Hopkins, Calzaghe Easily Make Weight

[steptwome]

Any links other than HBO to see the weigh-in? It doesn't work when I go there....

I really wonder what Calzaghe was saying as he pressed his forehead against Hopkins face and was talking through the smile with gritted teeth. He looked pissed and determined. I would'nt want to be on the oposing side of that. I think Bernard has made this whole thing backfire on himself. Now he has awoken the old Dragon that used to starch fighters with the lethal hooks.(aka-"slaps") HAHAHAHAHA!

I'm tired of people bitching about cortez, He is one of the best refs in the business. Holding is not boxing, he did a good job at May vs hatton not the best but a good job. Cortez didn't have **** to do with that ko
and if anything you guys should be happy cortez is reffing this fight. That's works in Joe's favor seeing that hopkins is the one who does the excessive holding

Cortez and the judges worry me big time.

Don't worry, man.

Obviously Cortez is going to be biased like always, but Calzaghe can overcome such adversity.

He has been a World Champion for well over a decade and he cannot be beaten

I still, to this day, cnanot believe that he deducted a point off Hatton.

First of... it doesn't mean ****, cuz the fight ended in a Kayo :-)

Second of... I still don't know why ppl can't understand it... Yeah, it was wrong BUT... as they showed the replay you could see, that he had a bad view. He was behind Ricky, so he just saw Ricky throwing and hitting (the rope) something. He hought it was the head ok, fault, had never anything to to with the outcome, ref are also only human beings, get over it!!!

I still can't believe, that Ricky Hatton's fighting style is based on an illegal tactic and that he can't do anything else!!! I mean you ppl have to understand, that his fighting style is illegal or at best at the judging hand of the ref. It's not allowed to hold and punch. It's not allowed to have your head on the chest of your opponent (even though you have to say, that he never hits with his head). It's not allowed!!! And I think to a degree the ref allowed Mayweather's Elbow, because who thought that Mayweater was just preventing the head coming to his. Which doesn't mean it's correct, but that's the way it is. Mayweather can do it all... Hatton can just do one thing!!!
