      what's the fuzz about hopkins fighting joe in his prime??? joe beat bernard fair and square. please stop making comments that hopkins is past his prime.

      people who said that do not know the sport. no one will remain champion a forever, somebody has to beat the champ and in case of hopkins, it was joe who is destined to stop hopkins. it is destined in the stars that joe calzaghe will retire hopkins. even if this fight was done ten years ago, joe will beat still hopkins. the white boy is simply the wittier of the two.

        Imagine a prime Calzaghe. He would have stopped Backdoor Bernard.

            Hopkins definitely took Calzaghe out of his game plan. I think prime B-Hop takes him by UD along the lines of 116-112.

                Maybe a prime Hopkins (although this version is 95%) would have fought more and got knocked out who knows.

                But like i said any Calzaghe beats any Hopkins.

                95%?!!! if 100 percent is hopkins best days, hopkins is at 75%. And you are on rocks if you think any version of joe beats any version of bernard.
