Joe beating B Hop (which he really lost) and maybe beating a Roy of now, is a crock of ****. In his prime Roy Ko in 5. Now MAYBE Roy by DC.

    And what you say doesnt mean ****. Look mat your Fav. fighters. You like Enzo? It just proves you are a Euro nut hugger.
    Neither Jones or Hopkins wanted any part of Joe several years ago. Jones admitted to Brian Kenny on FNF last year that he didn't want to risk fighting JC or DM when both were legitimate opponents for him at his peak because there was too much risk and little reward back then. When Brian then asked Jones what's changed that he's willing to fight Joe now, Jones said, "I have nothing to lose."

    And NO, Joe didn't "really lose" to Hopkins unless you're completely biased in scoring the fight. That was a clear victory for Joe.

        This was because Joe's punk ass WOULDNT fight in America. Roy was the champ, why does he need to follow the challenger? **** that slappin ass *****. And Bernard exposed Cals. Cals fought B Hops fights and B Hop countered him to death. CalsSlappy slapped all ****in night. Look at your top 3, it is CLEAR that you are a NUT HUGGER.

          Calzaghe owned Hopkins during the second half of the fight and made him pretend to get hit with a low blow to get a break from Joe's non-stop aggression and most likely having to quit. If running, holding, faking getting hit low and being out punched and landed at a 2 to 1 rate is "B Hops" fight, then yeah Joe fought it.

            Whatever, B Hop had enough rounds including a KD. B Hop won 6 rounds to 6 with the KD the winning point. But who cares about that. Post something that I'm lieing about on the first part. Joe wouldnt fight in America. You and I know the truth.

              Kai Kauramaki 13-13-0

              Lee Blundell 23-4-2

              Ayitty Powers 11-4-1

              How on earth can Pavlik's fans or management argue that the fight should've taken place?
              The funny thing is you talk **** about Lockett but you being a calzaghe nuthugger dont admit how Joe has faced bums in most of his career while padding his record, i mean pavlik made a title defense against lockett, but calzaghe has made title defenses against Ashira, Sobot, Ferreyra, Thornberry, Starie, McIntyre, Jiminez and god knows how many more bums.

                This is getting comical, Calzaghe was "non stop aggression" in the Hopkins fight? When? Maybe at the Press Conf. - one that Hopkins wasn't at in person - because it sure as hell wasn't in the ring.

                Cazlaghe is a joke who has fought a total of 3 decent opponants in his entire career - can you say "protected"?!

                If Joe EVER wanted RJJ in his prime, he would have flew across the pond and fought the Champ - but he didn't - why? Because he knew he would get embarrassed, hell, he may get embarrassed by Jones even now.

                If it looks like a duck and walks like a duck - it's a DUCK - and CALZAGHE DUCKED PAVLIK, and it doesn't matter what any of you nuthuggers say because you are only fooling yourself as usual.

                I recall all you UK nuthuggers saying Hatton would KILL Mayweather too, I'll bet you still haven't quit crying over that one.

                    Recognize these gems?

                    Steve Frank
                    William Bo James
                    Andrew Council
                    Simon Brown
                    Syd Vanderpool

                    These are some of the gems Hopkins defended his paper title with. His vacant belt that he beat Segundo Mercado (???????????) to win.

                      I bet your a member of the calzaghe nuthugging clan arent you? funny thing is you still dont answer my question, Calzaghe in 14 years of his boxing career has faced only three names from which two were past their prime, both gave him tough fights. He made title defenses against around 12-14 bums padding his record yet you guys talk **** about Pavlik who has been a pro in less time than Calzaghe yet beat Miranda, Taylor, Taylor II. In short time he is already considered the undisputed undefeated middleweight champion of the world who is in the P4P List as well, it took Calzaghe 14 years to get status and defending against cab drivers at home. The thing that gets to me is the pathetic double standards, talking about Pavlik defending against a nobody when Joe is known for doing that for most of his career. Out of 20+ title defenses people probably know about 2 of them.
