    no according to calzaghe fans it shows how scared hopkins was that he ran away from the slap master even though in reality it shows hopkins doing what is called boxing and setting calzaghe up for a punch that almost knocked him down.

      Cal did slap in his later fights, but he knew when to put mustard on his shots, namely when he went to the body and had no danger of injuring his hands or when a fighter showed a clear weakness to a straight right. It wasn't the "slaps" his opponents couldn't deal with, it was the fact that he was throwing about a thousand of them per fight with a very high connect percentage. Cal will never be looked at as a poster boy for orthodox boxing, but like a lot of great fighters he developed his own unique style and made it work.

        the low blows calzaghe threw were hopkins fault too. hopkins launched his genitals toward calzaghe's gloves! you would make a good writer for the sun. the spin master!

              Were Hopkins genitals on his belly button? Hopkins clearly faked at least one of those low blows and the replays show it.

                You lose credibility when you talk about "low blows". I mean I acutally think you can be an intelligent poster who makes good points - even about that fight - but when you blatantly talk ***** to support your point, you lose credibility.

                      this is pointless you refuse to debate using reality. his belly button? the punch hit him right in the cup. that really isn't open to debate. the debate is whether it was hard or not. obviously it didn't look very hard but to say it was fake is not being truthful.
