    His own dad didn't think he won the fight
    Please ignore Flawless.

    Hes doing his "Im gonna act blatantly ******ed to get people to respond to me" bit.

      Hey Calzaghe:
      1. No one wants to see that rematch anyway.
      2. B-Hop wants Roy first and foremost.

      4. Styles make fights. Calzaghe was made to beat Hopkins, he's just too active for B-Hop.


      I. It was Hopkins that asked for the rematch you douche.
      2. B-Hop stated that he wanted Calzaghe or Roy. He said he didn't care which.
      3. You mean like Pavlik was just too active for Hop?

      Well done.

        Yes, go get some proof from AFTER THE FIGHT that Enzo Calzaghe thinks Joe lost. You can't. That's why you're clutching at straws right now. If Enzo thought Joe lost the fight, we would know.

        You must be new to boxing if you never heard a trainer tell a fighter to go for KO in the last round. What should he say during a close fight, "you're doing great, just coast along to the finish"? The rounds were close, no doubt he was urging Joe on, that's all it is. Simple fact is you're reading way too much into it.

          I think that last post pretty much sums it all up. Lets just role on 8th November to shut these ignorant "boxing fans" to sleep

            You keep asking if I'm new to boxing, I've been involved for 20 years, but I'll rebound the question back to you in a moment.. Most trainers who believe their fighter has the fight won by the 11th round will tell their fighters to do exactly that: "out box him, stay away from danger and don't expose yourself by trying to KO him unless there's a genuine chance". So are you new to boxing?

              No. 31 years of following this sport, and 3 years of actual boxing.

              We're talking about a close fight. Again, what do you expect a trainer to tell his fighter?

              Oh man. Don't even answer. I can't be bothered with going over the same old horse**** over and over again. I'll say one thing: not one person in this thread has changed a single opinion I hold about the Hopkins-Calzaghe fight. Not one.

              So why am I even debating this?

              That's it. I'm out.

                End of the 11th round -

                A trainer who thinks it's close but that his fighter is winning: "out box him, stay away from danger, win the round".

                A trainer who thinks his fighter will lose and can't win on points: "you've got to stop him, you have to knock him out".

                Enzo was the latter in Hopkins fight.

                  At 3:06 Dawson talks smack about Calzaghe.

                    Calzaghe is pretty much right...

                    The only person who really would be left after Jones (who isn't really in the spotlight anyway at this point) would be Chad Dawson. Everyone else is coming off a loss recently who would have been worth fighting.

                    I think he can retire without worrying about Dawson though...

                      u just said, dawson's fight w/ johnson was much closer than the calzaghe fight w/ hopkins........................

                      BUT you went on to post that the hopkins fight was very tight, could've gone eithewr way, and you scored it a draw.....plus the fact it actually ended in a SD........i dont know what world you live in, but a fight can't get any closer than that..............

                      calzaghe says he's retiring, but like i said, money talks........this just gives me more motivaiton to root for roy jones on the 8th, so calzaghe can retire w/ a beating....

                      but who kno's roy might give calzaghe a rematch just to spite hopkins. could happen. roy and calzaghe are both ******* in my book.......
                      I had Johnson over Dawson by a few rounds, IMO that decision was a joke, hence why i said the fight was closer. Granted that was a bad choice of words, but what i was trying to put accross was that Calzaghe performed better against Hopkins the Dawson did against Johnson, take into account that Hopkins is a better fighter then Glen Johnson I dont think Calzaghe needs to fight Dawson to cement his legacy. Considering the vast majority on here are backing RJJ to beat him, I think a win in that fight will cement his legacy enough.

                      But then again, i think we all know that most on here will be saying Roy is a shot fighter if Calzaghe wins.
