Comments Thread For: Hopkins: Calzaghe Stays Retired Because I'm Still Here

[Ray*]

Ok Hopkins whatever makes you sleep better at night.. I hate it whenever a fighter retires then you get all this " He retired because of me" qoutes, Maybe the fighter has had enough and his mentally bored!!! But nah it's because he wants to avoid beating someone he already beat.

well joe threw and landed more punches that's true but 95% of those punches had no affect it's a fact..b-hop threw less but he connected more..if you look at their face after the fight you will see that joe looks much worse than bernard.

and yes vitali beat lenox..the crowd was against lewis after the fight..vitali was in front on the score cards and it's still a mistery why lewis didn't give him a rematch..if he was a warrior he would fight for a second time..but he knew the truth...he lost that night.

of course that cokehead is afraid .. and yall talkin about calzaghe "schooled" bhop lol GTFOH ... Bhop landed more meaningful blows while Joe was just throwin flurries hittin Hopkins elbows and shoulders but compubox was givin him credit even though he was missin, and Joe is a B*tch for retirin when you're in a controversial fight u should clear it up.

anyway Hopkins legacy is better than cokehead Joe by a mile or 2.. calzaghe is only a legend in Wales , Bhop is legend all over the boxing world.

bhop didn't know where he was at the end of that fight he kept goin to the wrong corner after every round and lay on the floor like a p.ussy complaing of low blows. Bhop got wooped simple as

For all the great things Hopkins has done in bxoing. I will still remember him for his ****** ass comments, RJJ/Hopkins2 and "i'll never let a white boy beat me".

Which is a real shame.

Joe made me a fan when he got off the canvas and knocked Byron Mitchell cold, too bad after that he fought like a woman.

I respect Bernard Hopkins but he's a dumb @$$ n!gga. Joe Calzaghe is over rated. If he would of fought Bernard Hopkins & Roy Jones in their early 30s he loses every round to Hopkins & Jones except he gets KTFO by Jones

[MrClutch85]

B-Hop is already one of the top 5 greatest Middleweights of all time so **** Joe Calzaghe

But how can you say that when the wealth of hopkins prime has been in his later years ?

bernard hopkins is a future hofer who just won a world title at 46 so i think he has enough juice that when he talks people still listen. if i recall the fight correctly, the only significant punch landed was a right hand by hopkins that dropped calzaghe, but HE lost a sd ? and some idiots think it should have been a ud ? stop with the man love on calzaghe. his only claim to fame was beating an overrated jeff lacey and a past their prime bernard hopkins and roy jones and he got drop by both, so that pretty much lets you know how well he would done if wasn't afraid to fight outside of his country and fight those guys in their prime.
