    What he said in that interview was a bunch of things and you can clearly hear that he is bitter about this loss particular. I remember watching this fight 3 times, thinking Calzaghe won the fight because of the later rounds, both not fighting a good fight. It was a clash between two of the most slick fighters of this era.

    You gotta love Hopkins though, he speaks in an interview for like 40 minutes straight and is entertaining all the way through, saying some things that I find valuable. In Hopkins we have something exceptionally unique.

    Legend.
    Too bad he cant take a loss like a man, i used to be a fan but some of the things he says and all the rolling around on the floor crying about low blows and whatever else he feels like whining about turned me off. To me its a shame when a fighter tries to pull that nonsense, its embarassing and Hopkins is getting bad for it.

      I agree, but still even though he did that, the match was close. Really close and could've gone either way depending on the day imo. I still feel like Joe stole it in the end.

          Hopkins got taken to school and he won't let it go. Calzaghe would have eaten Hopkins alive in a rematch.

            Calzaghe would be his biggest payday by far.

            No wonder he wants Joe.

              Hopkins was an embarrassment that night.

                Hbo's highlight video shows Calz jail raping Hopkins in it. It's sad when thats the biggest highlight of a dull fight.

                  Calzaghe and Lennox beat everyone they faced. No reason to comeback and fight losers.
