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

    score 3-minutes of every round - And it's hard near impossible to give it to Hopkins. If you had two Bernard's in there you wouldn't have a fight.

    I'm sorry, but if you spend long periods back-peddling not throwing punches whilst the other guy is hitting fresh air and even looking like crap - whilst occassionally shoeshining and scoring pitty-patty points - the guy hitting fresh air and tip-tapping is winning. A single right-hand clinch combo winning you the round would be a travesty.

      there are 6 parts. i didn't think i'd have to post all 6 parts because i thought you would be able to find your way to the other parts. i gave you too much credit i see.

          it's boxing there is no set way to win a fight. you can go backwards forwards side to side whatever. it's about hitting and not getting hit. hopkins did that much better than calzaghe.

          his game plan was to walk calzaghe into punches and he did that clearly. and when calzaghe got close he beat him up on the inside as well. even when it looked like calzaghe had success with his slap furries he was almost never landing. why would the guy not landing punches ever win a boxing match?

          some people really pervert the rules so their guy can get the win. clean punching all hopkins. defense all hopkins. effective agression all hopkins. ring generalship debatable i don't see anything here that says calzaghe deserved to win in any way. coming forward=win? so hatton was beating mayweather? same fight. one guy coming forward and getting countered. other guy countering and hardly getting hit.

              i break fights down in an honest way. what have i been saying that's not true? when i say hopkins clearly outlanded calzaghe with clean hard shots in at least 6 rounds it's because he did. i have video evidence of this that i have provided. i can see hopkins landing many more clean shots from the outside and inside while calzaghe lands barely anything. it's up to you to watch it. i can't make you watch it this isn't clockwork orange

                once again i use facts and you don't. yahoo, espn, and the ap all scored it for hopkins. froch and tyson both said hopkins won it. if you need links i can find them but come on do your own research before making things up out of thin air.

                    rafael scored it for hopkins. so much for your facts. your facts are about as good as calzaghe's punches. non existant.

                    Though Bernard Hopkins may not agree, Joe Calzaghe is still undefeated -- and already talking about who he wants next.

                    ESPN.com also had it 114-113 for Hopkins

                      Nothing could make Joe's win over Hopkins look good. Fight was utter shit.
