You are an idiot. Hopkins maybe won 4 rounds of that fight and had to pretend to suffer a low blow when Calzaghe's punches started making the sweat fly.
What Calzaghe did with Jones was carried a legendary champion to the end of the fight out of respect. He had no beef or personal vendetta against him; the fight was purely for money.
Of the three, Calzaghe is/was simply the best.
I laugh when people pull the "he fought two old guys" argument after watching what Hopkins did to Tarver, Wright, and Pavlik. Calzaghe was 36 after all; for a guy who relies on speed and stamina and had been boxing for 18 years to that point, that's pretty damned impressive. Anyone can tell you that those are the first two things to go.
Anyone who insults his boxing ability is simply a moron. There are no opinions about it; the man is simply the greatest to ever fight at 168, and a top ten all-time if we blend the 175 pound class into the fold.
I say this as an American who was rooting for both Hopkins and Jones to knock his smug, coked-up chin into oblivion.
Is that why Calaghe was SHOWBOATING like an ******* against Roy's corpse?
He was the best? Can I Have some of the GLUE YOU ARE SNIFFING?????
Reid, RJJ, and Hops all have quick counter right hands. Froch is so much slower. He has decent instincts, but his muscle's don't respond as fast as those other guys. He wont be able to land those same counter punches. Even then Calzaghe is too proud and fights back when dropped/hurt.
Roy was/is shot in that fight and super gun shy. You are right about the Froch right hand but pleae don't use RJJ as an example. He wouldn't even throw a punch when that ***** was mugging in front of Roy with his hands down. The end.
