      Hopkins was an easy win for Calzaghe. He never pressured Joe, and Joe easily slapped his way to a decision. The Lacy win was more impressive to me because Lacy actually threw something. That Hopkins win was not as close as people say. Everyone I was watching with said that they believed Joe won convincingly.

          even if you don't like hopkins, you have to respect him. it's different to the other "old school" fight in our era james toney.

          Toney just acts like a **** in interviews and gives no intelligent insight to fights, hopkins speaks the truth.

                The fact that Calzaghe beat this marvelous human being is why I consider Joe to be an ATG.

                Calzaghes legend grows with BHop

                  Hopkins was shot hen Calflaggy fought him. Just before against Tarver and Winky, ATG. Just after with Kelly Pavlik, ATG. But when Calflaggy fought him he was past it and out of shape.
