That Hopkins is a cocky prick!
Calsaghe will win easily.
Hopkins is another one of these been there and done it guys...his record speaks for itself. Plus hes 43 years of age...he wants to stick to what he looking after the local communitys back in the US or whatever he does thesedays.
Saw a program on him the other night,seemed like a nice chap anyway
is it defo on at 22.00 will be cleaning over me new gaff but i wanna be back to watch it!!!! Joe to win :yup:
Yea it comes on at 10 but this will be all the build-up to the fight and all the fights on the undercard. Calzaghe will be on around the 3 bells mark.
I've no doubts Joe will win... i'm going for Calzaghe on points convincingly although i can possibly see a late stoppage round 9 upwards....

come on joe! catch us a crumper!
Should be a good fight tho id be suprised if hopkins lasts the 12.
The only problem is hopkins has a cracking body shot.
Also the ref and 3 judges are yanks. The last thing calzaghe wants is for it to go distance.
Calzaghe is a legend. The best british boxer bar none
Obviously,im rooting for Joe, and i think hel win BUT this fight will deffo be is hardest test....if it goes to points( which i think it will,but hope it doesnt) theres a chance of an Hopkins decision,unless Joe totally dominates the majority of the fight....hope he does and then some!
its funny, i've never been so excited about a fight before...i just hope joe gets it right on the night...hes deffo got the tools, he just need to keep it together and bust this mother fvcker!!
setanta is shite an i havnt got my moneys worth out of it so im hoping this fight will do it for me an altho he is welsh am rootin for calzaghe
setanta is a great channel.
Im a lover of the mma and thats o nearly every night, so im well pleased with what they offer
Setanta is way too expensive for Sky customers, can't justify another £10 a month on top of the current outgoings

does anyone know what the time of the offical weigh in? im assuming its gonna be on setanta.
come on joe lad, knock the big headed cunt out
missed the first round with fallin asleep so missed hopkins puttin joe to the canvas,but really thought bernard looked the most dangerous didnt think joe landed any really big punches,he won it on jabs really more punches especially in the later rounds age probably did show,great win for calzaghe but not his best by far an i can understand why hopkins said what he did after the fight interview
Just home from watching it !
The result is what matters to me, go on Joe Calzaghe!
Anyone know where i can see this again for free?
cheers!
garbage fight from two second rate fighters.
shows how low the standard of modern professional boxing is.
Calzaghe wouldnt have lasted two minutes in the 50's/60s/70s.
A small town coward who has spent all his career fighting gypsy has-beens up and down crap venues in the uk avoiding real fighters.
****ing joke.
yea you would say that wouldnt ya!Quote:

The guy made the fight bad and deserved to lose for that reason, altough i thought calzaghe was very lucky to get the judges verdict.
Rematch? More than likely
dude i'm really sorry to tell you this but Calzaghe isn't even Welsh. He was born in London, he just happened to get married some dog-rough Welsh bird.Quote:

because majority of people who post in here are twits with no real personality or intelligence or opinion other than what they have read in the latest men's magazine.Quote:

DJ Fase - I watched it last night and i have watched it again today (straight-headed) and Calzaghe well deserved the win. All Hopkins did was back off, hold and look to counter punch with that straight right. I admit he caught him a couple of times and he is a very akward defensive boxer. He reminds me a bit of Mayweather with his style. But Calzaghe kept coming forward, setting the pace and putting Hopkins on the back foot, Hopkins would not come forward at all. The first 6 rounds were close but after that Calzaghe wins nearly every one imo.
no mate i dont know a lot about boxing. i used to box at an amateur level from the age of 12 to 17, picking up the local belt for south yorkshire. i used to watch all the greats at a time when boxing was much bigger on tv. when you've seen greats like SugarRay Leonard fight, Calzaghe is a weak, wack subsitute, had a lucky career as an awkward southpaw, fighting third-rate opponents.Quote:

Hopkins was clearly goosed by the rounds 7 and 8. And was tiring even before then. Which is why he kept holding.
Calzaghe has fought the best in his boxing career, hessler the last bloke he just fought was a monster and joe was lucky to come through that , but outboxed him.
Joe Calzaghe is the best in his weight and now the weigh above, if the boxers in these weights aratron are crap you can hardly blame joe. Hes boxed the best over the years within his weight and now the weight above.
Thats all the man can do...
Hes Still A Legend and laughs at Ricky Hatton.
I suggest Aratron you watch his last fight against the danish geezer and then maybe come back and slate him...
i laughed at 'tron's comments on this thread, sorry Calv
Couldn’t agree more, in fact I thought Kessler was a much tougher opponent than Hopkins, he was quick and strong and he was only 28 and Calzaghe still managed to out box him!Quote:

there was one funny bit in the fight, round 10 I think when Joe was behind Hopkins pretending to botty bash him.....fvckin classic!!
Kessler was a beast. Reminded me of the russian boxer in Rocky IV.Quote:

Haha sit down sly, before you fall down
Aratron your little hero Roy Jones Junior just come out and said Joe Calzaghe is the best pound for pound fighter in the world after Floyd Mayweather!
Now who's chattin shit and doesn't know about their boxing...
roy jones jr is also a bit over the hill :)
okay dude. you don't know any better.Quote:
