Taken from the last thread that got too big.

Who is the smarter fighter? Who has a higher boxing IQ? In ring smarts..adjustment? Defense? Footwork?

Keep in mind boxing is more than "punches"

[halford_saints]

IMO Hopkins is second to none in this aspect right now
except maybe for Floyd

[SuperKing]

Hopkins by a country mile.

Hopkins by a country mile.

Why do you say that?

When they faced each other Joe won...

[Pugilistic™]

Hopkins overall is a better fighter than Calzaghe. His footwork, defense and in ring smarts are hard to match.

Calzaghe's ability to adapt in the ring is impressive though.

I'ma vote Calzaghe just to piss people off.

I agree with this.. I don't like the topic creator, he is a psycho-path and that is why he is on my ignore-list. He has some kind of hate for white fighters, then he blatantly lies and says no he likes Vitali, yet he makes topics attacking Calzaghe and Vitali on a daily-basis. Yet, he purposely attacks all white fighters. He is a ****ing utter ******, and he should be committed to a hospital before he hurts others or himself.
