PRIME B-HOP would WOOOOOP CALZAGHE

[Kball15]

Wouldnt be close. KO 10 or earlier. Im talking about the Hopkins that went out there in round 1 with every intention of ending his opponents careers. The guy that fought Trinidad or Johnson. THAT hopkins beats Cal everyday of the week and twice on sunday.

thoughts?

[Southpaw Stinger]

Well prime B-Hop was a middleweight.

But I do think he would beat Calzaghe.

[Jim Jeffries]

I'm guessing that you're thinking this is a prime Calzaghe.

Prime Calzaghe had power, much, much different fighter.

Yeah. I think that was made pretty clear tonight.

[Xplosivo]

I agree...........

[Cutthroat]

I thought Calzaghe was going to beat Hopkins up, but it was the opposite. Hopkins was schooling Joe with clean effective counter punching while all Joe did was throw nasty ass wild punches and occasionally land a left hand. All Hopkins had to do was be more aggressive because when he did Joe landed more but Hopkins landed harder more meaningful punches, a younger Hopkins was like that back then.


Calzaghe=a little above mediocre, I thought he was better than this.

[ElGranLuchador]

calzaghe is not in his prime as well
id say calzaghe prime vs hopkins prime ends up with joe winning

[Burner]

Yeah. I think that was made pretty clear tonight.

Hell yeah...It was sad knowing that Hopkins was handicapped by his age ....great performance by Hopkins....

[Neo_UK]

No way. Joe would have done better against a prime Hopkins IMO.


B-hop's game plan after getting the KD on Joe was to fight defensively. He was too tough to crack but Joe managed to.

[kayjay]

He'd get knocked out. Stop being a crybaby. Joe won
