    Bernard never looked older than in his last fight, and if his work rate was even 25% higher he would have beat Joe, possibly scoring another knockdown.

    Calzaghe just exposed his self.

    yea, but u actually still thought hopkins won by a point or two.........

    but i mean alot of fights get judged based purely on agression alone, and not progression.

          I've never said that Hopkins won by a point or two, to anyone on this board or otherwise. My prediction for the fight was always Calzaghe UD. Natas206 will vouche for that.

            Oh Warren would have taken the fight also. He knows Joe's next fight is probably his last. It was Joe and Enzo who made the decision.

            Warren and Arum both acknowledged that Kelly's camp were looking for the fight and that it was up to Joe. It was practically ready to go.

            Joe was not protecting Kelly, he just tried to save face. He was protecting himself.

                      ill say kelly cause so far wat i heard lock was JC sparring parther and was giving him problems. kelly tko him 3 round. But i dont care wat anybody says RJJ is still good. At middleweight he was unstoppable then he moved up weight did gd for a bit. As a boxer losing and gaining back weight dose a number on u. but anyway as far as JC fighting Kelly gd fight cause he's up and coming. Fighting RJJ still a gd fight though
