" U need a Knockout Joe " - Enzo Calzaghe

[Xplosivo]

Enzo knew Hopkins was winning and joe needed a knockout or atleast a knockdown or two

I thought it was a close fight,for a 43 year old to push Calzaghe the way he did was outstanding anyway,i think Hopkins could have won it by the KD,what i found intresting was Enzo telling Calzaghe " Joe u need a knockout,go for the KO " and after the fight,Calzaghe and his team didnt look too confident,i dont know,it was close..

I dont think Joe wants to fight Pavlik,before the fight,he kept saying Pavlik is the only fighter that gets his juices flowing,and he only wants the Pavlik fight,now just a minute ago,he said he wants to become the legend killer,and fight Jones,a pointless fight IMO

Trainers say that a lot to keep a fighter focused. I don't think they were really concerned. They were also telling him a few rounds before that Nard was ready to go, and that wasn't reality either

****** thing to tell Joe before the 12th when he had the fight in the bag. You could see Joe loading up on some punches that could have gotten him knocked out, had Bernard been a little fresher.

I agree,i saw so many Calzaghe punches that if Bernard was faster and hit with more snap could have put Calzaghe down,sometimes Calzaghe would wind a punch which u could see coming from a mile away,and slap it,Hopkins also seen them coming,but he just ducked,didnt make him pay

Enzo was like You better not lose to this negro. LOL well at least thats what I saw. He went crazy on Joe

[rebmogul]

Enzo was right. Calzaghe clearly won the fight. But a KO leaves no doubt.

Especially when you have a dillusional judge giving a fight Joe Calzaghe clearly won to Hopkins!

I agree. What can possibly be the problem with Bird?

Hopkins looked tired, Calzaghe didn't.

Calzaghe outworked him to get a deserved decision.

When Joe shortened up his punches and smothered Hopkins on the inside, he did pretty good. When he tried to wind up, he missed 98% of the time and left himself wide open. If Joe would have gotten stopped in the 12th, he should have fired his dad.

hopkins was a victim of robbery once again he won that fight

pffffffffffff Enzo may be ******, but he has better spelling then that Bishop

To me Calzaghe looked jubilant after the fight, like he didn't have any doubt. He shouldn't have had any reason to. But all credit to Hopkins for being an amazing physical speciman at 43.

Joe's body language was clear by about the fourth or fifth round. He knew he had the fight won and kept it cautious.

That's a little disappointing
