and has been for most of his career.

It is US fans who have been paying for the dross served up by Hopkins, Winky, Floyd, De La Hoya, Tarver, Toney etc etc in the last few years. I felt sorry for the comentators on the Winky fight. "This is a great fight! If we keep on saying it, it must be true!"

Open your eyes and see Joe C for what he is.

He decks Hopkins on the 19th.

A guy who fights bums like Peter Manfredo in front of 40,00 people like he was a legitimate opponent. Winky Wright if light years ahead of anyone Joe ever fought. That's the truth. Kessler was a paper champion. Who did he ever beat? How did he become a unified Champ in a division Calzaghe supposedly owned for 8 years before Kessler even got a title? You tell me? Same goes for Jeff "Peter Manfredo was kicking my ass" Lacy.

Damn straight. Kessler is a bloody good fighter and could quite easily dominate SMW for years to come. Get on you tube and watch some of his fights.

[tennesseeboy]

yeah he will dominate when joe c leaves, trust me

[duffgun]

He has!!!!!!!!!!!!!


He has been the highest attended fight post war in this sport you profess to know.

When i watched SRR vs Turpin 2 it said the attendance was over 60,000 so that cant be true there have been bigger attended fights than that post war.

Hopkins could win, but it won't be by KO. He has only one KO in the last five years, and Hopkins isn't even going to try to KO a solid chinned guy like Joe. If he wins it will be by decision.

I can see a Hopkins TKO/KO win or a Calzaghe "at the end of the day" UD win. But how can people think, that Hopkins can win on points. Cant see Hopkins winning a single round. Hopkins only winning chance will be "a rumble in the planet" performance.

In boxing we dont talk number of people,talk about turnover,how much money did they make for the fight?
Lets face it if we talked about numbers that would mean the Laczano fight is a big fight right.

In the UK people buy anything,fans down there dont have discernment,they buy whatever is offered.I wouldnt pay a dime to watch that Lazcano fight nor any of the previous Joe's fights.

Tell me what thrillers of Borehards are the best to watch?
His fights where he beats little men?
When you think of Borehard which fights stand out as entertaining?
In your opinion?
Which fighters who Borehard has beaten would beat Calzaghe?
Thanks.
