Let's all agree now. Calzaghe is an ATG.

Originally posted by SHB View PostI suspect his opponent had rather a lot to do with why Hopkins has looked so different in his last two fights. I didn't see any difference in his physical condition and it's a lot easier to last 12 rounds when you're the one controlling the pace.
Styles make fights and Hopkins fought the wrong style against Calzaghe. A combination punching Hopkins can beat Calzaghe.

Originally posted by Pullcounter View PostThe problem with this theory is that Hopkins could've easily potshotted Pavlik if he wanted to and still won. The fact that he didn't potshot and was commited to combination punching means Hopkins is looking to win decisively rather than looking to win narrowly.

Pav had nothing to do with him being able to run around punch in numbers and LAST all 12 rounds while not showing the old age of 43. Hop took off his "seat belt" and is looking for the KO'S while taking chances unlike in the past.
When he fought joe, he did not. His fans don't look at this. They are STILL trying to MAKE and force people into believing (lol good luck) Joe is not something of the great or an ATG. They can waste there time. He'll be lucky if he makes it into the HOF.......

Hopkins followed the loss with a schooling of the young, favoured undefeated Pavlik.
Even the yanks must now acknowledge. Joe Calzaghe is an ALL-TIME-GREAT!
Calzaghe is an over protected fighter with a ****ty resume...who didnt want to fight Pavlik..and now after Hops demolished him Cazaghe doesnt want a rematch...when Hops said hell go to England to fight him....
Please...
No one wil remember Calzaghe.

Joe has the relentlessness, skills, movement, feinting, tactics and adaptability that Hops could not handle, hence not looking so good and losing.

But yes you are correct. This is just one of reasons people dislike and will easily forget him.
Again, he will be lucky if he makes it into the HOF...
