Hopkins vs. Calzaghe: 160 Clinches

[S A M U R A I]

Here's some stats for you. I counted the clinches playing the video at 2x speed (it's hard work watching this snoozefest) but the numbers should be accurate. There were quite a number of times Hopkins tried to hold but failed. These failed attempts are, of course, not counted. Near the end of round 11, Hopkins tried to bait Calzaghe into a brawl, so Calzaghe came forward... and they clinched. LOL.

Total = 160


Even more clinches in this fight than Hopkins against Winky Wright (127). Is it any wonder why Calzaghe looked like crap in this fight?

damn...................

[Silencers]

That is a lot of clinches.

[MANGLER]

Fight was decent but it damn sure had a lot of slow spots and clinches. Hatton would be proud of Joe.

Almost all clinches were initiated by Hopkins.

Punched, then clinched to be fair!

[Stimpy]

I hated that fight vs. Winky so...soo much.

I was being fair by not including the attempted clinches! Honestly, I'm trying to be nice to Bernard.

As a contrast, I watched the Hopkins vs. Johnson fight again last night. The guy was wicked back then (1997).

Definitely. How many clinches were there in the Calzaghe-Kessler fight? Then compare that with how many clinches there were in the Hopkins-Winky fight.

Calzaghe looks like crap all on his own...........Bernard just helped.

Against certain fighters like Trinidad and Tarver.......Hopkins dominated and look good in there. Fighting a slapper in Joe and a guy with a Turtle defense like Winky helped in making the fights ugly.
