    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.
    After round 4 it was all Calzaghe. He simply peppered Hopkings to death. I've never seen Hopkins lose his composure before. It was indicative of the fact that he knew Calzaghe was strafing him. Two good right hands don't win a fight unless it results in a knockout. Calzaghe blew Hopkins out of the ring tonight.

        That's NOT FAIR. He may become an amateur judge and make the kids lose heart. You should have said "not any kind of judge"........It's a good job they have tests, but even the 114-113 judge passed tests.....I think every test except eyesight test.

          If he's talking about a clinching school, I guess he did.

            funny how hops keeps saying "I Think" when he was doing the interview. I think he must remebering and old fight of his when he actually did take an opponent to school. And that was just the tarver fight, I never knew you could get full blown alshiemerz that quikly in that you can't rmember what just happened to you.

              Secondly, he did get schooled by the better fighter. PERIOD.

                Exactly!!! Hopkins did prove nothing new. The same as always, try to bury your opponent and hit a few rights. For me he's not great!!! Some1 like Roy Jones, if he would have had a style, like running away from opponents, do you think somebody would catch him??? I mean that's all what Hopkins is, he's a Fall of Famer because of his title reign!!!

                But Hopkins otherwise as stated, do proved something new to me... and I'm not sure what it is, I have 2 oponions on it:

                Either he has the biggest penis in the World and had a hard one watching Joe (Bernard seems to like white boys!!!) or he's just a big piece of **** who also conducts himself in an unsportsmanlike way. Sorry for the choice of words, but something like that is a disgrace. If you play dirty and the ref allows it ok... but if you fake a low blow to maybe get a point deduction or a break... that's simply a joke, and it's even more a joke if you think how hard (in his pants) she ehh he is.

                I think from now on ppl should be really careful who they consider a joke... and if they do, they should be better not talk about Hopkins anymore... Joke

                  LOL! Hugkins has uncanny ability to turn a boxing match into a wrestling match. What taking calzaghe to school is he talking about? He lost a close fight, plain and simple although I agree that it could have gone the other way.

                      Hay that just B-hop. The man has no cooth, but hay he is what he is a great fighter worthy of respect as a fighter. From what I know and hear he's a dirt bag of a person but **** he's not a maniac like tyson or completly angury and put out like holmes. I think hops does a bit of talking for shock value but most of it is his pride talking.
