I can't predict the future, but I'd say yeah, of course he has a chance. Joe is '#1 as far as I'm concerned, but you can't count Hopkins out. He is a dangerous man, even at 43.
I learned a long time ago never to bet against Joe Calzaghe, but you never know what you'll get -- he could wipe the floor with Hopkins and make it look effortless, or he could struggle and manage to pull out a tight decision. We'll have to wait and see.
Anyone has a chance in a fight. But Calzaghe or his fans have nothing to brag about if he beats a 43 year old man. Lose-lose situation.
Of course the UK dudes have a right to brag, beating Hopkins is a big deal. If he hadn't beaten anyone of significance for a number of years then you may have had a point, however, Hopkins is still performing like he's in his 20's and he is considered a living legend by many. To wipe Hopkins out would be Joe's biggest win yet.

Legend in the making. A great? No doubt about it. This is a very driven guy with a huge heart.
