Comments Thread For: Joe Calzaghe Says: Cleverly is Too Dangerous For Hopkins

[Pugilistic™]

Hopkins beats Cleverly decisively.

I like Cleverly but he's nothing special.

No he showed his fear....all through his career, Im sorry but Byron Mitchell and a shot as **** Charles Brewer are not top level victories for me, and against Hop he got a bunk split decision and then ran off to fight shot Jones......Calzaghe is a ****ing joke!

Calzaghe didn't show fear. Did it ever cross your mind that he didnt go to fight in USA sooner because he can't stand the place?

But it's ok for Hopkins to fight a shot Jones? Why use Brewer and Mitchell as examples. What about Eubank. Kessler. Lacy, who every American said would blast Joe out in 3 rounds.

Calzaghe got a got a BS decision against Hopkins? Are you kidding? Joe beat Bhop more convincingly than Taylor did (twice). Calzaghe landed more punches against Bhop than ANY other fighter Bhop has ever faced...and that includes a prime RJJ, prime Glen Johnson, Tito Trinidad, ODLH, Tarver, Pavlik, etc. That little harmless knockdown in the 1st was pretty much all Bhop did in that fight. Bhop is a legend but he legitimately lost to the great Joe C.

Hopkins is way too clever for Cleverly. Cleverly's nothing special. I had the Bellew fight a draw.

“I’ve never heard of his opponent,” Joe explained. “Sometimes I fought guys I have never heard of"

he actually said he was "scared" of flying and that's why he couldn't fight in the usa. his own promoter said this was a lie and he saw joe flying so that's kinda odd. just a coincidence his fake fear goes away after hopkins and jones are mummies....

This is why the world laughs at Brirish boxing fans. You take a yong guy like Cleverly who is undefeated, wins a fringe world title, has fought absolutely zero world class opponents, got a gift decision vs another undefeated british hypejob and the Brits are running their mouths about him being able to handle an ATG like Hopkins! Too funny
