So does this make Joe Calzaghe's win over Hopkins look even better?

    as long as people still pretend he won i'm gonna be there to prove he didn't. and since his legacy is entirely based on being undefeated it makes it all the sweeter.

      Only one place you're going to make money, that's MGM.

      Nobody would pass an opportunity like that to face a challenger in his back yard.
      Hopkins rejected a $3m offer which was the highest payday of his career at that point in 2001 to fight in America on Showtime. A further offer was made to him in 2003 which was again, rejected.

          i thought the point of this thread was to prove how great calzaghe was because he "beat" hopkins. i didn't even start the thread. i'm just proving he didnt deserve to win that fight with actual evidence while everyone who thinks calzaghe won is left to studder like pascal "ba ba ba because he threw more!"

            i am not a hater I just know that calzaghe lost & was made to look like a wild swinging amateur while being countered with solid shots. the judges took the fight from hopkins so the TS point is laughable. calzaghe gets no credit for a fight that he got a gift in..

            calzaghe ran from the rematch.

            i can never respect that. hopkins is a top notch ATG.

              why are people who think the guy who lands all the clean punches while making the other guy miss called haters? i "hate" when people are robbed more than anything in boxing but a lot of these posters are just calzaghe fanboys who don't care about integrity as long as their man gets the decision.

                Calzaghe fanboys?

                Calzaghe is far from being a popular fighter. When the vast majority of fans, the pundits etc say he won that gives you an indication.

                  calzaghe was rushing in with his hands down throwing slaps (which were being counted as SOLID landing blows lol) thats when hopkins came farward & countered him with actual solid shots....

                    its opinion dude are you that daft to not understand it. the fact is your opinion count for jack **** when it comes to history books as it will always say calzaghe beat hopkins no matter how much you dont agree with it , its sport different judges mite have scored it for hopkins maybe not we will never know now. btw on another note pascal isnt even a top elite fighter he caught chad on a bad night imo

                      opinion based on facts. the facts i use are hopkins clearly outlanding calzaghe in clean hard punches in at least 7 out of 12 rounds. you can't dispute this since i have video evidence of it. now what facts do you base your opinion on?
