Win or Lose tonight, Calzaghe will get no credit at all...

Hopkins was in consecutive victories against Tarver and Wright..

Maybe he deserves it? Since he himself and a lot of his fans claim Hopkins is old, overrated, no legend etc.

**P4PKING_2008** · 04-19-2008, 07:49 AM

True. But, it will only apply if he wins via ko and moves weight to fight Pavlik, Taylor, Wright etc. He is 36 and this is his biggest fight when hes past his prime. Frank Warren what a ****.

This is like Calzaghe complaining that Hopkins is a dirty fighter. If he's a dirty fighter - don't take the fight. You knew it, you've known it.

If Calzaghe gets no credit for the outcome regardless - then he shouldn't have taken the fight.

If he loses he was an overated limey and if he wins narrowly he got lucky and Hopkins was "too old".

Some times even if you win, you lose. Dawson got that and I expect Calzaghe to receive the same treatment.

Thats no one but Joes fault...for waiting til he was 36 to fight someone elite....Its his fault....HE WILL NOT GET CREDIT FROM THE MEDIA...Win or lose.

Its his fault..his career is **** as far as a resume....He has to beat Miranda...Pavlik.....Jones Jr....Dawson...Taylor....Tarver...he has to literally beat atleast 4 of these guys to gain my respect...If Ca;lzaghe retires after this fight with Hops...hes a joke and wont make the hall of fame...

Amir Khan and Hatton seem to be the only Euro fighters with ballz.

It's gonna be hilarious if Joe wins, and then he'll(And his fans too) always bring up Hopkins as one of his best wins even after saying all of these things:

-Hopkins is too old
-Hopkins is/was overrated
-Hopkins fought smaller fighters
-Hopkins is no legend
-Hopkins is just a b-side fighter
etc etc

No offense, but really? Is this their logic? They are the ones that discredit this fight for Calzaghe and then they're gonna complain if no one gives credit to Joe if he wins?

Win or Lose tonight, Calzaghe will get no credit at all...
