Did Joe really beat Hopkins?

[Addison]

I watched the re-play 3 times. What amazes is the quickness of some of Calzaghe's shots, especially when he's moving in and out of range. Just a flick and sweat flies from Hopkins' head. Calzaghe really is amazing with his hand speed.

And we got you checking in on the scores?

Sorry nationalist fanboy, but I'll take the word of the majority of the media seated ringside and the Associated Press. They ALL scored it in favor of Bernard Hopkins. Not that I needed confirmation..

Harold Lederman also scored it decisively for Calzaghe. But, if I was "nationalistic", I would have given the fight to Hopkins regardless of whether or not he actually won or not. Oh....sorry....that's what you're doing. So who is the "nationalistic fanboy" here? LOL

Hang on, apart from the KD, Hopkins ran backwards for 12 rounds, clinched any time Calzaghe got close and disgracefully feigned injury on more than one occasion. There is no way he won that fight. At best he may have won two rounds, admittedly one of those was 8-10.

Who ever says that Hopkins aint land enough of clean punches, please tell me how Calzaghe landed more?

Those were all misses. Saying he didn't do enough is ****** cause in my book Hopkins did more. Boxing is not about throwing and missing, but by the way scoring goes now, you throw more and miss and you still win.

Not true. If that were the case, De La Hoya would've beat Mayweather, yet I gave PBF 9 rounds in that fight, as did many others. Most experts gave Floyd 8 rounds, even with DLH throwing more and missing like a maniac.

Look at the Compubox numbers. I've never been one to say that a fight's outcome could be determined by the Compubox numbers, but when one guy is given credit for landing nearly twice as many as the other guy, it's pretty convincing (127 by Hop, 232 by Joe).

Harold Lederman?? That's how we KNOW Hopkins won.

And if I'm nationalist then why did I pick Hatton??

And if I'm nationlist then why did I pick Hatton??

I gave him 3 rounds, i could maybe see the 7th being shared but i gave it to Calzaghe because he heavily outworked him.

Anyone who gave Hopkins more than 4 rounds in that fight is insane or bias. Anyone arguing it is just plain ******ed.

Yeah, you're right. Hatton souds just like a California surfer dude.

[beez721]

EXACTLY. Using these rules, BHOP won an easy to score UD.

It was an HBO con job.

hopkins didnt do enough to win the fight. I dont even think it was that close
