    I know you are one of the more ******ed people on this page (see: Ricky Hatton P4P #2) but really? When did this happen? In alternate reality British bias land?

      Hopkins entire career is a double standard.

        I use to defend b-hop and thought he won the fight but that was because i dissliked calzaghe,i started to like the guy his story should be made into a movie..he never had an proffesional trainer.

        Enzo calzaghe never boxed in his life,joe beat some good people,the way he fights is good..he trows lots of punches which is good..he also can take a punch.

                    No one changed their tune after the Pavlik fight. The only people who got super excited about that were Calzaghe nutboys.

                    Too bad you can get hard all you want to that fight but it was a simple style mismatch. Let me know when Pavlik proves he's worth a **** btw.
