    He was clearly landing punches. His jab was landing constantly and he got in some flush left hands. Hopkins didn't even have a jab. Calzaghe just went in and out with little flurries, which wins you rounds over Hopkins who threw 1 right hand and clinched, most of those right hands didn't even land properly and were hit on the gloves of Calzaghe, i think the worst of the right hands were in the first 4 rounds. After that i don't see any big right hands from Hopkins apart from the one that wobbled Calzaghe later on, but the only reason he got that right hand in is because he head butted Calzaghe.
    sorry dude, ive seen this fight about 5 times and i completely disagree. calzaghe might have threw his little flurries, but they mean **** to me if every single punch misses. the truth is, for the first 8 rounds, calzaghe did VERY little, was knocked down, and was getting hit with cleaner punches throughout. i scored it for hopkins but i guess i could see how a fan gives it to calzaghe. just my opinion.

      Calzaghe won it on my card by a couple of points but a lot of his shot were not effective it was a fairly close fight.

        Fight was close no doubt but Calzaghe won he was able to adapt to Hopkins arkwrad style like i've seen no1 esle do before so I give him props for that...

        I think even Sentanta Sports had it only 2 or 3 points difference...

              Look up some stats on how many punches Joe landed against Jones and Hopkins. Hopkins missed loads of shots but does that mean **** to you??

                  Here you go and you had the cheek to say Joe missed every single punch. % shows Hopkin is even lower than Joe % of punches landed. Your theory has failed.

                      You must have been watching the wrong fight. I scored it unbiased, i like both fighters, you clearly don't like Calzaghe though. Fair enough you don't like his style, but it won him the fight clearly.
