to be honest i think hopkins is in a lot of ways a better fighter than when he fought jones...i actually think a crafty old hopkins was a harder fight than a more offensive hopkins would have been....im a calzaghe fan and no way was it was comfortable..i actually really enjoyed the fight despite the ugliness.
no way did calzaghe look unbeatable in that fight though...
the fact remains that hopkins used every trick in the book, no way did he look like like a spend force and calzaghe's will to win remained unshakable....i seriosuly thought he was going to lose the decision at the time....id like to see the hbo broadcast to see what the american commentators were making of it....
that first round was terrifying for calzaghe fans, joe looked like an amatuer for those rounds....soon as he dropped his hands and started feinting i knew he had it in the bag....not logical but other people who have followed calzaghes career will know what i mean...Comment

Prime hopkins would have got smoked by a prime Joe. If the opponent comes to fight calzaghe is 10x better. he hates chasing fightersComment
