The truth about Calzaghe Hopkins 2002

[Lead Cenobite]

Hmmm Calzaghe was pretty old himself when he fought Hopkins and Jones, also i think peeps need to watch the shots Calzaghe took off Mitchell, highly unlikely either Hopkins or Jones would have been able to get back up after being hit like that.

This is the worst argument of all time. "Pretty old himself". yeah. Wars again BRYON MITCHELL ruined him. HAHAHAHAHAHAA.

Jeezzzz did Calzaghe beat a lot of Americans .

17 in total I believe, including one of their top prospects Jeff Lacy and two supposed legends Roy Jones Jr. and Bernard Hopkins in their own backyard.

It upsets some, but that is natural.

It's sad because you aren't even trolling. If you were trolling i'd give you kudos on a delusion well done.

But yeah, "legends" like Roy who were destroyed four years prior to Slap boy ever getting to them. Yup. But he certainly beat them in their prime.

Why don't you show us your Mayweather Hatton "scorecard" again so we can all have a good laugh at what an idiot you are.

Calzaghe wasn't necessarily in his prime either, but he beat them (they did not beat him) and crucially, in the US - their backyard, not his.

Speak for yourself bro, your red bars show that not too many people care for your 'expert' opinion. My scorecard took into account the bias shown by Cortez, the same ref who tried to hand the B-Hop/Calz fight to the home fighter (no surprise there).

If he really said it then yeah he obviously ducked hopkins.

The reason why I find it hard to believe is because there are a lot of posters here who say Calzaghe ducked nobody. How can anyone say Calzaghe ducked nobody when they know he used the "im scared of flying excuse".

you got any links?

no but if they say it enough times they start to believe it

that and his fear of flying, which is one of the reasons for his reluctance to test himself in the US.

"He wouldn't get on a plane. He said he had a fear of flying. Yet I can remember after one fight he flew to the West Indies for a holiday!

i'm sure there are many more but look how easy it is to find a couple articles in a couple minutes of searching.

Aww poor old Hopkins fans still crying what is new?

Very bad losers.

yup all 10 or so of them are spoil sports...hopkins lost every fight where there is an L next to his name get over it...lol

Your signature is a whose who of overrated, overhyped assclowns.

47 title defenses, and that's just between 3 of the guys listed. However, in your deluded little word, they are overrated clowns.






You're a ****ing ****** bro!

how exactly did he try to hand the fight to hopkins? he didn't let hopkins fight on the inside at all even when he had hands free. seems like that helps calzaghe immensely since he can't fight on the inside and hopkins couldn't take any breaks. resetting the action gives calzaghe a big advantage because it allows him to get off more ineffective slap flurries. hopkins would have done much better with almost any other ref but don't let that get in the way of your rhetoric.

hopkins may have been the home fighter but calzaghe was the A fighter in that fight. the judges, ref, crowd, and hbo all favored him because they were priming him for bigger things to come(roy jones ppv was basically agreed upon already). hopkins was old news and they wanted to get rid of him. why would the establishment want a 43 year old boxer to win? can't make much money off of him so they gave calzaghe the fight. some of the judges gave calzaghe rounds 2 and 3 when he got dominated and didn't even land anything clean. hopkins never had a chance to win that fight.
