    I think Roy waited too long at times, and when he did open up he got punished, unlike Hopkins who to me a massive Calzaghe fan actually got the better of the exchanges a lot of the time. Roy still landed some beautiful counters none the less.

    Joe Calzaghe beat Hopkins for me on workrate, but Hopkins looked like the better fighter that night. Joe does still have something to prove there if he wants it, it's the only possible fight he could take,
    Great post, you've earned my respect for telling it like it is. Green K given. Respect.

      Because he gets hit quite a lot...and sometimes by good shots. He doesnt have incredible balance, he does have an impressive chin, the most impressive thing is how quickly he clears he his and gets back into the fight though. 4 times down, probably hasnt been down for the ten count for them all combined and at least 3 of those were solid knockdowns.

        I think he gets knocked down early because he takes so many chances. He puts himself into some very risky situations. It dangerous to do against a fresh fighter in the first couple of rounds, but I think Joe does it because he wants to scare the opponent with extremely hard pace. Unfortunatly he is the one being shocked if you look towards his last two fights.

        Do you guys think he will fight Dawson? Because it didn't sound like a speech of retirement from what I heard. And Max Kellerman brought up Dawson as the only one left. This is a chance for Joe to become much more appriciated in America - Will he pass out on this chance against an unexperienced fighter? Can he win?

          Canvass Joe would be schooled by Hopkins.

            Of course he would, because if they fight again Hopkins wont hide, hold, cry, fake, headbutt and generally act the cu**.
            Hopkins deliberately hid from Joe and threw the fight to line up a rematch! How clever is he?
            Wow, Hopkins to take joe to school, AGAIN!!!

            you twunt!
