Did anybody else score it a draw?

I thought Calzaghe clearly won.

Hopkins didn't deserve the win although he scored his way to victory.

I was expecting a draw, frankly.

That doesn't make sense. If he had scored his way to victory then surely he would have deserved the win?

That doesn't make sense to you, yes?

He didn't deserve the victory in my eyes because he didn't press more. He couldn't de-program himself to be more aggressive. Did anyone find his cautiousness attractive? I agree with the Associated Press that Hopkins won the fight on clean and effective punching however. Begrudgingly.

I did ... 115 - 115 .. Just me? fair enough.

With presumably a two point round in there, you must of had three rounds even to come up with that score.

Sounds about right, I watched it again, still don't think Calzaghe didn't do enough to deserve the win. Hopkins by far landed the harder shots, dropped Calzaghe once and never got hit with any telling blows. Anyone remember De La Hoya vs. Mosley II? Outside of die hard Oscar fanboys, I know I was in the minority thinking Oscar won by outlanding Mosley by 90 or so punches, yet everyone told me Mosley "got outlanded, but landed the more telling and meaningful power shots". Oscar landed much more significantly on Mosley than Calzaghe did on Hopkins, anyone disputes that is simply lying to us and themselves.

I have no problem with that. IMO if a round doesn't have a clear winner, you should score it even.

I changed that, round 12 not 10 sorry and yeah, its not fair to the other fighter if i don't score it that way.
