    When Hopkins Beats Calzaghe, Will You Say He Beat Another Small Guy?

    Just wondering the sentiment before the fight how people think, because after I want to see if any minds change.

      Hopkins is #1 P4P hes unstoppable, his style is impetuous, his defense is impregnable, he wants Joes heart and to eat his children.

        Joe isn't a smaller guy! Shorter, yeah, but he's like 196 pounds and has struggled to make SMW for years. Not a small guy.

            Calazghe has always been a 1 weight class above Hopkins, i know I won't make such a statement.

              I know that Bernard Hopkins has fought at Light Heavyweight before and Joe Calzaghe has not once done that.

              However, Calzaghe is over six feet tall and he has been a World Champion for well over a decade.

              He has destroyed the likes of Eubank, Lacy and Kessler.

              A small fighter, he ain't.

                I think you are over rating him. Who did he beat to make him one of the greatest of all time? He did enough to be one of the greatest in the decade but of all time? His best opponent was Mikkel Kessler!(Not that he is bad...I like Kessler a lot)

                  Isn't Calzaghe the naturally bigger guy? I heard ppl who met hopkins in real life when he was fighting in the smaller weight class and they said he was a little dude.

                    That is one of the craziest things Iron Mike ever said throughout his career. "Impetuous" "Impregnable" lmao. Mike probably sat at a fireplace reading the dictionary at night.
