I suppose it's possible he's just rolling the dice here and taking a chance.. Not that much to lose, I guess. He's 84 after all.
    There isn't much for him to lose at all and a lot to gain.

      FFS JC isn't just about throwing a 1,000 punches. He completely outboxed Kessler and Lacy in every way. The bloke can BOX

        I'm betting Hopkins, but if Joe wins at least he'll shut the **** up about Lacy. He'll be able to name-drop Hopkins in the future. That works. He'll have his hands full though.

        As we get closer I like the old man more and more.

            This reminds me of the 500 threads you made to convince yourself Mosley was going to win.

            Why has Calzaghe suddenly became a one dimensional boxer who just throws lots of punches when we all know this isn't true.

              Surprising that Roach would say that this could be an easy fight for Hopkins, no? Freddie Roach isn't exactly your run of the mill **** blower.

                Jermain Taylor anyone, I pretty sure thats exactly what happened there, Taylor throwing more punches than Hops? Or do you claim two robberies!?!

                  You talking to me? The Calzaghe contingent has been extremely ******* with their views for months.

                  Don't get cranky just because some pro Hopkins threads have popped up in the week leading up to the fight.

                  You're so right by the way.. Mosley had no chance. I should have learned my lesson when Cotto completely dominated him. :wank: What a blowout that was, eh?

                      Joe C's haters **** on him about the whole "slapper" thing, but he don't have to connect wit solid power to win his fights. He just piles up a lot of points wit fast flurries. He's got a decent KO percentage on his record, so like he says, if he is a slapper he's successfully bitchslapped a good portion of the guys he's fought. I don't think he'll come close to stopping Hopkins though.
