    Old Hopkins was robbed, Bivol would make easy work of him.

        This will be the first time I've ever picked against Joe in one of these hypotheticals. Joe is my guy, but Bivol is too pure, fast, disciplined, defensive, and strong at 175.

          The same Calzaghe who only fought two times at 175 in his career and got dropped by 2 40yr olds in consecutive fights?

            What did Calzaghe accomplish at 175 besides beating 2 40yr old out of their prime guys and getting dropped twice in round 1?

              Read the whole thread its explained.

              I,ll save you the trouble.

              He did but he was tight quick straight punches and was good quality fighter, a lot better than Zurdo if I had to try and make a relative comparison.

              But I kinda glossed over the emphasis on 175, Cal was done at that weight and Zurdo probably beats him lol.

                Calslappy only fought the 43 year old Hopkins and a washed out RJJ at LHW. He has zero credibility at 175.

                Bivol schools him hard.

                  Bivol by UD.

                  And, Hopkins wasn't robbed. Watch the fight with your eyes not your a$$.

                      Shut up you cretin, another calslappy ****-rider. Shame your so called man didn't have the guts to get on aeroplane and cried off from fighting anybody for 10 years so he could throw his little egg-breakers at Omar Sheika and other garbage.

                      Go watch his big wins against elite fighters like err...nobody. Oh Peter Manfredo i guess...
