    Calzaghe pulled off a amazing feat, by robbing a American in America.

    I thought that was only possible in Europe?

          for calzaghe? how in the world did calzaghe win 8 rounds? makes no sense. hopkins outlanded calzaghe by a wide margin in at least 6 rounds but i'm guessing you gave those to calzaghe anyway because he marched forward!

            whoa easy there dude - don't classify a nation of 300 million people into the ethnocentric american stereotype. I had it Calzaghe 116-111. Hopkins definitely stung Calzaghe with some shots, but Calzaghe made Hopkins look foolish for the most part by getting in and out and out speeding, and out thinking him.

                It was pretty clear Bernard won 6 rounds + the KD = won the fight

                  Exactly my opinion with my score 116-112. I actually found it hard to give Hopkins anything definitive. Maybe that's because i actually dislike watching him, and unless he's fighting a worth while opponent, I normally wouldn't bother. And I'm a guy who likes to ge to the fightd EARLY and watch every little 4 rounder all the way down to the walk-out fight.

                  The fact is that Calzaghe found Hopklins' style difficult, but handled him easily enough to win well, making a fool of him in the process. Half the time he was pplaying with him, showing Hopkins' helplessness.

                    I score rounds based on punches landed not slaps missed.
