I've never seen anything special about Calzaghe other than his unintimidation of Eubank and early punching power.Comment

If anybody gets KO'd, it will be Calzaghe. However, I'm in agreement with another poster on here who referenced Jermaine Taylor. Hopkins had trouble with Taylor's speed, power ans activity rate over 9 rounds. Dare I say, that he'll have to overcome similar issue with Calzaghe. I do think that JT probably hits harder than Calzaghe.
I think Calzaghe throws lots of punches. they may not be pretty or hard, but they are enough to walk away with a decision in this one. Hopkins only shot is to catch Joe coming in with a perfectly timed shot. If he hurts Joe, I think he jumps on him and finishes him. He couldnt allow Calzaghe to sit on a lead going into the late rounds.Comment
