      Hopkins has the better resume

      skills vs resume

      I'm going with skills, past prime Calzaghe clearly beat Hopkins and **** ****d him.

      Calzaghe >>> Hopkins
      he didnt clearly beat hopkins, it was a close fight (hopkins was past prime and 43 years old)

      hopkins has better skills, you cant even debate that

          As for "following you around", i wouldnt exactly have to be Poirot to find you. It wouldnt be a Calzaghe thread without at least 15 posts from you.
          Sure you don't. LOL@you justifying your toolish, stalker ways.

            Easy logic that Calzaghe sycophants will never understand.

                Hopkins rates higher for me. Before lacy joes cv is pretty poor but after lacy it is decent. How decent really depends on how good kessler turns out to be. Rjj was obviously well on the slide. On the calzaghe hopkins fight i had joe winning that one even though it was close. Hopkins just didnt do enough for me and his low blow rolling around didnt do him any good imo

                  8 rounds? lol they would "Ricky Hatton" his ass. real talk.

                    Hopkins was 43! How active does a 43 need to be? What did that fightprove? It proves Joe was desperate to padd his resume to save comparisons to Sven ottke or Marciano, 0 and 1 trick pones at best. Apparently he fail. However i agree on the Kessler part, if Kessler turns out to be a world class fighter i will cut Joe some slack. Beat Dawson, Direll and the other top fighters and he can save Joe. But why the hell would his handlers keep him in Denmark when he's damn near 30 if not already? Obviously they know something we don't. Same as when Ricky's sparring was being hidden. They always know something we don't.

                      Only the biggest Joe boyfriends like Dirk think that Joe wouldn't get destroyed by a Prime Jones.
