    Calzaghe lost the fight to Hopkins and was wrongly awarded the victory. This is not my opinion. Watch the fight with an unbiased eye and you'll realise this is a fact.

    Calzaghe doesn't want to give Hopkins a rematch. This is not my opinion. Listen to Calzaghe's interviews and you'll realise this is also a fact.

      Lol. Even though I think Calzaghe has more power than people give him credit for, that's a pretty funny line.

        Bhop held like the entire fight, and barely threw any punches himself but landed most of what he threw. Bhop wasn't warned about the excessive holding or his head-butts.

        Cry me a ****ing river, about him getting robbed when he made one of the worst fights in history and was fighting illegally and no points deducted probably because bhop owns part of golden promotions and they're the ones who pay joe cortez his checks.

          Calzaghe was actually known as a power puncher before his hands started giving him trouble, I think he was 25-0 with 23 knockouts before the Reid fight.

            He held later on in the fight when he got tired. But there was hardly a stage in the fight when Calzaghe consistently landed clean punches on Hopkins. Hopkins landed the cleaner harder shots and made Calzaghe look foolish at times. In fact, why don't you go on to youtube, and try and find some clips where Calzaghe lands some clean punces?

            I really don't understand how people could score this fight for Calzaghe. And I'm not a Calzaghe hater. I've followed his career for a long time and have a lot of respect for him. But like it or not, he didn't beat Hopkins.

              Funny one of the biggest crybabies threatening people's lives online would call anyone else out on crying. Hypocrite.

                they weren't legit knockout victories. watch his fights even before his "injury" he lands flush and people don't get hurt.

                  Of course there were some questionable stoppages, as there are with almost every fighter, most of the time, his opponents got hurt though.

                    branko sobot stoppage was way early and he wasn't hurt in the slightest. juan ferrari quit on his stool. sheika wasn't hurt at all and was landing punches on calzaghe when the ref stopped it. those were his only stoppages during his "power punching" phase.

                      Sheika got stunned quite a few times in the fight and a lot of opponents got hurt by Calzaghe when his hands were healthy, he even managed to stun Eubank who had a very good chin, he wasn't the biggest puncher but he can punch and his punches still affect his opponents now.

                      And as I said, every fighter has questionable stoppages or have had opponents retiring in between rounds.
