    I cannot remember: who do you think really won the Calzaghe - Hopkins fight?

      i think i had it for calzaghe by a point lemme check my card.........oh no i had it 119-108 calzgahe. he threw more punches in every round and since we all know that's how you score boxing a clear winner.

      just like winky-taylor.

      judge 1- "taylor threw more punches so i had taylor winning"
      judge 2-"yeah but who landed more?"
      scene missing
      announcer- "and still middleweight champ of the world jermainnnnnnnn taylorrrrrrrr"

        I'm surprised our cards are near identical although I did credit Hopkins with a KD.

          i gave him credit but i also gave calzaghe credit for knocking hopkins down with a devastating body shot so that was a 10-8 round.

              it was basically a knockout since hopkins took about a 300 count.

                  Calzaghe would beat Winky's ass and seeing as he is only about 8 lbs bigger and same height, reach that says a lot.

                      calzaghe never fought anyone his biggest win is freaking lacy. you cant be considered a great fighter if you fight literally your entire career in your backyard, fighting the bum of the month, and his fans love him and never in danger of losing. go to vegas to fight jones,hopkins, toney in their prime???? forgetaboutit. dude was a bigger hypejob then pac. still got dropped by a shot to hell roy.
