    In such a close fight, every second counts.
    it cuts out the parts where no one is throwing punches. those parts where no one is engaging don't matter. or do you think calzaghe won those seconds because he did nothing better than hopkins did nothing?

      Whatever the case is, Hopkins wasn't ROBBED and I'll watch the fight again.

      Calzaghe beats bhop 20 years ago, 10 years ago, 3 years ago, today, tomorrow, in the street, in a boxing ring, in an airplane, at a bar

      He's a superior athlete and human being, it's that simple.
      That made me laugh. What he did to Hopkins wasn't anything close to a destruction.

        lets just keep **** real, is calzaghe some legend on par with Ali. the answer is a RESOUNDING NO. Does Calzaghe have better accolades over the course of his career then hopkins? another resounding NO. BUT, what matters, when they got in the ring together, both past their primes equally, and calzaghe proved he was the better man, plain and simple. calzaghe would have beat hopkins at any point in their respective careers.
        he wanted to miss 99 percent of his punches while getting countered over and over? wow he is good.

          if you clearly win at least 7 rounds and knock your opponent down doesn't that constitute robbery? you can't even make a case for calzaghe in any of those rounds because he's outlanded by the harder punches by such a wide margin. yes calzaghe did better at the end but too bad this is round by round basis and wasn't enough.

            Everyone says BHop made JC look bad in that fight (which is true) but he made himself look really bad, he seemed gassed after R3 and started falling to the floor feigning injury to take breathers. If I was a BHop fanboy I'd want to forget that fight rather than watch it in slow motion.

                116-111 in BHOPS home turf is a destruction sorry. If the fight was in the UK Bhop would only have round 1 LOL.

                As a long time calzaghe fan, nothing any of you say is going to piss me off. I've heard every excuse possible. Nothing will change history, nothing will change the record books, nothing will change the fact that calzaghe obliterated the SMW division and took on the 2 best LHW;s of his day.

                  To judge a fight without bias you have to see the whole fight. How does anyone know whats been cut has no punches being thrown?

                  Thats why watching the unedited fight is all that matters.

                  Also a fight isnt scored on punches being landed alone. Ring generalship, aggression, etc all count.

                    Hopkins was effectively aggressive and controlled the pace of the fight....

                      Bhops face was falling off at the end of the fight. I guess those "slaps" hurt more than they look LOL
