      it was a close tatical fight and i thought Calzaghe won. Round 7 was key RD as BHOP got into an exchange and almost KD Calzaghe again. I believe that BHOP could have won if he had been more aggressive and willing to trade, he had the better punch on that weight. BHOP KD Calzaghe in 1st round and never tried to put him down. In fairness, I think Calzaghe did low blow him and BHOP was not pretending to buy time. I had it 7 RDS Calzaghe, 4 RDS Bhop, one even, and with the KD Calzaghe wins 115-113 a narrow 2 point win.

        Exactly. Hopkins has adapted his style over the years and has aged better than 99% of fighters.

                    Oi don't underestimate this. The green hills of Wales have mystical powers. I should know.

                      I don't know why Calzaghe gets so much hate here, he was an excellent fighter and he did beat Hopkins. He made him look like a sissy.
