    The BBC reference? It was BBC radio specifically, and it's been reference here multiple times in the last day. First time I've seen you up here, Mick, so I'm not surprised you've missed it.
    Which media outlets scored it for Hopkins?
    Right now I have:
    Yahoo Sports
    BBC Radio

    Any more?

        I still think Bernard Hopkins was the better man that night. It was a very close fight anyhow, but I had Hopkins winning slightly. To get a really unbiased perspective you must watch the fight without sound and only focus on the boxing skills and how professionals score points. And especially with fights like this, you must really look closely and bring your A game as far as analyzing fights go.

          I never said everyone one in Britain. Learn how to read.

          The fight was only shown on ONE channel. Every person who was showing the fight at the time... had Calzaghe winning. And at 4.30am it was most certainly the only channel showing it. I hope your really unhappy that Hopkins lost, it only makes me more pleased.
          LOL, so much for the open mindedness you preached earlier......what more can I say for a guy who swallows everything the broadcasters spoon feed him and can't look at something objectively.

          If you had HBO I'm sure you Lampley, Merchant and Lederman would all agree that PBF lost his last 5 fights........Haha. I mean they said DLH won and they broadcasted the fight.......ROFL

            jesus h christ, are you completely ******?

            I made a point. Which is a fact. On Setanta sports, the only channel which was showing the fight - hence the only tv coverage in Britain. They all had Calzaghe winning.

            I never said I believed them.

            I never said who I thought had won.

            I just made the point that they had chosen Calzaghe.

            Do you understand this idiot? I think you have a complete lack of sense or intelligence. You choose. Or maybe I should ask Setanta Sports what they think? huh?

                hmmm....hmmm, but excuse me your bull**** is getting pretty pathetic. You say **** and then dont even stand by your own statements.

                YOU Said that "FUNNY HOW EVERYONE ON SENTANA" had Calz winning as a DIRECT Rebuttal to Addison who claimed that the Majority of Media had Hopkins winning, you even Quoted Addison in that post.......Stand by your **** dumb ass.

                Your were attempting to assert that American media had Hopkins winning and British Media had Calz winning when that plainly wasn't true.
                American tv pundits said B-Hop won. British said otherwise.
                When Addison said BBC thought he won, you were saying.....BBC didn't broadcast it and tried to discredity them by saying they didn't broadcast it. Why because the BBC going for Hopkins would put huge ****ing HOLES in your bull**** assertion that "American tv pundits said B-Hop won. British said otherwise."

                So yeah, go back and rewatch the Setana broadcast so you can hear people validate the oppinion that THEY GAVE you.

                  You are mentally disabled.

                  British tv pundits said...that Calzaghe won. Understand this PLEASE...only ONE CHANNEL SHOWED THIS!! THERE WAS ONLY 4 PUNDITS IN BRITAIN ON TV AT THE TIME!!!

                  Why are you so ******?!

                  You are a typical NSB ******. I'm not even making an arguement, just a mere point which is the truth and you can't handle it.

                  Fine!! Whatever, i don't care what different stations thought, they could have said Calzaghe flew to the moon in round 4 but came back in time to hear the sound of the bell. I don't care. It's not the point i'm making ******.

                  ON SETANTA SPORTS. THEY SAID CALZAGHE HAD WON. ON THE TV IN AMERICA THEY SAID BERNARD HAD WON APPARENTLY. I THOUGHT THIS WAS STRANGE, SO I MENTIONED IT.

                  Why the need to defend Addison, we were having a civil conversation before you brought your slow ass in here.

                    Speaking of the media and this fight.. HBO ****ing crucified Hopkins during the bout. They were letting him have it. They made disparaging remarks about virtually everything involving Hopkins past, present, and future.

                      I'm not defending Addison, I'm just like seeing how many claims a guy can make and attempt to make points then turn around and say they didn't say anything and claim they are "speaking facts".

                      Psssss. here's a little secret your WRONG, the HBO crew of Mercant, Lampley and "where's my seeing eye dog" Ledderman had it for Calz.

                      That pretty much brings your claim of
                      Whats funny is...American pundits thought Hopkins won. British thought Calzaghe won. It's funny because it displays the bias in full effect.
                      ...........****s on your claim a bit doesn't it
