Hopkins: "I Took Joe Calzaghe To School"

[BIGPOPPAPUMP]

Following his split-decision loss to Joe Calzaghe in Las Vegas, Bernard Hopkins was very upset with the official decision and said that he was robbed of a clear points win. He says that he took Calzaghe to school and the viewing public knows that he was robbed. [details]

Sad....he really didn't. I had him winning, but this was no schooling at all Bernard.

Talk about brain damage. C'mon Popkins, you're better than that, or maybe not LOL!

I'm not sure Hopkins was robbed, but I agree that the fight might easily have gone the other way. I had a feeling the judges would favour Calzaghe.

In a sense, I agree with Bernard that he "took Calzaghe to school", he certainly showed Calzaghe something he'd never seen before, and I don't think Calzaghe could say the same.

Bernard claiming he schooled Joe.

The only masterclass Bernard put on was of the "How to be a ****ing whinging cheat and still lose" variety.

It's called a lack of dignity

Did anyone find it funny when the judge no one even knew of had it for hopkins? Can you say that judge was paid off, while the other two judges who everyone knew of it gave it to the right man... LOL, I thought they were gonna rob joe for a second

[.Mik.]

With his behaviour after and during the fight, I'd honestly be ashamed to be a Hopkins fan.

Hey GodOfWar, I'm pretty sure they said at the beginning there was 2 Las Vegas judges and a Philadelphia one. I wonder which one gave it to Hopkins? Hahah!
