Very defense hopkins is joe is risking a lot for very little if he beats hopkins which is expected the yanks will say hopkins was past it anyway pavel kelly is the man in the middleweigh now state side even do this is a lightheavy weight fight . I think joe s attacking style will be to much can t wait do. Quote Link to post Share on other sites

stone-cold 0 Posted April 17, 2008 Report Share Posted April 17, 2008 its gonna be close,calzaghe's the younger fighter at 37 which will be a factor,first time outa the uk,can he handle it in the u.s?i think he'll be fine he's proved what he can do and after the fine performance against mikkel kessler will be confident of a win hopkins is a living legend and i believe he's only fought outsideb the u.s once which he lost,he's now 44(i think) has age caught up with him?i think it has good referee is vital,im sure its joe cortez(been around for a very long time) and good judges needed because i can see it going the distance and a win for calzaghe. and i hope he retires after as the best undefeated fighter britains ever seen(should say wales,as hes a proud welshman) Quote Link to post Share on other sites

stone-cold 0 Posted April 17, 2008 Report Share Posted April 17, 2008 your right mark,hopkins is dangerous but calzaghe is faster and should avoid hopkins punching power as hopkins will have lost a little speed JOE CALZAGHE'S A FIGHTER WITH REAL CLASS WATCH OUT BERNHARD CALZAGHE'S THE REAL LEGEND Quote Link to post Share on other sites

Tinman 0 Posted April 17, 2008 Report Share Posted April 17, 2008 I like them both, but think Calzaghe will win. It may be tricky at times, and the fact Joe is going into the lions den and fighting the co promoter of the show in his own back yard is a big RISK... Hopkins, he talks a good fight - but that's all it is, talk. Hopkins is a great boxer and you have to respect him for still being at the top of his game at 43 We've all seen great fighters get outclassed towards the end of their career and I have a strong feeling that it's Hopkins turn this weekend.
